TC Electronic SNEAK PEEK
ND- 1 Nova Delay
Beginning with an infatuation with noise and frequencies, the Danish
duo of Kim and John Rishøj created TC Electronic in 1976. While
TC initially only dealt with guitar pedals and effects, the evolution
of technology and TC’s expertise has enabled the company to grow
into a giant. Boasting employees in 15 countries, TC Electronic is
now a major player in digital processing, recording, post-production
and even video, although the heart of the company remains in guitar
effects. The developers at TC recently took a classic – the TC 2290
Dynamic Digital Delay – and used it as a starting point for the new
ND- 1 Nova Delay, a pedal that redefines the phrase, “all good things
come in small packages.”
Built upon a time-tested foundation, the Nova Delay isn’t simply a
retread of past success; the ND- 1 offers some of the most innovative
features available in today’s effects market. All-new Audio Tapping
technology enables players to set the tempo of the delay by playing
a rhythm into the pedal while holding down the Tap Tempo switch.
Other Nova Delay features include the ability to choose between
milliseconds and BPM readout; a Color control, which allows you to
move between analog, digital and tape delay sounds; and delay spillover mode, which allows the delay repeats to continue, even when
the preset or mode is changed.
The ND- 1 Nova Delay also features:
• Six studio quality digital delay types
• Two switchable settings: manual and preset
• Nine user-programmable presets
• Up to 2290 ms delay time
• Modulated delay
Still, perhaps the most significant attribute the ND- 1 Nova Delay
offers is the minimal tweaking and adjusting required to locate those
classic tones – they come out so freely it’s nearly a crime! Head inside
