Sold! And you beat the US release so kinda cool to confirm this is what they have been hinting about
Well I’ll be damn after waiting 30 plus years here is the pedal most of us have been waiting for!!!Leon the dream is over,I’ll check my mailbox daily til it shows up🤘Rock on I still can’t believe it holy shit
NOBODY PANIC
@@LeonTodd I’m having a panic attack!ha 🤘Rock on dude 🤘
I've been wanting something like this in PEDAL format since being a HUGE Steve Stevens fan in the 80's ... getting one now. I also have the Keeley 30ms which does incredible Double Tracking and Abbey Mode Reverb ... but the Eventide is like the Death Star version! Whoa ...
I bought one recently for $170 I'm gonna run in my stereo fx loop EQ>Boss CE-5>Tricerachorus >Micropitch delay >Flashback2>HOF 2 Reverb back to Stereo return. 🤘🎸🤘. Awesome video as usual I grew up in 70s and 80s remembered drooling over those racks back in the day😂.
Need, NO!, Want, HELL YES! Sounds fantastic Leon, I had the chance to dink around with a H3000 many times way back in the day but never owned one. My playing rig today has simplified but I still get nostalgic for all the grease, great demo. Loved the Zakk/Yamaha SPX 90 Symphonic nod at 8:35! That piece of gear does still live in my dinosaur rack!
Mine too!
I just ordered one yesterday. I’d seen Pete Thorns vid, and while it was great, your vid was quite a bit more “in depth” regarding different possibilities. THANK YOU!!! Great video- and playing as well!!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Thank you for a fab demo video - love those tones and the playing. This is definitely on my shopping list!
Yes! I saw the thumbnail and smashed the click button fast. You had me at micro pitch.
Very cool sounds you got out of there and love the classic Zakk Wylie riffs you threw in. Will definitely have to research this pedal some more.
Thanks for posting!
Hey Leon, Hope you are well brother... I don't know why this pedal doesn't get the street cred it deserves. I have one and love it... I watched your revisit of the Strymon Dig... The Dig sounds a lot more tinty when using similar settings. Much fuller, meaty, with great tones.
Interesting that they added the envelope modulation. Otherwise, I’m still quite happy with the used PitchFactor I got for much less than a new MicroPitch that does that algorithm and much more.
A nice thing about the single algorithm releases is that the new videos give a person ideas of how to get more out of stuff they already had. I have not taken this algorithm seriously enough as a dual delay. Deep algorithm I have in a very deep pedal.
yeah i've gone backed and tweaked my H9 detune presets based off this thing
I use these pitch effects in my Axe-Fx. I've been waiting for this effect in pedal format for years. Chorus without oscillation.
It's even effective in Mono. It makes your guitar almost sound double tracked.
Can't wait to add one of these to the board of my non-modeling rig.
Yeah it's been a long time coming IMO. Time to make a "rack pedalboard" style setup.
Late to the party but my question was if you’re not running a stereo rig will this still be effective.
@@MrShane5150 Yes, you can still hear it in mono and it still sounds cool, but as you might expect, it's not nearly as cool as it is in stereo. But yep you can still get a kind of washy biggness out of it even in mono.
I don't have all those presets on my H9 Max stuff, but that bottomless drop is there, sick LOL. I finally got a second H9 so Max x 2, plus a Timefactor. All looped through an Eleven Rack controlled by a FCB1010 with EurekaProm 3.2. Really starting to actually enjoy mucking around on an electric guitar again for the first time in decades. iPad at ready for all 3 Eventide Pedals, just need to hook the Eleven rack up to cheapie laptop for control next.
OMG that sounds wonderful. What a sweet pedal. I have to have one. Evintide rocks! Thanks for doing this one my friend. Very very cool pedal. Love it. 💖💖💖🤟🤟🤟
Oh boy... might have to order one of these... sounds like all of the old vintage rack gear sounds in a modern (and hopefully nice and reliable) pedal. Now I'm really looking forward to hearing Pete Thorn's demo of this pedal later today.
