Eventide H9 Harmonizer Gen 2 Expands the Pedal With 74 Algorithms and 1,000+ Presets

Eventide Audio H9 Gen 2

Eventide Audio has released the next-generation H9 Harmonizer, which combines the company’s “algorithm library, streamed workflow, and modern connectivity” into a single unit.

“Building on the original H9 concept, H9 Harmonizer Gen 2 expands the complete H9 Max library to the full 74-algorithm lineup from the H90,” Eventide writes. “From delay, reverb, and pitch-shifting to granular processing, vocal effects, and synth manipulation, it delivers the broadest collection of Eventide effects ever assembled in a single-algorithm pedal.”

The H9 Harmonizer Gen 9 features eleven effects categories: Granular, Harmonizer+Vocals, Delay, Reverb, Harmonizer, Modulation, Multi-FX, Distortion, Synth, Looper, and Utilities. It comes with over 1,000 presets and remains compatible with legacy H9 presets.

The redesigned interface has a 2.5-inch display with button pads and Quick knobs. For connectivity, it includes USB-C, MIDI, and an expression pedal input.

The Eventide Audio H9 Harmonizer Gen 2 is open to pre-orders for $599. It will ship on June 24th.
