Usage Features:

Main Knob:

Power On/Off: Hold the main knob to power the device on or off.
Wireless Pairing: Double-click the main knob for wireless pairing (indicated by a blinking light ring).
Tone Switching: Single-click the main knob to switch between preset tone banks.
Speaker Volume: Rotate the main knob to adjust the onboard speaker volume (this does not affect the output jack volume).

Volume Knob / Coil Switch:

Pickup Output Volume: Adjusts the overall output volume of the pickups.
Coil Switching (Neck Pickup): Pull the knob to switch the neck pickup coil from a series to a parallel connection. In parallel mode, the dual-coil pickup yields a single-coil-like tone with less noise. This affects the output level to the next stage, not the total output, thus influencing the final tone.

Pickup Selector Switch (3-Way Toggle):

Position 1: Bridge pickup for bright tones.
Position 2: Middle/Bridge-Neck combination for balanced tones.
Position 3: Neck pickup for warm tones.

App Integration (Enya Music App):

Download: Download the Enya Music app for an enhanced playing and user experience.
Device Connection: After logging in, the app scans for nearby Enya smart audio devices. Connect to the Nova Go Sonic for editing. Multiple devices can be renamed for easier identification.
Tone Preset Management:
- Banks: The Nova Go Sonic has four preset storage groups (Banks), indicated by the main knob's light in green, blue, cyan, and purple. These can be switched by clicking the main knob.
- Presets: Within each bank, there are four preset data (Presets) that can only be selected and switched through the app.
- Switching Presets: Click the upper circular area in the app to change banks. Tap the lower image area to select a preset within the current bank. Selected banks and presets will be highlighted.
- Preset Editing: After selecting a preset, you can:
  - View the currently active bank and preset.
  - Edit the effect parameters for the current preset.
  - Replace the current preset with one from the cloud library.
  - Rename the current tone preset and edit its image.
  - Upload the current preset to the cloud.
Preset Replacement: In the "Guitar Tones" section of the app, select a preset file and click "Replace" to open the cloud tone library. You can choose between "Custom Tones" and "Official Tones." Click "Replace" to download your selection. In "Custom Tones," you can search by author or tone name. Replacing a preset will overwrite existing data at that location.
Preset Parameter Editing: In the "Guitar Tones" menu, select a preset and click "Edit" to adjust its parameters. The Nova Go Sonic has six effects: Noise Reduction, Speaker Simulation, EQ, Modulation, Delay, and Reverb.
- Knob Adjustment: Rotate knobs clockwise to increase and counterclockwise to decrease parameters.
- EQ Adjustment: Slide EQ faders up to increase and down to decrease.
- Effects Chain: Click to select and adjust effects. A highlighted module indicates selection.
- Effect On/Off: Slide to turn effects on/off. Inactive modules appear higher and darker.
Effect Type Switching: When selecting certain effect modules, options appear in the top left, indicating multiple effect types. Switchable modules include:
- Modulation (MOD): Chorus, Tremolo, and Vibrato.
- Amplifier (AMP): Deluxe (Clean) and SLO (Distortion).
Tone Saving: After adjusting a tone, use the "Save" button in the top right corner to store the preset, replace its image, and rename it. If changes are detected, clicking the back button prompts a save confirmation. If saved without a custom image, the system automatically updates the image in the app. The system supports input of English letters and some special characters for naming.

Maintenance Features:

String Replacement:

Remove the rubber strap on the back of the body to access the string holes.
Remove and install new strings through the holes.
Tighten the strings and wind them around the tuning knobs to complete the replacement.

Neck Adjustment:

The Nova Go Sonic's neck is made of carbon fiber, offering better stability than wood. However, prolonged exposure to certain environments may still cause deformation.
For users who prefer personalized string action, the Nova Go Sonic retains a traditional guitar truss rod for neck adjustment. A truss rod adjusting wrench is included for this purpose.
