NovaDrive is a professional multi-mode distortion plugin featuring three legendary saturation engines and powerful SuperSitter spatial positioning. Get desktop-class processing with tube warmth, high-gain distortion, or analog saturation, plus unique forward/back spatial control that moves sounds closer or further in your mix as easy as panning left/right! A Revolution! Works amazingly in Logic Pro, GarageBand, Cubasis, and all AUv3 hosts.
Three Legendary Distortion Modes:
Overdrive - Classic tube-style warmth and dynamics. Soft Clip for smooth transparency or Classic Saturation for vintage character with simulated power supply sag. Excellent for blues, rock, country, and clean boost.
Distortion - Aggressive, tight, and brutally powerful. Driven Tube for focused control or Modern High-Gain for multi-stage clarity.
Awesome for metal, punk, hard rock, and extreme fuzz tones.
Saturation - Subtle warmth to full analog character. Tube Saturation for transparent mastering warmth or Tape Saturation for compression and analog glue. Perfect for mastering, parallel processing, and vintage vibe.
Intelligent Tone Shaping:
Drive - Distortion intensity with mode-optimized ranges for each character
Tone - Adaptive pre/post EQ that intelligently complements each mode
Style - Seamlessly blend between two unique algorithms per mode for vast tonal variations
Gain - Extra control of input level that works with the Drive for volume compensation
Mix - Parallel processing from subtle enhancement to full saturation
Output - Final gain stage (-12dB to +12dB) for precise level matching
SuperSitter Spatial Technology:
Our exclusive psychoacoustic SuperSitter system easily moves sounds forward or back in your mix, as intuitive as left/right panning! Forward brings sounds closer with intelligent enhancement. Back creates warm distance with spatial processing.
Visual feedback shows exact position in real-time.
20 Professional Presets:
Expertly crafted presets covering blues to extreme distortion. Each preset remembers settings for all three modes, giving you 60 total starting points!
Plus, unlimited global user presets for saving and recalling your custom settings instantly and across multiple DAWs on your device
Advanced Sidechain Control:
Route sidechain to dynamically control drive intensity or spatial positioning. Precise threshold, attack, release, and mix controls with self-signal capability (DAW dependent).
Optimized for iOS/iPadOS Production:

Comments
Looks wild! And sounds too:
Appreciate the Sag aspects being included for bias type stuff, and the sidechaining features seem cool. Excited to hear more demos that are sure to come. Another interesting release from a new(ish) dev!
I'm liking the look of his AUs.
I purchased "Super Sitter" and used it for "dummy vocals" for my girlfriend to learn and sing an upcoming release. Works great for pushing vocals forward when layering on top of an instrumental track as well as pushing the instrumental back just a smidge.
I really liked the first handful of apps from the dev like PulseRipper and GhostChorus because it combined two effects. I kind of wish these apps had gone that route by combining the Compressor + Limiter and then this distortion + supper sitter. Unless I’m missing some kind of interaction happening with the spatial acoustic simulations interacting with the effect being applied in-app couldn’t you do the same thing with SuperSitter applied in the signal chain?
I’m enjoying the effects a lot and think the dev has good design implementation. This doesn’t dissuade me from the apps, but these last three feel less unique/creative than the first few.
The way the AppStore reads, I think those/this are more “professional” effects, I guess like you would find in a daw like logic. Could be wrong, I’m no professional haha. And agreed, his more creative stuff is more my speed
The limiter and distortion both have super sitter integrated
I'll chime in with the choir on his UI designs: beautiful! Another distortion engine, nah I'm good thank you.
Tried the app on 3 iOS synths
So what are the experiences with this app since its on sale now.
It’s okay. I haven’t been blown away by any of the Nova apps. Loved the first three rounds of apps, but these don’t get much use from me. I don’t like how Supersit is tacked onto all of them - makes the standalone Supersitter feel redundant and each of these feel less special than the blend of two fx from GhostChorus, PulseRipper, and EchoFlower.
Hate to be "that guy" but is there a user manual available for this app? Can’t seem to find one online.
