Looking forward to the 10 hour in depth demo!
Thanks for putting this together! I just bought an H9 max and so glad I did!
A lot of comments calling this thing a “toy”, or a waste of money. It’s truly an incredible & inspirational creative tool for guitar. And the quality of the algorithms are second to NONE. But those who don’t “get it”, definitely shouldn’t get it.
Got one and I agree!
Henning, this is the best demo of the H9 so far! I love my H9, never ending Sound archive
I could not imagine, dream-up, or fabricate a better person than you, to have made this video. Your smile, the expression on your face when you hit a “stout patch”, was priceless, your guitarsmanship and attitude superb. And,at the end, helping dogs, Earth’s finest creatures.🤗🐾❤️ My sincere thanks!
Why am I watching this? And why didn't I learn playing guitar? This looks so much fun! Great video btw.
You can still learn :) get a Squier!
This reminds me of a recent tweet from Bob Rock the legendary engineer and producer. Bob engineered Bon Jovi ‘s Slippery When Wet and Aerosmith’s Permanent Vacation as well as producing albums for Loverboy, Krokus, Chilliwack, The Cult, Motley Crue, Metallica, Cher, Michael Buble, David Lee Roth, Bryan Adams, Joan Jett, Bush, Nelly Furtado, Richie Sambora, Survivor, The Offspring, Black Veil Brides etc, etc, etc. It’s fair to say that Bob knows a thing or two about recording, engineering and producing great guitar sounds. A frustrated and exasperated Bob Rock tweeted that he had just spent an entire day in the studio trying to get the semblance of a half decent recorded guitar sound out of a well know bands guitar players algorithmic effects unit. Essentially Bob’s plea and open message to all guitar players aspiring to become recording artists was ; invest in a decent amp, minimal pedals , work at getting your sound, this will give engineers and producers lots of scope to engineer, record and produce your sound. Undoubtedly good advice and worth bearing in mind depending on your aspirations and circumstances as a player.
Hope you are keeping well and being safe! Be good! Hugs from Canada 🇨🇦
As an H9 owner, thank you Henning!!!
Brilliant machinery. I use this in combination with a Strymon Iridium and a couple of overdrives and it is absolutely effing AMAZING. I might even need two...
Your reviews are great. Always doing a product demo that makes sense to me. I've had my H9 for a few days and it's unbelievable. I ordered it directly from Eventide, since US retailers were on waiting lists. This pedal has been around for some time but I think the users needed time to catch up with what Eventide was giving them. Also, creating a core pedal was a great idea. People can get into it at their own pace and budget. Although, buying the harmonizer level was perfect for me. loaded with 9 algorithms and 100 presets was great. Then, on top of that they give you a free algorithm as a gift. BRAVO to you and your demos.
Actually I’ve ordered the H90 , not landed yet here in England but thanks for your fab tutorial , it’ll all make sense when I get it !! Happy New Year
Nice! What a thorough walk through of a pretty amazing box! Thanks, Henning!
Thanks for doing this....You are the only guy who is brave to go through all of the sounds of this amazing unit.
I bought one last year H9 max
Best investment ever..
I probably go crazy having two.
Only an hour and twenty minutes?? Is the full demo coming at some point? 🤣
:D:D:D
☕
Lol
Luckily early on he mentioned the power supply is center positive. Deal breaker.
I've got an H9 Max on backorder. Pricey, but seems like a great addition for someone that hasn't yet found "their tone" and loves to experiment with different sounds. I'm a hobby player so this should keep me busy for the foreseeable future.
Bought the H9Max like 8 years ago... Eventide continues to put out amazing new algorithms all the time, so you just up date and get them. It’s just amazing... although I end up funking around with all the awesome sounds and tones and NOT practicing.... 😂 LOVE IT! I may get the cheaper version and just slave my Max to it. Eventide and EHX are my two favorite effects manufactures. Lover them both.
I don't think you can find more info on this item anywhere in the world. Thats why I keep watching Henning's videos. Very detailed, very polished, and very entertaining videos.
had a H9 now for about 4 years. it's last in the chain and is exactly that "wild card" pedal you speak of as it will do anything as well as a looper.
It was a great call doing this video. I have an H9. People do not get how good this pedal is. The problem is that it's so deep that no one knows how to demo it.