I'm building a "rack board" with this, Strymon Dig and the Poly Digit. Should be good fun
@@LeonTodd Can this do both the micropitch and the long stereo delays simultaneously? (ie, could I conceivably replace my Dig with just this for 90s EVH in one box?)
@@LeonTodd That pedal and the Boss DD-500 would get you the classic EVH 5150 tone (he was using SDE-3000s back then) ! Just sayin'...
Thanks for the great demo I just got one and definitely plan to integrated into my current pedalboard I still really dig those old Van Halen Balance tones
perfect for that stuff IMO
@@LeonTodd I've got the Waza DC2w as well. Going to run it with the Micropitch for awesome 80s schmo goodness.
YES!!!!!! @@modscientist9793
Thank you for the great content..I'm a child of the 80s and you've helped me immensely..I've been those juicy Huff, Landau,.Lukather tones..i think I'm getting closer with those 2 units alone.
I have the IOS app MICROPITCH which is the same as the pedal. Man, it takes the emulated Twin Reverb sound from my Mustang 1 amplifier, and transforms it to something magical..... If you use it once, you will fall in love with it. This is the ultimate app or pedal for guitarists that like clean - quaking strat sound!
It's like MSG for tone
Leon hope you are doing well, thank you for this.
Thank you, you too mate :)
LUSH!
Very Nice Pedal , and a good demo from you as well . As of now my budget is rehearsing (simulaneously) with 3 amplifiers at our studio( two EVH 50 watt / one JC 120) and a few high end effect pedals for each , One which includes my recently purchased MICROPITCH.
My stage rig (for now) Is a EVH 50 wt combo / with a one 12inch seperate cab for a dual mono effect sorta.We are no-where big time local band in our small town , but we ARE THE ONLY band that plays all original music. One day I hope to understand the MIDI WAY, and go that route. Till then this will have to do.I enjoy all your vids on the many differnt pedals/racks/amps ect. on the market. Your video inspired me to buy this pedal .Thank you.
Tasty rig!
Thank you sir
I’ve watched this video like 20 times 🤘🤦🏻♂️
Outstanding
Any word on how it sounds mono? I know it was designed for stereo (as all of eventide's products) but most people will more than likely be not be using a double amp setup
Good /great gear can be expensive. If the $ is limited , you may opt for a speaker cab extension if applicable. This dual mono set up can improve sound quality without breaking the bank.
Hi Leon, that sounds pretty nice, it reminds me a little like the sound of John Sykes on the amazing whitesnake LP in the 80' Is this Love. Very nice thing
Oh yeah, mega Sykes vibe!
@@LeonTodd Leon , before i forget! thanks for your explanation about the Triaxis, I didn't like the sound before, but now it sounds a lot better now. Grts Marc
@@marchermans2318 my pleasure, stoked to hear you're enjoying it more!
This is great!
I wanted to see what this pedal could do and I knew I could count on our thrusty friend Leon Todd to the job. Thanks for all the great reviews!!!!
My pleasure!
So well done brother!
Thanks my man!!!
pedal looks extremely versatile. thanks for sharing.
Thanks for this demo! Helped me decide between this and H9 Max...though the fact I just bought a V4 Eclipse also plays a big factor. Really just need this for this one important part of the "rack" board. THANK YOU!!
Great choice!
Dude..GREAT demo..monster chops...I dig it...well done
Much appreciated!
Good morning Leon! Thanks for sharing brother, Good one! Thanks for using the Strat Today! Be Well All!
Thanks for a very informative review! Now I have to add to my Eventide collection!
What else is in the collection?
@@LeonTodd I have the H9 MAX, Timefactor, Space and the powermax!
I needed a pedal board friendly unit to replace my Korg DL8000R as my main guitar FX unit and this comes close enough, at least for my needs. No more rack cases when gigging is a good thing. Sold the Korg and got plenty of change too.
That's cool to know - the DL8000r has a bit of a cult following so I've been tempted to buy one but the used prices seem a bit much atm.
