Eventide Takes Three Iconic Hardware Effects To iOS

Eventide have taken some of their iconic hardware effects units to iOS with three new apps/effects – Blackhole Reverb, UltraTap Delay and MicroPitch – all of which are available as an Audio Unit AUv3 plugin, Inter-App Audio and Standalone App.

MicroPitch
MicroPitch is a fine-resolution pitch shifter for subtle tone fattening, plus delays for interesting slap back effects. With origins in the legendary Eventide H3000 Harmonizer®, MicroPitch is the effect that put Eventide on the map. The plug-in allows mixing in detuned and delayed versions of a signal creating depth and dimensions not possible before with expanded controls for deep pitch dives, haunting echoes, and pristine chorusing effects.

MicroPitch Features

• Two voices of pitch shifting, one from unison to -50 cents, the other from unison to +50 cents, each with up to 2 seconds of delay.
• Create classic stereo-spreading effect.
• Create slapback effects using longer delay times.
• Mod Depth and Rate provide chorusing effect on each voice.
• Use Feedback to perform pitch dive or rise effects.
• Incredibly easy use with included presets.
• Innovative Ribbon allow for changing any combination of parameters simultaneously.
• Use Mix Lock to scroll through presets while keeping the wet-dry mix constant.
• Available as an Audio Units AUv3 plug-in, Inter-App Audio, and Standalone App.

UltraTap Delay
UltraTap is a unique multi-tap effect capable of rhythmic delays, glitchy reverbs, huge pad-like volume swells and extraordinary modulation. It’s the perfect tool for creating drum fills, vocal choruses, swelling guitar chords and other evolving effects — everything from reversed reverbs to a massed church choir singing a Gregorian chant in Notre-Dame Cathedral.

UltraTap Delay Features

• Use up to 64 taps to create simple repeats or morph delays into choruses and reverbs.
• Speed up or slow down the rhythmic spacing between taps using the Spread knob.
• Use the onboard LFOs and envelopes to chop the sound source into stuttered rhythms.
• Use the innovative “Slurm” control to smear taps together or modulate them to create truly unique reverbs.
• Control the stereo image of taps to alternate between hard-panned and mono.
• Over 150 presets designed to inspire; including artist presets by Chris Carter, Colin Newman, Sasha and many more.
• Innovative Ribbon and Hotswitch allow for changing any combination of parameters simultaneously.
• Use Mix Lock to scroll through presets while keeping the wet-dry mix constant.
• Available as an Audio Units AUv3 plug-in, Inter-App Audio, and Standalone App.

Blackhole Reverb
Create out of this world ambiance with Blackhole, a reverb effect as big as the cosmos. Blackhole breaks the rules by allowing you to create virtual spaces that could never exist in reality. At large sizes, its soft attack and lingering, harmonic tails allow it to really shine on guitars, strings, vocals and pads. At small sizes those very same qualities can add an angelic sheen to vocals or turn a simple drum track into an otherworldly rhythm section.

Blackhole Reverb Features

• Incredibly easy to use with over 80 presets; many created by Eventide artists.
• Ability to create extremely musical effects useful for highlighting key instruments.
• Supernatural settings for abstract spatial effects and drones.
• Subtle settings for ambient washes and track highlighting.
• Unique “Gravity” control reverses the arrow of time by inverting the reverb’s decay.
• Innovative Ribbon and Hotswitch allow for changing any combination of parameters simultaneously.
• Fully flexible mono and stereo options. Bring new realms of stereo imaging to mono instruments.
• Mixlock allows for scrolling through presets or settings while keeping the wet/dry mix constant.
• Available as an Audio Units AUv3 plug-in, Inter-App Audio, and Standalone App.