I have one one of these, have not used it since Eventide started porting their stuff to IOS, maybe this video will motivate me to get my H9 back in action .. it IS cool looking when it’s turned on 😬 Thanks for this video 👍
I'm addicted to this effect unit.... I bought five (5!!!) of them. Paying for the Max one time and all five are freakin' loaded with MAX thru the website. All new algorithms are available for free for all five units whenever a new one is released, too... I use three H9s on one rig, and two on my second rig
Stupid crazy stuff is always available
Eventide should give you free lifetime access to anything they release from now on.
And that is why an App is king with this thing. I tried and failed to love my DSP4000b+. This is going to change my life as a composer.
Behold the power of the moon to pull the tides even! H9000 is my dream rack unit but I’d be happy with one of these on my desk or board 🤗
I need one of those hydro therapy treadmills.
Strange how I recently got an HX Stomp and have loads of pedals that I've barely broken the ice with...and still...still... feel I must have this in my studio! Henning!!! 🙃😜😁😎🎸🤘🐦
Excellent! I've had my H9 for two years, and you showed me things I've never seen before!
Thank you very much! Wonderful. I must subscribe. :)
Thank you Henning, excellent video. I've had the H9 for a while now but I was never able to figure out the UI so I mostly ignored it in favour of simpler pedals. Your video has totally reignited my interest in this formidable device. Thank you again.
Man!!!
I looked for several videos about some effects and I didn't find them. With this video I was able to get a sense of the effects. Thank you very much!!!
I just got my “Max” (literally just came in the mail and as yet to be opened) and I’m gonna turn right around and buy the “core” too before they sell out...
I’ve always dug the Eventide stuff and now I’m fully vested!
Thanks for the video!!! ✌🏼
Great video man, thanks for all your invested time on this, you are awesome. Greetings from Colombia
I went and bought the h9 max because of this demo. thanks from Australia
I grabbed one of these awhile back and it has so much stuff and more keeps getting added, I also like that you can buy another one without rebuying the algorithms. But it looks like right now the cool black one is only a max which sucks when you already own a max.
After 15 minutes I was all ready lost. I am to simple for this 😥
you might prefer a ukulele
@@JohnnyXoz Even a ukelele... I quit with all the difficult instruments with strings after seeing this video. Now I am into Japanese food ❤️🙏
around the 15th minute the software lags,, for H9 it is unfortunately quite common phenomenon :-( ,,, also sometimes the buttons or knobs stop responding and the device needs to be restarted :-)
BTW thank you Henning for your all amazing videos.
Man! I've been tempted by one of these for a while...but now, serious GAS!
And nice to see the VertDluxe board being put to use!
I'm in the same boat, Prefer the H9 Dark cause of the look. a H9 Dark Core is what I'm waiting for.
The best H9 demo video. I am going to Sweetwater now to buy one now. Thanks 👌
I Only Have One H9 Max 😪 Awesome Explanation Tanx. 💘 Your Video's.
00:11:18 delay
00:28:52 mod

00:48:00 harpeggiator?!
00:50:22 reverb
01:00:33 special
01:16:03 tuner
01:16:25 2 H9
01:20:45 my 2 cents
Well Well Well!!!! I never understood why I always saw 2 of the same pedals until this video, now it all makes sense. I had no clue there were 3 levels of the Eytsch-9s. They do sound amazing, and I am floored with what they can do. Keep up the good work. PS I just finished the video , I started when it got posted. Animals at the end.
Wow, that was epic! Great effort there going through so much stuff! I didn't know so much was possible in one unit.
First thing: thabks for the effort ! Second: Awesome video,love it ! ...now I'm going to buy one H9, no I need 2, right ? ;-)
I am happily exploring my Eventide H90. Its like 2 of dose.
Because of this video, I order H9 Max and H9 core!
So now I have 2 of them running pre/post on both inserted in diff places of the signal chain... Digging it
With H90 released, H9 is discounted, and still great
I would spend more energy screwing with the settings instead of making music. Bu it sure sounds amazing. Great demo.
Totally awesome, I am getting at least one of these! 🥳
Oh wow, on the day before you uploaded this video I reserved an H9 MAX Dark-a lovely matter of timing and coincidence. 😄
You have the best reviews, Dr. Evil.
I like the GUI. I just got a hd500. I can’t afford this as Just an fx machine. But I like how it sounds.
