03In depth

Eight delay bands and sound character

The plugin uses eight independent delay lines. Each band has its own controls for level, panning, filter type, frequency and Q, so each delay can be shaped separately. Eventide says the processing models the analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converter sections of the original H3000, and that the filter recreations reproduce the resonance and self-oscillation behavior of the hardware.

The feature list points to swept combs, auto-panning delays and soundscapes as typical results. A visual display shows all delays and their band shapes, which helps when working across many bands at once.

Workflow, controls and presets

A function generator with 19 waveforms can drive modulation, and assignable macro soft keys let you map several parameters to one control. Expert and Function tabs show all controls and assignments in one place. The interface is resizable, and MIDI control is included.

The plugin ships with 100+ presets, including recreations of original H3000 presets and new custom artist presets, which gives you a starting point before you build your own settings.
