Eventide H90 Harmonizer, User Manual

Page: 83 / 176

Saturation: Simulates analog tape saturation. Ranges from ‘0’ (none) to ‘10’ (max) for the warm
compression and distortion associated with overdriven tape.
Tape Wow: Simulates analog tape Wow. Wow is a term used to describe relatively slowly changing
pitch and amplitude modulations caused by problems with the motor or tape transport that causes
the tape’s motion across the head to vary. A well maintained tape recorder should have no audible
Wow. Ranges from ‘0’ (none) to ‘10’ (max).
Tape Flutter: Simulates tape machine Flutter. Like Wow, Flutter is caused when the tape motion
across the magnetic heads isn’t constant. Flutter is a more rapidly changing variation than Wow.
Flutter ranges from 0 (none) to 10 (max).
Filter: Controls the fi lter characteristics to simulate tape recorder frequency response. As you
increase the fi lter value, you’ll hear a more pronounced tape tone.
UltraTap
UltraTap is a versatile multi-tap delay-line effect capable of a myriad of sounds from rhythmic and glitchy
delays, to wacky comb
fi ltering, to huge pad-like volume swells, to unique reverbs, tremolos, and
everything in between. It’s the perfect tool for creating drum fi lls, vocal choruses, swelling guitar chords
and other evolving effects.