They seem like they’d be an awesome studio tool
Sure it's fantastic but it's meant for Studio Work mainly,you can only use ONE effect at a time and in a live environment that's a terrible limitation. In studio or in a DAW it's perfect.
Gautama Sakyamuni I disagree I’ve been using one for two years live but you do need a decent pedalboard set up and ideally a switcher that’s can change pedal order to get maximum use out of it.
@@peterjessop1878 I don't need all this complication,I use a TC Triple Delay an Earthquaker Devices Transmisser and a Neunaber Immerse can't desire more.
Gautama Sakyamuni yep it’s horses for courses. Neunaber Immerse is a brilliant pedal; I love mine. TC triple delay is just too damn big for my pedal board but great all the same.
@@peterjessop1878 Yeah it's big but I adapted my pedalboard accordingly,could not use another delay since I have it.😉
The 60s and 70s are touted as the golden age of music. I wonder how they made music in the 60's and 70's without all these gimmicks.
Zappa had tons of gimmicks.... tons
@@EytschPi42 So did Gilmour and Waters
They actually called the first button hot knob 😂
The geek I am is amazed! What a swiss kind of a tool!! Needs two because one before preamp for this amazing pitch effects before my Fuzz and one in FX-loop... Should I thank you?
I LOVE my H9 and have made 70 amazing fx of my own in a few weeks. I am considering a second one. I must say the POLY Effects Digit is also amazing audio quality and you patch to make your own effects. This is the future. My 2 gripes with H9 the pain chips easily and if theu would just let us go one level deeper so we can send an LFO to another LFO like you can do in the POLY Effects Digit it would be even more amazing
Cray The Digit looks like a cool pedal maybe your ready for the Empress Zoia, though the learning curve is pretty steep.
I love your opening theme music! :)
I always enjoy these long form deep dive videos.
Up next: The Chase-Bliss Blooper.
I'm a 74 yrs old guitar player. I have one of these, but I can't understand it fully. Too hard for me.
I am a 40 year old guitar player - i do understand it fully and i pass everything that works in coop with phones, tablets, laptops or any kind of MacOS, Windows, Android or other Linux-driven devices.
Wrong update, a virus, 3rd-party software which gets in conflict with the operating system or anything like that - and your gig is f... up.
None!! of my pedals, amp's and what so ever is allowed to have dependencies with computers. NONE!
Therefore i use an Audio-Interface which already have its problems on Linux and i just have to wait for a couple of month and it will be "not longer supported" on Windows too. Don't buy sleepless night's.
It may work just great at the moment. But i will stop doing it's job sooner or later.
John James McCartney I feel your pain. I am an old school pedal person and several times I have tried to understand these complex pedals like the H9, Line 6 Helix, etc and all that menu diving confuses and frustrates me. The closest I have come to using complex pedals are the smaller Strymon (Flint, Deco, Sunset, Brigadier etc) and the Source Audio One series. The latter are MiDI controllable if you want that option.
What do you use at this moment?
The TC Plethora looks like a good easy to use multi effect option.
I really really really want to watch this whole thing...but I really must watch the beginner how to guide for Cubase...it's about time I turn the computer on with the Focusrite Safire hooked up so I'm done with the studio (it's never completely ever "done") so I can start recording music!
1:08:09 onwards with that effect awesome bro!
Servus! Well, that's some device. I'm no musician but it was kinda fun to watch and listen. I really just came over to your channel to watch your vid on the Atem Mini (none to be had anywhere sadly).
Old vid.....but amazing 👌✌️🎸😎
The only downside to the H9 that I can think of is that it requires a PhD in advanced geekery to fully explore the potential of this unit. I have two of these and I ended up buying an expression pedal to go with it. I find that using the app, together with MIDI is essential to fully appreciate the H9. The use of a notebook can be quite handy when exploring the myriad of choices.
The real beauty of the H9 is that, used in conjunction with a MIDI based switcher and an iPad or iPhone (on a stand,) sounds can be tweaked on the fly, unlike the majority of stomp boxes, where one has to bend down to change parameters.
I learned a few things from this presentation, and although expensive, a lot cheaper than going down the rabbit hole of multiple pedals.
