All of them are great and the Eclipse and H8000FW do amazing things, but the H910 algorithm on the PitchFactor gets closer to the real H910 than any of them. All of the Eventide equipment I own are two old original H910s, a PitchFactor, an Eclipse, and an H8000FW. My understanding, however, is that the H9 has the same H910 and H949 algorithms as the PitchFactor. I don't actually own an H9 and have never used one, so I really can't say how the H9 compares directly. Getting the speakers moving really adds a lot to the tone.
#EVENTIDE H910 VS H949 TV#
I'm talking low TV volume, so I am sure it would sound better if I could get a chance to record it louder and actually get the speakers moving. She freaks out with any loud noises and she slept through the whole thing, so it was quiet. Our puppy was asleep on the couch 4 feet away. No EQ or mixing work was done, just panned the dry left and H910 right. If you listen to the clip with headphones the dry signal is panned left and the H910 is panned right.

I have an SM57 on one speaker of each cab and going into my PreSonus interface. Each cab is loaded with Scumback BM75 65 watt speakers. The reverb is mixed into both sides evenly. It is being re-amped and sent to the cabs by the Matrix GT1000FX power amp. The dry signal is going to my left 2X12 cab and the H910 is going to my right 2X12 cab. The only effects in that clip are a little reverb mixed in low and the Eventide H910. All of that goes to the SM82 stereo mixer and is mixed in parallel. The amp is everything dimed except the channel one volume is at about 7.5 or so.įrom the amp the signal is going into my Suhr reactive load and an SM26 running as a splitter to send the dry signal and signals that is going to effects.

It was the unpainted guitar you see in the video clip. The guitar has a EVH Frankenstein pickup in it that I have tinkered with. I'm running my unfinished guitar straight into the top left input with no boosts, no EQ, nothing between amp and guitar. Sozo Nexgen caps, 5000pF bright cap, EH6CA7s, and on a variac set at 95 volts and amp biased at that voltage. It is basically set up like a 69 plexi for doing the VH thing. The amp is a Marshall 1959SLP reissue that I gutted and reworked with a PTP/turret board. It does sound better in the room, especially with some decent volume! Yeah it sounded so mid 80's VH with the H910 mixed in that I just HAD to play 5150.