Hey Leon.... That Pedal is DEFINITELY In my HOLY GRAIL FX Tone Loop! 😎💕🎸
Love that I'm Able to Get the Tone I've been CHASING for the last few Decades.
Thanks for giving me the Extra "Nudge" I needed to pull the Trigger on one of these.
God Bless, Be Safe and Be Well And, I'll be checking Back to see if Eventide is going to make The ELITE Tone, once afforded to only True ROCK STARS WITH DEEP POCKETS, Now, Available to The Rest Of Us 😎!
That makes me so happy to hear you're digging this thing!
@@LeonTodd OH YEAH!!!!
Thanks Leon.... Lost In The HairBand Days for now....can see Plenty of Other Possibilities!
Be Safe And Be Well Brother
😎💕🙏👍
+/- 9 panned hard right and left with 10ms staggered delays and dry down the middle with a 5150, Soldano or Marshall will get you near Van Hagar era EVH. Can get similar with Boss PS 6 and Keeley Halo
Great demo! I got one of these and just learning it. I like your high gain sample the most and I had overlooked that preset at first but found it and modified it to my liking. I turned up the mix and pitches and also the delay time and feedback. Great sound and it is my #1 setting at the moment.
Awesome, thank you!
The “faces”... ha! Awesome pedal. I ordered it on the day of the release. Will be here Tuesday
Congrats! It's a rad pedal
@@LeonTodd it’s money! Really helpful to watch again and follow you, then save the goodies.
Excellent Demo and Playing. I almost forgot that I purchased one a few months ago as I was trying to get the Bias fx 2 to work on the mini 300-watt guitar amp.I hope I'm not stuck with having to carry around more effects pedals as I use a Kemper head, anyway the micro pitch has a great sound and Thank you for the excellent demo.
Thanks for the demo LT, now I’ve gotta get one!
I’m getting one of these but mindful to go easy on the settings so I don’t sound like a synth. Subtle detune and delay will get me the wider sound I want. Next maybe the Boss SDE3000EVH. Thanks for the demo
It is in the Eventide Pitch factor and H9 and the previous rack versions. I do like the simplicity of the dedicated pedal version.
yeah it's arguably THE Eventide effect. Having it as a dedicated pedal makes so much sense.
Sounds awesome!
OK... I’m buying one! 😀 Great demo Leon! I listened to another YT vid, and the fellow sounded like 80’s EVH, overly processed. The clean Strat arpeggios sold it. 😎👍
Thanks mate! As with anything poison is in the dose right :p
Great demo! I like to PLAY my effects, when applicable. This thing does that amply, though I’m still getting used to it. I like to run stereo amps for spread, imaging, which this unit excels at. It’s like an instant acid trip, the lush modulated echos are near limitless in potential. With a warm, chimey clean sound, it becomes a profoundly immersive sound tool. Yet with a distorted, detailed sound, one can thicken, flange, chorus, Leslie, add depth, detail, color. I look forward to adding the tools to fully utilize this device. Because of its flexibility, it could add tremendous functionality to a home studio setting. Perhaps some of the other similar Eventide models would be worth a good demo. Cheers!
Check out my H90 and H3000 vids :)
I’ve had this on my list for a long time…definitely sounds better than my dc2w I think
DC2w and this together is amazing
Mine will be in my mailbox tomorrow. My board is called Glitch and Gloss. This is one is on the gloss side.😅
Holy Crikes! What a monster sounding delay pedal. I like adjusting the pitches till they start sounding wonky, then dime them. 😂
Wow this pedal is totally dope.
Awesome Video Thank You
Glad you enjoyed it
My mouse lays in splinters on the floor. Can't wait to mess with one! Thanks Todorovitch!
@LeonTodd WOW!!! At 9:11 on the timer was "Bottomless Drop" and after hearing it I almost had to call 911.
Sounds like a still chorus. Nice pedal for 80’s rock
Kick ass! Great video! Cheers!
Thankyou!