If I was to get one I think I would get it empty & spend the rest of my life adding the 1 billion sounds
I can tell many aren't understanding what this product represents. Think of it a a single module version of the H9000 which is found in almost every studio worldwide. The cost is actually reasonable for studio quality algorithms, remember Eventide has been used on some portion of almost every album you've likely purchased. Yes, the presets are wayyyy over the top, don't let that marketing fool you that it's too complex...they are just presets of the particular algorithm, nothing else. There really aren't a ton of algos, so don't let the preset thing make it out more than it is.
To use the H9's quickly on your pedalboard, first decide what effect you care to use, say reverb. Select the algorithm type that likely suits, say a "room" type for example. When the first preset pops up, immediately turn the Mix down to at least 20% or less and give it a whirl, then adjust any other parameters to taste, then move on. Use this methodology across the board and it's fast giving you studio grade effects. I use one exclusively for delays and the other exclusively for reverbs. I personally stay away from the fuzzes and over-the-top-modulation FX for standard setlists. Sometimes I'll use the one H9 I have normally set on delays to function as a mild chorus or flanger as needed via a small 4-switch midi footswitch on the same pedalboard.
Sorry for the long post but most vids I've seen over the years on this unit only have folks running through the presets which (as with most multi-FX units for at least 3 decades) are generally worthless and impractical unless your Frank Zappa or similar. Bottom line, setup your wanted effect like you would any other previous model you've used in the past. Compare the audio quality of both and you'll hear why the core algorithms are in a league above the budget product lines. If you don't care about the quality of the effects you use in your signal chain, then you'd certainly be overpaying for this unit, no doubt. Otherwise you're highly likely to be very impressed. Regards.
It's a bargain, for world-class effects
*I am judging the entirety of the German population on the basis of his swirly tiger sweater....*
Persona Nongrata yeah but the hoody that comes in at 7:30 just ties it all together
Persona Nongrata ... Your name says it all
Please don’t judge us by this goofball - he annoys most of us as well.
@@luigidopobici8459 It's ok - idiots have no nationality .. you can find them anywhere
Great demo. Sounds pro. Eventide is my fav
Awesome item man. I just got one and it’s amazing!
I ordered one yesterday. A MAX Dark. I have to wait a month for it to arrive since they are backordered.
Hi Henning!
This (as with all of your videos) was a great review and has helped me make up my mind as to whether I’d want to get the H9 or not.
I’m impressed that you didn’t say “shit-ton of effects” more often though!
In your opinion do you think there’s anything that’s come out since you made this video with a similar price range or less that’s better quality than the H9?
the UA effects are great, but only 4 algorithms per pedal.
the H9 is still the king of the many sounds in super high quality
Now that you're working with Eventide try to get their newest delay pedal "Rose" for a full review. It's kind of a hybrid design analog/digital. Stay safe and be good, cheers.
come in 2 days
Hello, I just purchased a H9 pedal. Great video about the control program and what the pedal can do. When hooking this up to a computer, what was needed to make this work? I.E. @ midi interface and cables? Help!
I have it full maxed ;)
I heard some sounds that may be useful, and a lot of them that would give me a headache. But I'm not a huge effects guy I guess.
Wowzers that sounds good.🤟🏻
Carl Sagan wanted to be involved with the H9 development, but Eventide thought 'billions and billions' would be too many sound options on a single pedal... lol
Amazing eventide h9
if you are like a guitarist writing some cinematic stuff this is great! But i believe that this is too much for a typical rock/metal player
Haven't gone to my BT settings on my H9Core or H9Max in over a year. CANNOT connect with BT now. Very frustrationg. I even updated with 'updater' and still no connection via bt which makes them useless....almost.
Excellent!📼👏🏻
It's a great pedal.
One man shows
Looking at the face plates they all look the same. How do you distinguish between the Max, Core and Standard units? What is the main difference between the three? How do they sound when using with keyboard/synths? Thanks in advance.
I love my H9
Imagining Henning with a beard. Probably would look like my buddy Ebehart. Like an old eccentric math teacher.......who plays guitar. 🤣🤣🤣🤣✌️😎
Check out Smashing Pumpkins, Machina album. Back then they had 2 Orville Eventides but the result is amazing on the album The Machines of God.
