- Опубліковано 27 чер 2024
- Completing the powerful trilogy forged by the B9 and C9 Organ Machines, the Electro-Harmonix KEY9 emulates the world’s most coveted electric pianos and more. With 9 presets, you can transform your axe and lay down a cool “Riders on the Storm” style groove or some hot funk ala “What’d I Say!”
The KEY9 transforms the tone of a guitar and/or keyboard into a convincing electric piano emulation, including several variations of the classic Rhodes and Wurlitzer sounds. The KEY9 also features lively recreations of vibes, mallets, an organ, and even steel drums! Based on the popular EHX B9 and C9 pedals, the KEY9 swerves into electro-acoustic territory via knobs that control DRY and KEY volume, as well as preset-specific features that are adjusted with the CTRL 1 and CTRL 2 knobs.
Take it from Mike Matthews who says: “You’ll dig the way the KEY9 turns you into a Rhodes Scholar!”
Watch effects guru, Bill Ruppert, demonstrate the Electro-Harmonix KEY9 electric piano machine in this EHX pedal demo.
Quick specs:
- Transforms the tone of your guitar or keyboard
- 9 presets that were carefully crafted to emulate classic Wurlitzer® and Rhodes® sounds, plus more
- Presets provide control of the fundamental parameters that help define that instrument’s sound
- Many presets include adjustable modulation such as tremolo, phaser and chorus
- Use it with the B9 and C9 Organ Machines to create your own powerful keyboard rig
- Fast and flawless tracking
- Power adapter included

lol @ 9:00 I would buy 2 of these if I didn’t already have a midi guitar... and I still might buy one!
cool pedal but the guitarist is the real star of this video...that guy is a phenomenal talent!
Thanks Jake!
You can't even imagine what this marvel can do with an Electric Oud. Thanks!
Sure, but you can't buy him.
truly
@@moreblack Ask him about if he is organ donator? I want his left hand :)
EHX are the NASA of sound. True pioneers.
Bumblefritz And unlike NASA EH does not "Destroy their old technology" lmfao.
@Jijii So woke!! 🤣
3 gigs under my belt with this, people asked me who played keys. Could not believe it was a guitar!
+Custom Strat That is so great to hear!
Same!
great..man.. happy days..
sweet
Cool!
Holy hell this amazing. The Goyte part was awesome, but Riders on the Storm gave me chills how perfect that was.
NOT ONLY IS THIS PEDAL BAD ASS BUT COME ON YOU GOT TO GIVE IT TO BILL RUPERT! man you sir are an amazing guitar player!
Seriously. I never get tired of hearing him play.
This pedal is amazing and so is the guitarist demoing it.
the most impressive and versatile pedal in this range so far!!
No way! Wassup moot! I actually thought of your playing when I watched this
+mootbooxle I haven't visited your channel in years. Thanks for teaching everyone how to make a Ghetto Talkbox!

Hey! You're welcome! You should come visit...There's quite a bit more interesting stuff going on now, synthesizers, harpsichords, funk, effects pedal reviews...
mootbooxle Cool. Will do!
I love the cover of Bob James' Angela (the theme from Taxi) here! Great choice to demo this sweet effect
Just played a live gig with this thing. Fabulous! EHX really have pulled out all the 'organ' stops with this. B9, C9 and KEY9 really are the tools we have been looking for. Midi - you just lost the war! You will need a noise gate, but once again EHX has an answer for that as well with the Silencer. Top products, top guys, top sounds. I've never sounded better!
When he started playing No Quarter, I lost my shit. Great pedal!!!
Great demo. I'm a keyboard player that also plays guitar and the key in using this properly is to play it like a keyboard. It's the same when a keyboard play wants to sound like a guitar you have to play it with the dynamics of a guitar. Well done with this demo.
step one to having a good demo: good guitarist. really shows off the pedal
This guy is just about the best guitarist I've ever seen on UA-cam
These pedals are absolutely UNREAL. I honestly can't believe my ears.
Saying "Fantastic Job EHX" feels like an understatement. But that's all I've got.
P.S. - Nice Kemper. :D
Sold! EHX makes the best demo vids by using a solid, versatile player. The chops are there to show the full potential of the unit. Excellent job, EHX & Bill Ruppert!
Keep putting out awesome pedals EHX. You guys are the only ones constantly innovating these days and I'm proud to own your products! Kudos to Mike and the gang at EHX!
