NOVA Dynamics – Contents Under Pressure
A high quality dual engine compression and noise gate stomp box, packed with never before seen functionalities:
NOVA Dynamics sets new standards for floor-based dynamics control. Its dual engine design offers a variety of setup
and control options that allow you to tailor NOVA Dynamics to fit your rig. Use the two engines for different
compression settings or switch between stomp compression for that classic “squash” and TC’s advanced multiband
compression for subtle, studio-style dynamics control. You can even split the NOVA Dynamics’ two engines, allowing
you to use a compressor in front of your amp and a noise gate in your amp’s effects loop for true noise reduction of
high gain signals. The Dry Blend feature lets you blend your dry signal in with the compressed signal. This gives you
an optimized attack without eating into the dynamics. At the same time, the automatic input gain adjustment on both
engines provides perfect settings for e.g. both a Strat and a Les Paul at the flick of a switch.
Brings control to any guitar rig
NOVA Dynamics Features
• 2 Compressor Modes: Studio and Stomp
• Noise Gate
• Dual Engine Design
• Dry Blend – Parallel Compression
• Flexible Routing
• Auto Input Gain Adjustment
• Precise Gain Reduction Meter
INTRODUCTION
SETUP EXAMPLE: MONO + DUAL PROCESSING
5
In this setup, the two engines can be used
individually or serially. You can use two
compressors, two noise gates, or one of each at
the same time.
• Connect your guitar to input A of the NOVA
Dynamics.
• Connect output A of the NOVA Dynamics to
the input of your guitar amp.
• Activate engine A and/or B and select the
desired compression type and/or noise gate
algorithm.
• That’s all!
Note: For best signal to noise ratio, calibrate the
pedal according to the level of the input signal.
For further information, refer to this manual’s
“Calibration” section.
6
SETUP EXAMPLE: SINGLE INPUT – DUAL OUTPUT
In this setup, the guitar signal on input A is
fed to both engines A and B. This means that
the two channels are processed 100 %
separately.
Please note that this is not a stereo setup.
• Connect your guitar to input A of the
NOVA Dynamics.
• Connect output A of the NOVA Dynamics
to the input of one amp.
• Connect output B to the input of another
amp.
You can now use the two engines like two
completely separate pedals for processing
your guitar’s sound.
Note: For best signal to noise ratio, calibrate
the pedal according to the level of the input
signal. For further information, refer to this
manual’s “Calibration” section.
7
SETUP EXAMPLE: PRE & POST PROCESSING
In this example, we are using the two engines
of NOVA Dynamics in two different places in a
signal chain. One engine is used in front of the
pre-amp for compression, while the other is
being used in the effects-loop as a noise gate.
• Connect your guitar to input A of the NOVA
Dynamics.
• Connect output A of the NOVA Dynamics to
the amp’s regular input.
• Connect the “Send” jack of the effect loop to
input B of the NOVA Dynamics.
• Connect output B of the NOVA Dynamics to
the “Return” jack of the effects loop.
Note: For best signal to noise ratio, calibrate the
pedal according to the level of the input signal.
You will love the fact that each engine of the
NOVA Dynamics has its own individual level
calibration. For further information, refer to this
manual’s “Calibration” section.
8
SETUP EXAMPLE: DUAL INPUTS
In this setup, we utilize the NOVA Dynamics’
auto-sensing inputs to connect two guitars at
the same time. This allows for individual level
calibration of the inputs, which is a great
advantage if e.g. you want to use two guitars
which have very different output levels due to
different pick-up configurations. This might be
the case if there are passive single coils on
one guitar and active humbuckers on the
other. Furthermore, you save an A/B switch
in your setup.
• Connect two guitars to the inputs A and B
of the NOVA Dynamics.
• Connect output A of the NOVA Dynamics
to the input of your amp.
• Be sure to turn down the volume
potentiometer on the guitar not currently
in use.
Note: For best signal to noise ratio, calibrate
your guitars individually. For further
information, refer to this manual’s
“Calibration” section.

CONNECTIONS
1 – Power
The NOVA Dynamics requires 12V DC 300 mA. Use
the power supply provided in the product box.
2 – Input Jacks
These are ¼" mono jack connectors for signal input.
NOVA Dynamics operates as two independent pedals
with various possible combinations. Two different
guitars can be connected to inputs A and B.
Always use input A if you connect only one guitar.
When a guitar or other signal source is connected to
input B, inputs A and B can be calibrated individually.
3 – Output Jacks
These are ¼" mono jack connectors which carry the
signals from channels A and B.
Switches
4 & 5 – On/Off Switches
In “normal” mode (when the A/B button is turned off),
these switches operate as standard on/off switches for
engines A and B.
In “A/B” mode (when the A/B button is lit), you can
toggle between engine A and B simply by pressing
either switch A or B.