Great demo video as usual and awesome tunes coming out of this little box.. I'm wonder this pedal's function is being overlapped with my H9's pitch algorithms and/or Eclipse's relevant presets therein?
If you've got an Eclipse you've got the ultimate Eventide unit! (H series owners, fight me)
Would the D-tune feature work with a single amp rig?
It's cool! I'm kind of torn on the approach though.....I think it's very cool that they are giving the option of having specific Eventide effects to people, in pedal form, for those guys who love pedalboards, and the computer editor is cool for the visuals. But, I think I would rather have an Eclipse, or a bigger Eventide, and get everything I need for "ambient effects" (i.e., delay, reverb, pitch, modulation), from a single device.
The Eclipse is, IMO, the greatest single rack unit effects processor ever made. I see the standalone pedals as a great option for people who want one of the classic Eventide flavours to get their fix without shelling out for an Eclipse/H9000 etc
@@LeonTodd Agree. I thought it sounded Stellar in your mega-Detune comparison video. I liked the SPX90, both Lexicon units & the Eclipse ( far & away over the H9 )
Leon, how would you compare this (and I guess the other) eventide pitch sounds with the pitch block in the AxIII, if that's something you can talk about. To me, it's not that the Ax can't do it, I just feel like it's missing something, and I think in not programming that right, but I never had trouble getting good sounds with the eventide stuff.
I've owned both just not at the same time, sold my Pitchfactor before buying my AxIII.
Thanks
I find that adding some modulation in the Axe really helps make it sound a bit more like this.
@@LeonTodd thank you, I'll experiment with that later. I've usually stayed away from modulating it so maybe that's my problem.
The plugin is cool, but the pedal? YES! Sounds great and it's Eventide! Doesn't get any better. Cant find it anywhere yet from my searches. Is it out yet? 👍
Should be out now!
Love the Strat, Leon... I just got a CS 55 that is Nocaster Blonde with the black guard and parts! Maple 51 U neck tho. 😀
YUM!
Have you tried using the Dig and the Micropitch in tandem?
yes, it's glorious!
Will never have to buy another pedal again with this thing
Todd, where would you recommend for the Micropitch to go on a pedalboard with a TriceraChorus ?
Tricera - > MPD
Cool, I thought you were about to break out into some Queensryche around the 3:40 mark :)
I'm wondering if I can use this pedal to emulate Mick Karn's fretless bass tone with Japan and Gary Numan in the 80s. Mick used to record two identical tracks and then hard pan them. It caused both stereo widening and a subtle chorus effect because no two performances on fretless are exactly the same pitch or time no matter how good you are. It would be awesome to be able to do this live.
Want! That’s all. Want!
Hell yes, I am in 100%
Definitely interested to know how this compares to the H9 micropitch and delays
I'll have to do a H9/Eclipse/Micropitch comparison!
Same algorithm but this pedal features two new pitch modulation modes, negative and positive envelope.
@@LeonToddYes please compare them. Can you cover positive/negative envelopes vs ribbon controlling depth/other parameters.
Not sure if I want this or the Tricerachorus! You did a fantastic demo of that as well..
"Why not both?" :p
In all seriousness, if you want that glorious 80's detune + chorus combo Tricera will do it in spades. If you want detune PLUS a great dual delay go for this.
Other than physical knobs and a sweet red enclosure, did you notice anything about the sounds/capabilities that would be different from the MicroPitch algorithm on the H9?
The MicroPitch Delay pedal is the same algorithm as in the H9, but the standalone pedal includes positive and negative envelope modes for more expressive control of the pitch modulation.
@@EventideAudio good to know; thank you!
That's a good pedal. Eventide has done a lot to keep up with the quality of their signal processing, even through the transition from rack to pedal platforms.
There is one thing in particular I was listening for in this demo, but I don't believe I heard it. There isn't much in the way of Reverb in this pedal is there?
For a pedal board build, I would definitely consider a pedal like this one.
As always Leon, Great video and stellar playing! Thank you!
Thanks my man! Yeah this with a Strymon DiG for the SDE style delays and a BOSS DC-2w would cop a lot of those classic 80s cleans.