I have really mixed feelings about this pedal - I've owned one for about five years now, an H9 max - the most expensive pedal (of around 30 or so) on my board and - if there was one pedal and only one that I could take to a deserted island, it would be this one. In the real world, however, I barely use the thing. There are 500 presets that you have to access through an ipad or your computer, you can only have 100 on the pedal itself, and the readout has no usable info on what sound you've called up. You have to, realistically, print out what presets you've got called up so you can tell what the hell is even going on. It's just too damn hard to use in any realistic/real time way. OTOH, the sounds that I do end up using are some of the best out there. So I've kept it, despite constantly thinking about selling it - just in case that one sound I stumble on, after hours of dicking around with the thing - ends up being the one I use.
Paul, I agree totally! But don't give up.
It can take hours of tweaking, but all of a sudden when you least expect it, you find gold in your tinkering, and you can hear angels singing. My tendency is to over-tweak, taking too much time. Sometimes I actually practice my guitar.
You do have to make your preset list, obviously, and get familiar with what you've saved. But you can also save the preset and just write it down on a piece of paper.
"Oh wow, I like this one."
Then don't lose the paper. I do both. Preset lists, and paper. It's a quick easy look to remember what you liked so well.
Definitely time consuming, no doubt. But there's gold in them thar hills.
@paul This is 100 thousand % the way I feel. I'm in similar situation. Had my H9 max for about 5 or 6 years and I'm currently using 2 reverb settings. TWO?!?! Out of everything on there, I've come down to only using two (I have 4 or 5 dialed in). About 2 months ago I decided to sit down and really learn the thing a bit more and work really hard to dial in some settings and make it usable in live setting, and I came up with two (with hot switches dialed in too). I will say that those reverbs I've dialed in are awesome so I'm not getting rid of it anytime soon. But if I had to go back in time and choose between the H9 or something different, I would have totally gone with a reverb only pedal like the Strymon BigSky.
- "Black hole is amazing - its starting without me...!"
I have an H9 Max - so I feel I'm wasting it unless I buy a second H9 to link with it...
So should I get a Line6 Go Pod or keep my Digitech FX board and add another H9...?
Two linked H9 could be awesome plugged into 2 FX sends.
Steve Vai's favourite!
1 Billion sounds in one box. That should keep people that can't play happy for a lifetime going through them all.
So you don’t need a computer at all? Everything can be accessed through Bluetooth? Via smart phone, ipad....?
Sorry if my questions are stupid. Thank you for a brilliant video. Cheers
yes, an iphone is enough
you lost me after the delays, but i shall leave this playing till the end. nice guitar ...
how's the surfy spring reverb on these? I've been looking for a nice stereo spring reverb pedal and have always wanted one of these, too. Wondering if I can get both with this one purchase?
I have the H9, great for experimenting, not really responsive with the guitar, works with synth better.
Amazing
Why didn't they make the H9 with more knobs? They should have made one the same size as the other boxes.
These things are like sirens. They look and sound beautiful, but will kill you in the end... I can see how great they are if you are recording and need a billion different sounds, or if you have an awesome midi controlled pedalboard and the time to fiddle around with the presents (or a tech to do it for you). I somehow still prefer having one good pedal of each effect... 🤔
Yeah. And you know what? Nobody you play for would ever notice the difference. Wasted time and money for 99,9% of the people.
Paolo Moretti some of us are playing for ourselves, not worrying about what people think. If separate pedals inspire you- you’ll play better. Anyone that has a favorite pedal knows that.
I think if I have those I will spend days goofing around without actually making any music. Endless possibilities for someone who cannot choose could be a problem. That said: I still want one 😉 why you do this to us Henning
Inspiration to make new song can simply hit you while you are hearing a setting and that is when you stop scrolling then make music immediately.
GLENN AINT WRONG. My music never sounded better. ...And I use a GSP1101. #digitech
When I see reviews of reverb or delays pedals around 3-400$ I think ''if only the guy knew about Eventide, TC electronics or Lexicon''...for the same price they have a Multi effect without accumulated noises-hum-buzzes etc, between pedals. I miss the old day when all these units where rack mounted...now they are all on the floor in the dirt...maybe that's the goal, they won't last as long as the old units because of that and they will sell more? Thank you for reviewing Multi effects. You should go back in time and review and compare all the old units you can find for peanuts on Reverb and Ebay, the kids would have they jaws dropped to the floor if you compare a Lexicon MX200 (on Ebay around 150$ used right now) vs a ''high end boutique'' pedal selling for 400$ that sound like shit.