This is the best demo i've ever seen in my entire life
WOW. Great sounds, great playing, TONS of potential!
Mesmerizing playing with a stunning sounding pedal! Thanks for the demo and the joy of your skills!
what an awesome idea, EHX. keep these little great boxes coming!
Bill and his magic fingerings win again. Great demo - I could listen to the walking bass stuff all day. Cool pedal. I think EHX has really stumbled across a winning formula here. Loved the Taxi theme guitar arrangement.
+aliensporebomb Thank you Todd!
Holy crap, I want one
^
Eddie C lol i think theyre over it
The demo is just awesome 👏 I bought a Key9 and it's a VIBE. My all time favourite 🖤
3:20 was so impressive
At last. Well worth the wait. Thanks EHX.
2:50, JPJ, mind = blown. Bill dials in so many awesome examples. Thanks EHX for this awesome tool. Can't wait!
I purchased the B9 Organ Machine when it first came out and was praying that EHX would come out with this pedal, and they did. I love it and it will always remain a part of my rig!!!!!
the "9" series is easily the best set of pedals ever made when it comes to modulations/effects.
Absolutely brilliant. The pedal is excellent but the playing, I take my hat off to you sir! Apart from you being a superb guitarist, the way you have adapted your playing to put your head into a keyboard player is very impressive. This is not simply playing a different sound with the guitar it's a different mind set altogether IMHO.
This pedal sounds AMAZING!!!
Probably the best pedal demo I've ever seen (and I've seen a lot!).
Nice Beck! Great demo. Definitely adding this to my C9.
Wonderful presentation, one of the best video ever on the tube
This is an fabulous demonstration of an absolutely fabulous pedal!
Yes!!! I am getting this pedal, thanks for the vid. Dreams do come true.
I’ve got a lot of these 9 pedals. They’re all fantastic.
I came here expecting the key 9 to be a bit dull, but it’s actually amazing
Nice product and demo ;)
Still one of the most innovative pedal manufacturers out there. Love you guys.
Amazing pedal. EHX really come out with some amazing off-the-wall interesting effects.
I shouldn't have watched this....now I need to pair it with my mel9.
Hahaah same here! xD
just bought the mel 9. and yeah, same.
Wow. This could be the droid Iam looking for.
For reals!
I'm happy with my B9 and now all this other cool stuff to play with is coming out, it just brings a smile to my face to be able to extract these sounds out of a stomp box. thanks. EH. Great demos too.
Wonderful playing, Bill!
steely dan and doors organ/key parts would sound great but also i love that sound like the one in no quarter
Great "Caravan" epic keyboard sound with number 6!!...
EHX just needs to make one big ass unit with organs, synths, electric pianos, etc! Take my money.
Yes. Along with user presets, bank up/down..
That looks like fun. Well done, EHX.
Best review of this pedal straight to the point. Demoed as should be with talent.
Another great demo video, Bill!
They're telling us to avoid panic buying, but I just ordered this and the Bass9. With a looper and my drums I'm about to go one man band (and crowd) and really self isolate. Terrible joke, sorry. But seriously can't wait until these pedals arrive.
What looper?
Taking the guitar to different levels. Awesome
I was waiting for it the whole demo, and as soon as that thunder struck, I knew what was coming next!
This is a good revenge vs keyboards that tries to simulate guitars
Best keyboard player I've ever heard!
I just ordered this pedal. Excited for it to come!
Fantastic review and what a great job choosing songs that showcase the different effects.
Pedal is Ok, the player is fucking astonishing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just what Ibwad going to write! I dont think that pedal would be as kind to my choppy playing.
That pedal is a legend
@@mattthebassboy sounds good with HIM playing it
It gets you spots few others can, well worth the money. Bill Ruppert is the guitarist we all want to be.
I already have the B9 and the C9 (I did have two B9's - one for each board until the C9 came out) and they are awesome but the ultimate has to be one pedal featuring all three pedals sounds with MIDI selection - That would be the most perfect pedal ever made !!!
Yes. Wow thats amazing! That organ!
I came here to praise the guitarist doing the demo. Great player... I see others have noticed this too. Give the man a raise
Damn it EHX, you guys aren't going to stop until you have all my money do ya?
My money too, damn it.
LOL. I know right
LeEcHeR 1 yes they are fun i done got two myself.
