Eventide H9

One Pedal to Rule them All

Every guitar pedal you need in one pedal, the H9 Harmonizer® is full of Eventide’s iconic reverb, chorus, delay, modulation and pitch-shifting effects. The award-winning design of the H9 Harmonizer features a simple, one-knob user interface which allows easy effect editing and preset selection. Two onboard footswitches let you change presets, tap tempo, and bypass with your feet during live performance.

The H9 offers studio quality sound, stereo I/O and full MIDI compatibility. With the free H9 Control app for pc, mac and iOS, you can purchase additional algorithms, create set lists, edit and manage presets wirelessly via Bluetooth.

Features

The H9 can run all of the effect algorithms from our TimeFactor (delay), ModFactor (modulation), PitchFactor (pitch shifting), and Space (reverb) pedals as well as some created just for the H9.

• True analog bypass
• Real-time MIDI control
• Power supply included
• MIDI via DIN and USB
• Fast accurate tuner included
• Expression pedal and AUX footswitch input
• Sync to the beat with tap tempo or MIDI

Compare H9, H9 Core, H9 MAX

All H9 Models have the same hardware. The only difference between the models is the number of effect algorithms that come with the device.

• H910/H949 algorithm
• 25 factory presets

H9

Greatest Hits Preloaded with 9 effect algorithms and 99 presets.

• H9 Exclusive: UltraTap Delay
• Space: Shimmer & Hall
• PitchFactor: Crystals & H910/H949
• ModFactor: Chorus & Tremolo
• TimeFactor: Tape Echo & Vintage Delay

• 99 factory presets

Terminology: Algorithm, Preset, Effect

Effect

An effect is something that alters a sound in a specific way. Examples include eq, reverb, delay, wah, phaser, etc. Effects often have parameters that can be changed to customize the way the sound is altered. Examples include repeats for delay, gain for wah, intensity for phaser, etc.

Algorithm

An algorithm is a combination of effects specifically arranged to provide a more custom sound. We make the distinction between effect and algorithm because algorithms often include more than one effect, each having parameters that can be changed. The combinations of these effects and parameters can used to create unique and original sounds that wouldn't otherwise be possible with single effects. Examples include Filter Pong, ModFilter, HarModulator, Reverse Reverb, etc.

Preset

A preset is an algorithm saved with its parameters. The H9 comes with presets to give you an idea of what is possible and of course you can create your own. An example would be Bridge of Sighs, which is a preset created using the Digital Delay algorithm. The Digital Delay algorithm combines a stereo delay effect with a modulation effect. Another example is Fra Diavolo, which is a preset created using the CrushStation algorithm. The CrushStation algorithm combines the following effects: overdrive, octave shift, noise gate, compressor and dying battery emulator (sag).

H9 Control

H9 Control is the ultimate tool for optimizing your experience with all the Eventide stompboxes. Use it to manage preset lists, update firmware, configure an auxilliary switch, listen to demos without hardware, backup your settings and more. H9 Control not only gives you incredible control over parameters and settings, but it encourages you to explore new sonic territory. Fold, spindle and even mutilate your sound and experience what it's like to be inspired by your gear.

H9 Control runs on Windows, Mac and iOS, connects wirelessly via Bluetooth to the H9 and using a USB cable to connect to the Space, PitchFactor, TimeFactor and Modfactor stompboxes and is available for free.
