Product reviewsTC Electronic Nova System Tuner Guitar Effect Pedal

Best tuner Ever! Well made, clear read out!

Great price. I love the clear visual readout. If you are a beginner musician.. a strobe tuner like this would not be something I would suggest. This picks up overtones and isn’t for the faint of heart!Read full review...

To nova multi effects

Very hard to operate. Need a science degree! Was very disappointed and sold off immediately.

Awesome accurate and fast

I bought this to replace my BOSS TU-3. It's smaller, more accurate and faster. It's small, bright and easy to see. Worth every penny. It also works as a great mute switch too.

Nova system

First off, I gave this unit a rating of good because while the sound quality is excellent,the switching is kinda lame. Engineers and their bright ideas, thinking that it was ok to make an on the floor pedal board that you have to hold down a button for 5 seconds before the bank or preset will change, thats just stupid. The sound quality though is awesome. The pitch shifter is super fast, there is no hunting for the shifted note ( as the boss gt8 gt10 and other multi effects units do ). Delay and reverb is clear as a bell. I do recommend this unit but if you want on the fly bank changing you'll probably need an external midi pedal like a midi mouse. Effects quality beats boss and line6 effects hands down.Read full review...

Best multi effect pedal under 500.00

The great thing about the Nova System is the ability to turn off and on each effect within each preset. It's like having 60 pedalboards at your feet, all customizable, with expression pedal and midi inputs to make navigating the presets a breeze. Another HUGE plus- it's really easy to tweak on the fly. If you want to change the delay, press the delay button, then tweak with the parameter knobs, then press store. Done.
I've heard that it's easier to use than it's big brother, the G-System, but of course doesn't do everything that the G-system can do.
What I don't like- no power button, when it's plugged in, it's on. But that's a minor complaint and has nothing to do with it's excellent sounds. Then only other complaint is that it doesn't have a patch editor or library available online. Otherwise, LOVE IT.Read full review...

Nova

Great compact system. I have it my effects loop of my 5150 50s A/Bd with an 11r. I can take both if the gig calls for it or just the Nova and the EVH for smaller setups or just jamming. The web site has good support and information of programming, setup, and patch settings to get you started.Read full review...

Very good tuner

Great tuner. Completes the peddle board. Very cool and easy to use.

TC NOVA System-Best "Bang for the Buck"of any guitar-oriented multi-effect system on the planet

I just sold a Fractal FX8 on Ebay for $1150 and bought another TC NOVA System. I'd previously sold my NOVA System to buy a couple Eventide H9s. Then I sold the H9s ad bought the Fractal FX8. After 6 months of using the latter 2 way more expensive, and thus supposedly better fx systems, I really missed my NOVA System, which , to my ears, educated by 30+ years as a professional touring freelance guitarist for over 100 major-label artists, simply sounds superior , and is far easier to use effectively than product of its kind ever made to this point. That's the straight-up truth as I've experienced itRead full review...

Must have tuner for every musician

very reliable, user friendly for guitar or bass.
4/5/6 strings bass is easily recognized by the tuner.
Eb Db tuning is also easy.
but be aware that the polytune mini requires very small electric current, it needs 9 volt and
46 miliampere / 0,046 ampere it is less than half the usual current for the usual pedal/stompbox (0,1 ampere)Read full review...

Great quality and sound! Awesome effects board at a killer price!

I just got my Nova System and I must say it's great! The build quality is top notch, easy to use, sounds great... all in all the best effects unit for the price, hands down.

I liked the fact that it's very straight forward from the moment you unpack it. Can't wait to go play it some more!Read full review...

Best Pedal i've ever used

Awesome Pedal,awesome seller, best on eBay.If you want a pedal,that is easy to learn how to use,with all your favorite effects,buy the Nova System pedal,cause isn't too expensive,actually,it's cheap for the quality of the sound.This pedal is almost a compact version of his big brother,the G system,I've used a G-System,and i'm not gonna lie to you,the Nova pedal it's not the same,but some effects have the same quality,for example the reverb and delay. I just didn't liked the overdrive a lot,but the delay,reverb,phaser,shifter,wham,everything is AWESOME!!
Hope you enjoy the T.C Electronics Nova SystemRead full review...