Joke's on you guys. Do what I did, I have no money to start with 😂
0mg y0u know this is sick i wont all they got on this
Damn. I need a birthday every week to keep up with all the stuff I want. Toys, toys, toys.
He who dies with the most toys wins
Wish I had found this channel sooner. I started guitar in the early '80s so I thought the only effects pedals were distortion, phaser, flanger, and wah. Had no idea ones like these existed, lol.
Loved the Beck!
Killer demos + killer guitar playing!
+James Cassidy Thanks I love your stuff as well!
Bill
can someone talk about the guitar playing? that dude is fucking awesomeeeeee
DAMN ! When do you guys drop the new HORN SECTION pedal ?
+Jeffrey Johnson ????
Since you can do multi-tone pitch extraction and then for each note, synthesize the 'tonal carrier' waveform and envelope of the different keyboards, I figured you could generate sax and trumpet too. So, when will you be releasing the HORN SECTION ? Seriously.
yes please for the love of god
would buy in an instant
Ohh man that would be awesome!!!
that is one ,great demo, thank you sir!
Wonderful demo Bill, as always! I expected something like this since your "Rhodes emulation attempt" in one of the Effectology video, well it is finally here! I would love to see new effectology tricks by the way ;)
I wore such a big smile when they started playing No Quarter by Led Zepplin 😄
That steel drum setting is sweet. Like half organ half steel drum.
This blew my mind!! Can't believe what I just heard!
Superb choice of demo tunes!
amazing ... if i could i d buy all !!!
EHX is simply the best for inspiring creativity with his pedals. I have an EHX bag with only EHX pedals and I would love to have this too... if I have the money to buy it, ehehe :) Pretty good work with KEY9!
Yeah, it really opens up yor eyes. (Try to get some sleep)
Wow! Truly great demo video!
They have some true electronics wizards at EHX. Incredible.
Lol the shot of the beach and the steel drums kick in. So good.
How many drunk keyboardists have we fired to date?
gearmeister 😂👍
wow, savage
I'm still coming back to these organ pedal demos because I love the crap out of these things but after years of deciding, I'm pretty firm on the Key9 because of that elusive Fender Rhodes piano sound, plus the "B3 on acid" Deep Purple Highway Star sound!.. my band did fire the keyboard player!! 🤣🤣🤣
Holy Frets!!
I’m sold. Must get this pedal asap
Wow. This sounds amazing!
Wish this guy could do all the pedal and guitar videos on you tube
FINALLY A RHODES SETTING! WOOH
Exactly the pedal I was looking for. It seems to track the chords extremely well too!!!!
GREAT demo... really enjoyed his playing (Y)
The B-9 is INSANE-I will be getting The C-9 & Key9
Bill Ruppert is a GENIUS programmer & MIGHTY FINE player!!!
Damn, that's cool.
Always a massive thumbs up for the musical stylings of Mr Ruppert.
Thanks!
Aside from the amazing effects, what a brilliant guitar performance!
Private S.N.A.F.U. !!! Had to get that out of my system so I can focus on Bill's mastery.
Good demo, man you can play.
I've had this pedal for several years and I still can't make it sound this good.
Truly an amazing pedal!
1:00 Get out the micrometer. I'm pretty sure that brick I just shit was a perfect rectangular prism.
Your playing shows the true capabilities of these products and EHX is lucky to have you.
nice guitar player man he got some jumbo frets !
at first I thought who cares about a piano effect, and after seeing the whole video this is by far the best demo review and one of the most interesting pedals! so much options
...and then EHX will release yet another pedal that has all the sounds of the B9, C9 and KEY9 - all in one package.
+colossalcow No plans of that now.
+EHX one can only dream right?
Man, I would jump on a pedal with all the 9 series sounds if it had midi presets
I wanna see Rings of Saturn use this in their next album with some distortion and a harmonized.
By the way the quality of the demo is excellent. Great playing and clearly explained demo. This looks ideal for fingerpicking .... Just the right length to keep people interested.
Thank you Bill for such excellent demos! Your choice of songs is a very good thing. For the eHx demos you pick songs from Ray Charles, Steely Dan, Beck, the Doors and Kraftwerk and you play the songs like a master! I enjoy listening to your playing while I paint. You have a solid talent, sir!
I wanna hear more EIGHTY EIGHT samples.
Would be cool to play some Elton, Billy Joel, Queen, Journey piano / keyboard driven tunes live using guitar
This would truly expand the Set List
