With the Eventide H9 Harmonizer Gen 2, one of the best-known multi-effects pedals of recent years enters the next phase. Building on the original H9, the second generation not only incorporates the complete H9 Max library, but also expands the platform for the first time to include all the algorithms from the popular H90. A total of 74 algorithms and over 1,000 presets are available, ranging from reverb, delay and modulation to granular, synth, looper and harmoniser effects, guaranteeing plenty of fun and endless combinations of effects. Thanks to modern ARM processor architecture, the H9 Gen 2 benefits from greater processing power, improved preset switching with seamless spillover, and high-quality polyphonic pitch shifting based on SIFT technology. At the same time, the user interface has been fundamentally redesigned: a larger 2.5-inch display, Quick-Knobs, dedicated keypads and full parameter control directly on the unit make the H9 Gen 2 significantly more user-friendly than its predecessor. The design is complemented by Bluetooth, USB-C, MIDI, flexible routing options and full compatibility with existing H9 presets. The H9 Harmonizer Gen 2 thus presents itself as a modern effects centre for the stage, the studio or for experimentation.
