I’m just a bit occupied with Eventide’s excellent Misha modular sequencer at the moment. There are more options in the software, too, though I’m encouraged to see more on-device editing because… yeah, at some point if you’re using the software too much, you start to think about just using plug-ins. So the H90 suits not only instruments, but digital rigs, synths, modular, whatever. ![]() In PERFORM mode, you can tap tempo, tap in a freeze or pitch flex or delay repeat, and HotSwitch through presets. You get give push knobs, seven LED buttons, hi-re OLED, and options for navigating presets or triggering performance options. Having more control is also a big deal, and overdue. But this is looks to be a uniquely well-formed package. And before I’m too quick to say the hardware bests the software in value, once you do have plug-ins you can add a lot more than two algorithms at once – that much is clear. There are certainly cheaper takes on all these algorithms in both hardware and software. (Going on a tangent, here’s a great read from a builder who got into their own hardware inspired by that design.)īut to that, you add Instant Phaser, Instant Flanger, and SP2016 vintage room/plate reverb with its… own epic history. WeedWacker is a two-stage serial overdrive “reminiscent of a famous green pedal.” They can’t say Ibanez, but I can. Boutique Delay is a BBD with modulation, if you didn’t guess, but it’s specifically tuned here with both modern and vintage options and an eye to performance. Head Space is a vintage four-head tape delay with some modern twists. (It’s new, and yet very Eventide H-series.)Įven-Vibe emulates Uni-Vibe in stereo with envelope followers. Prism Shift takes a single chord and transforms it into three voices that unfold across time and register. The new algorithms are some of the most compelling from Eventide, too. (If it weren’t, I’d probably quit the sound thing and do something useful and lucrative with my life.) And despite all the ways that DSP theoretically should be commoditized, this remains an arcane, wonderful craft, from how the algorithms are coded to how parameters and presets are voiced. It’s part of an evolution of their work in DSP that stretches back now decades. I was excited by what Eventide was doing with ARM from the first time I saw the platform in beta development at a technical conference in Berlin. Dual-mode processes two independent stereo signals at once (that’s the one that gets me – this is more than just a single stereo processor).True spillover between Programs, series and parallel effect routing.Use it as either two separate mono inserts or one stereo insert.So this is what they call SIFT (Spectral Instantaneous Frequency Tracking) – and it gives you new, responsive, polyphonic pitch shifting. ![]() New low-latency polyphonic pitch shift.10 new effect algorithms: Polyphony, Prism Shift, Bouquet Delay, Head Space, Weedwacker, Even-vibe, Wormhole, Instant Flanger, Instant Phaser, and SP2016 Reverb.The H90 offers some good reasons to upgrade and, despite the higher price, might well have enough added functionality to tempt people to the platform for the first time, too. (That also covers upgrade and support paths if you do have one of the H9 family.) That platform, though, hit the parts shortage and a changing customer model. The H9 MAX made that a pretty strong value, especially when Eventide did away with the store model and just crammed everything in the hardware. To be fair, the H9 is no slouch – and might be about to become a smart bargain buy on the used market, especially, since it still has 52 effects algorithms and MIDI DIN/USB. It does all of this right out of the box – with a slightly larger size also accommodating more hands-on control, which was always my gripe about the H9. The H90 is the first to inherit the ARM-based architecture of Eventide’s flagship DSP box. At US$899 with this many tools inside, it even rivals plug-in suites for value.Īnd when I say this is a pint-sized H9000, I mean that literally. Think of the new H90 as a baby H9000 – all the latest Eventide digital processing powers in a compact size. It’s more than a dual-algorithm successor to the H9. ![]()
