Eventide H9 "Dark Matter" patch

[guitarzan]

I am absolutely loving how easy it is to expand the usability of this pedal just by adding an expression pedal. No programming necessary- just plug in and use the stock patches. Of course you could modify them to your heart's content, but I'm giddy about this thing.

isn't it against the rules to wear long pants and shoes in a gear demo?

Yeah, but I'm wearing three hats and lipstick to make up for it. :)

Thanks Corey, now I'm just dreaming of all the pad-like delays I could do with the electric side of the Crowdy underneath the acoustic....

The pads and washes are pretty crazy on the H9. I love extra sauce on guitar tones, but have never gotten into the whole "super pad" sound with tons of harmonization and long reverbs. It has always been a little too messy to my ears. But the H9 makes it tough not to slather on extra sauce. It just sounds SOOOO gooey and cool. I can guarantee this pedal is gonna make me lose some gigs. hahaha

I think I need a space. Don't really need all the other stuff... but the space stuff really seems pretty awesome.

I've heard guys talking about the Space for a long while and I was never interested. Then I got this H9, and getting a taste of the cool reverbs has changed my views.

Right now, for me, it's a gluttonous use of everything the H9 has to offer. I actually had a keyboard player ask me what he should play since I was covering all the guitar and keyboard parts. :) But once the dust settles and I start to use this pedal's power as a condiment and not as the main course, then I think having more than just the reverbs will be an asset.
