Sorry to revive this old thread, but I just watched that video:

And it sounds quite good. So any one here owns one??? Comments/reviews?

The Nova System does sound good; however, the one I had was extremely unreliable. It was one of the early ones and they had chip problems...hopefully TC has worked out the kinks because it would have been a really nice unit.

Very first time I used mine, it crashed twice. Then it went a few rehearsals with no issues, so I decided to use it at a gig. Big mistake. Two measures into our second song...crash...reboot...crash...reboot...crash.

Luckily, while I was fucking with it, the rest of the band kept playing and the guitarist from the other band ran up on stage, grabbed my analog pedal board and helped me get back up and running fairly quickly.

I later moved to a G-Major rack unit and now I'm using an Eleven Rack. So much more happy with the 11R right now to be honest.

HaHa, Nova in Spanish means "Wont go" or in terms of astronomy means blown up star. Didnt anyone learn from Chevy?? Tisk, tisk!!:ROTF:

I've been testing one out for a couple of months and I find it works pretty good and the sounds are great. Having analog distortion is cool as you can run the unit in front of an amp. Have an intelligent pitch shifter that tracks well is an added bonus. My only qualm about the unit is the patch switching delay - extremely noticable. So, I just set the unit up to run in pedal mode and turn on individual fx's like a stomp box pedalboard.

IIRC, I don't think it was as noticable if you run it through the effects loop; however, you lose the analog distortion function if you run it that way.

Good to see they have corrected the chip problems...it's a pretty nice little unit...when it works!

I've been using one for a year and it has worked flawlessly. Shop around and you can find some great prices on these units.