One Pedal to rule them all….
Great video and as always, Awesome tone and very Tasty playing!! I have this pedal and I’m running it with a reverb into the loop of my Runt 20. Unfortunately, I’m not using it to it’s potential, staying with one preset and actually find it a little confusing. This video is inspiring me to hook it up to my laptop and start tweaking. On the flip side, with the one preset , I’ve been told my clean tone was incredible. Can you save those presets to 1-5 easily? Thx 😎
Great content, as usual, I wondering if you could make a video on how to make the FM3 sounds good direct to FOH ?
I've got a rundown and tutorial on my live FM3 preset up on here
For the Luke 80s tone would this or the Tricerochorus be better? Or is it best to have both?
If you just want the drive effect, tricerachorus gives you that plus an awesome chorus. If you want detune and a great dual delay, get this
Ok SO I INSTANTLY went and ordered this straight after watching this video lol 😆 just wondering which presets are yours as that library looks REALLY extensive on the editor. As soon as you played the No More Tears riff I KNEW I had to have this! If you could let me know I'd appreciate it mate!
I think I submitted 3 presets for this. Rewind your mind is one but I forget the other names
Yeahs thats where the party is right there...lol...great comments
Is it possible to have a high mix of micro pitch with proper delays that aren’t super loud? It seems you can have one but not both? Am I missing something? Trying to get a Van Hagar Balance kinda sound out of it.
What midi controller are you using? I couldn’t catch it.
I had to watch this again..
I'm going to buy one. I want it for the distortion Steve Vai crossroads tone! I love the other stuff though.. I don't remember how many presets you're allowed to have. I think it's 4, but I"ll use at least one for something wild.. I love the presets they have, and I usually don't find presets on a pedal very good without tweaking and this one has some great one's out of the box I see.. I'm playing right now thru the 50 watt Katana and a boss Me 70 and I can use this in the loop..
Does the FM3 do this just as good in tone may I ask sir? I would bet it' can't possibly do this can it? Thanks brother.. Very cool..
Tim
What about the Micropitch in front of the tc electronic Mimiq into 2 amps???😎
G I R T H
you can buy a pedal from eventide including micropitch and much more since more than 5 years! the h9.
for me this single effect units are kind of a step back. the ios software is so great that i can live without the dedicated controls, but have all the great eventide effects in just one pedal.
I love the H9 but the software was a poor off for a lot of people. It's a great option to have for anyone who wants dedicated knobs
@@LeonTodd surprises me. i am a hardware and otb guy, but i love the h9 software. i own the h9 since it was released and while my other pedals are collecting dust, i still use it all the time. i would never have understood what the effects are doing without the software.
@@dirkpehrke9909 same here! I really hope they bring out a H99 or something along those lines that can do 2 or more H9 algos at a time
@@LeonTodd you could still buy one h9 max and the cheaper h9 and use all effects you own on both.
they started offering pedals with single effect pedals way back and then came with the still revolutionary concept of the h9. now they are back with single effects pedals instead of improving the h9 concept. this is what i don‘t get.
@@dirkpehrke9909 different strokes for different blokes I guess. I'm sure a lot of people with rack rigs looked at the H9 and went "so what, racks have been doing that since the late 80's". I have a few friends who just didn't want to know about the H9 but then saw this and immediately bought one.
Man!!...you sold me the Eclipse and now i want this one!!!
if you get an eclipse, you won't need this one!
@@Simeon_Harris pretty much!
Though one thing really stood out to my ear here, which was just how SMOOTH that feedback sounded for those "reverby" ambient sounds. I usually don't hear it get that smooth for short delay time, high-feedback scenarios unless there's heavy filtering involved (which is definitely happening through the Tone control) and either diffusion or bit reduction going on in the feedback path....given your experience with these units, do you think they're emulating the bit reduction the old "dinosaur" pitch shifters had here? Do you think there's something special going on here, a little bit out of the ordinary, that allows it to sound so smooth there?
