Eventide Ultra-Harmonizer, 8-Channel Effects Processor Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Eventide H8000FW is the most powerful audio effects processor available. Period. Nothing comes close, and at this price point, that is the way it has to be. I've had my H8000 for several years and had it upgraded to be a H8000FW which adds firewire so that I can use the H8000 in an effects send from my computer. This unit is completely programmable. You can rearrange all the modules in every algorithm (patch). The quality of the effects is outstanding as well. The stellar pitch shifting is what gives the H8000 the name "Harmonizer", but the other effects are world class as well.
The down side? Well, the price is hard to get past, but you do get what you pay for. The learning curve is steep, however there are over 1000 patches already loaded into the H8000, so you may never need or want to take the time to learn everything about the H8000.
If you don't need eight channels, you can save some money by purchasing an Eventide H7600 two channel Harmonizer, or if you know you will never want to edit the algorithms, take a look at the Eventide Eclipse which is the least expensive Harmonizer.
