TC Electronic announces that its Nova Drive pedal is now shipping

Nova Drive is TC Electronic's incredible new programmable analog

overdrive and distortion pedal. It features the same awesome

analog drive circuit as the acclaimed Nova System and has full

digital control. Nova Drive is therefore the ultimate distortion

and overdrive pedal, offering the best of both worlds: sonic

excellence combined with total control. On top of the superb

tone, Nova Drive has excellent preset and control options that

ensure guitarists don't have to rebuild their set-ups from

scratch to use it. The pedal also comes packed with 18 killer

sounding factory presets, meaning that guitarists will be ready

to rock in no time at all.

Nova Drive features two totally separate overdrive and distortion

circuits that can be used separately or combined to offer a

wealth of classic, spine-tingling, old school sounds. These are

partnered with total digital control that enables guitarists to

store up to 18 of their favorite sounds and to integrate Nova

Drive into their set-ups and tailor their sound with total

precision.

The dedicated distortion section offers a wide range of tones,

from subtle, punchy driving distortion to screaming fuzz. And for

added control it also features a 2-band EQ section for precise

shaping of distorted sounds. Nova Drive's distortion character is

best typified as raw but, like the overdrive section, it

preserves the original character of the sound.

The overdrive section delivers everything from clean boost with a

little extra 'oomph' through Bluesy sting and smooth tube-like

break-up, to heavy, all-out crunch. It is the perfect place to

find added sustain for existing sounds and to supercharge any

tone into classic territory.

With Nova Drive, guitarists finally have a place to create, store

and recall all the distorted and overdriven sounds they could

ever need.