@@rblossey it's a delay with detune, rather than a pitch shifter with predelay, so very different algorithms. it's just filtering as far as i can tell. the eclise could do this easy. in fact the detune part of this pedal isn't very stereo (listen on headphones, it's almost down the middle) which is weird.
Simeon speaks truth! The Eclipse is an incredible machine.
"Let`s try it with some utter filth! "
eventide seems to be making a pedal for every algorithm in the H9
i'd love the Vintage Delays algo from the Eclipse in this format
The sound at 9:12 is screaming to be on the next Ragdoll record.
DEAL!
Great vid Leon, question please, how does the Micropitch compare to the Mimic in widening the sound ?, keep up the good work
Micropitch is a little smoother and more "predictable" and sounds more like one massive guitar tone while the Mimic does a great job at getting the doubling vibe across.
Ive been trying to get a Rhoads/Sykes tone with this!
Hi Leon. Thanks for the vids. Quick question. Recently picked up an yngwie strat that came with 7’s on it. Was curious how heavy you go on strings for yours? I’m used to heavier strings but this is my first scalloped neck and not sure how heavy I should go. Thanks.
Ygm plays 8s...i play nines, they make 7s but they are very different metals to be able to be effective for 15 or 20 minutes of hard use. 9s seem to be bendable and hold up for a week or more, just my observation. 9s work better when you drag your strat across the top of a monitor, if you are trying to do the yng whey thing...lol. Those 7s will tend to detune just from finger weight on the scalloped neck, try playing a note with the old tuner hooked up and you can damn near bend an octave just by finger pressure alone.
10-52's on mine
Thank you both.
Killer Video! HELP! How do I set up with other effects in stereo in effects loops of two amps without slaving one amp?
A TRS to dual TS cable for the input could do it.
Well i think this is available in the H9.
Yes, this is available as the MicroPitch algorithm in the H9. However, worth noting that this new MicroPitch Delay standalone pedal also includes 2 new pitch modulations modes.
@@EventideAudio cool i have the H9 maxed out and pretty happy with it ;)
If this question has been asked I apologize...
I have an old JCM800 2203 without an fx loop
I love the tones that come from this amp!
Is there a way to use it without a loop?
Thank you in advance!
So there’s no way to adjust the delay mix?
It works the same way the old H3000 Microshift algorithm works - each voice is fed to a detuner and then the amount of delay can be adjusted, as opposed to being stereo detuner -> stereo delay.
Dayum
Sorry for the dumb question!
How do I access the presets the are being used on the computer? Specifically around the 9 and half minute mark?
Thx for the sweet demo. Did you connect the pedal in series or did you use a line mixer? Cheers!
In this example it's in series
Would running this into the front of a Plexi without an FX loop work or is this really built for FX loops?
I’ve ran it through the FX loop and in front of the amp and both sound gorgeous, this pedal is incredible no matter what you do with it. This and a Plexi would be a killer tone.
7:39 😍
Great review Leon. Checked out the rest and came back to the best. Do you have the spec of the delay time range please? All the best from the UK
Up to 6 seconds which is fun for microloops!
Thanks for replying Leon, can't wait for this to be available, Tc plethora going to be on ebay, but the Digitech Luxe is a keeper. Presets seem usable, Landau and Lukather in a pedal, EVH for days. Happy place 🤟
Hi there Leon. Another great review. Do you think those 90’s vh or sykes pitch thing is also possible with your pcm81 or yamaha spx?
Yes indeed. I'll be doing a PCM81 vid on detune soon!
@@LeonTodd great man!!
Why are there two Preset lights on? I thought it was one light for each of the 5 presets? Can’t find any explanation in their manual.
Can we use the preset memory on stage without the need of a computer, via a midi pedal for exemple ? If it's the case thé guitar heroe on my band would be happy, he does'nt like is line 6 delay and play on a vintage valve Marshall.
Am I able to put this pedal between the guitar and audio interface (recording in the DAW) without a DI box?
What's a jewel delay?
