H8000 Family Presets Manual 1 Release 1.7
The H8000 Family Preset Collection
Introduction
The members of the H8000 Family each have well over one thousand five hundred presets, covering
the whole range of audio effects. In this manual, all members of the H8000 Family will be referred
to using the generic H8000.
The best way to quickly find the best effect for a given application is to make use of the powerful
real-time database features on the PROGRAM page, as described in the separate User Manual.
To get an overview, as well as a feel for the wide selection of effects the H8000 offers, a stroll
through this manual is recommended. The presets are grouped by bank and placed in numerical
order. Any numbered preset can be quickly found by using its top two digits (one digit for a 3 digit
number) as the Bank Number in the Contents section.
A given preset may be identified by its name or its number. Many presets are supplied in several
versions with the same name and number - they can be further distinguished by the number of
channels they process and the audio sample rates they can handle, as well as whether they are
monolithic, meaning that they occupy both of the H8000’s two processing machines, or whether they
fit in one machine, allowing another effect to be used simultaneously in the other machine.
Sometimes, a number of presets may share the same basic structure or algorithm. Different versions
of this structure will be provided, with their parameter values carefully tuned to produce a desired
effect - these variants are popularly known as tweaks.
Each preset will be labeled either 48, meaning that it can only operate up to 48kHz sampling, or 96,
meaning that it can operate at all the H8000’s supported sample rates. In many cases with larger
presets, two versions are supplied - a monolithic version that runs at 96kHz and a single machine
version that runs at 48kHz. Two single machine presets may be run at the same time.
A given preset may have from 0 to 8 inputs and from 0 to 8 outputs. A preset with no inputs is
typically an oscillator or other generator, whereas a preset with no outputs is usually a display-only
device. Some utility calculators have neither inputs or outputs – these will block any signal routed
through them.
H8000 Family Presets Manual 3 Release 1.7
The H8000 Family Preset Collection
Many presets are flagged with recommended source material or application types:
o V - vocal
o G - guitar
o D - drums
o S - surround
o K - keyboard
o X - Special Effects
The H8000 offers the following effect types - any given preset may have a combination of some or all of
them:
oP - Pitch: Eventide invented the concept of the pitch shifting effect and is the leader in the field. The pitch
shifters offered include Diatonic shifters, which shift by a musical interval within a specified
key and Ultrashifter, a formant-corrected vocal shifter. There are also Reverse and Custom Scales shifters, as well as the more familiar Chromatic variety.
o R - Reverb: A reverb may range from an emulation of a spring line to a grand canyon.
o D - Delay: Digital delays ranging from a few samples up to several minutes at 48kHz sampling.
o E - EQ: The equalization offered by the H8000 ranges from simple “high cut” tone contro ls to 32 band
multi-channel parametric equalizers.
oM - Modulation: The way a parameter of the effect may be controlled or swept by a slow-running oscillator or
other signal source. This allows a range of effects including auto-panners, tremolos and
vibratos, as well as flangers and phasers when modulation is applied to delay or filter elements.
oY - Dynamics: A general term describing a range of amplitude-sensitive effects, covering the field from

H8000 Family Presets Manual 16 Release 1.7
The H8000 Family Preset Collection
Banks and Presets
The H8000 does not use banks in the same way as the DSP4000 and Orville. However, the presets are
arranged in such a way that the first two of the four digits of the preset number may be thought of as a bank
number. Presets sharing this bank number will be similar in type or function. When the preset is selected on the
Program screen, the bank name will be briefly displayed to give a clue as to the preset’s genre.
1 Simple
List of banks and also basic Mute, Thru and Oscillator presets.
10 H8000 Banks 96 8,8
11 Mute 96 0,0
Nothing in, nothing out. That’s all.

The preset's input is electronically connected to the output. Octal in and out.
13 Oscillator (440) 96 0,8
{M} General-purpose oscillator. On loading it is set to a 440 Hz sine wave for tuning. LFO (fm) allows addition of an offset
and modulation. Output will clip above +12dB. Aliasing will be audible on triangular and square waves at higher
frequencies. Nothing in, mono out.
14 Note Oscillator 96 4,4
{Y} A simple oscillator whose frequency is that of the chosen note. Quad in, quad out.

215 Big Muff W/ Dead 9v 96 2,2
{E}[G] As used by Mr. S.Vai. This preset has been modified with an attenuation so that speakers and ears are safe. To get the
original quality of sound with all the gurgles, turn down your listening amp WAY DOWN !!! and put the 'atten' parameter
all the way up. This is ADC converter overload. Sounds like its time to change that 9-volt battery in your distortion pedal.
Distortion and EQ. Mono in, mono out.
216 Enhancer 96 2,2
{RDE} As used by Mr. Satriani. Slow chorus-like rotation and tight reverb effect. Full and warm. A very smooth and rich shimmer
is added to your sound. This will not get in your way and adds a lot. Summed in, stereo out.

4 Beatcounter
These presets are based on a beat counter algorithm. Feed the left channel with the source you want to delay
and the right channel with the time setting source, e.g. a snare drum. The unit will calculate the timing and
ignore all figures like rolls and fills played in between. For panners and choruses the calculated time is
converted into a frequency rate.

7 Delays - Loops
This bank contains a number of looping presets based on the longdelay module. This module is only available
in DSP A; the presets using it will thus only be loadable on DSP A.
This is a truly amazing collection really unique in the audio industry. You would need an array of several
looping, processing and mixing units to try to achieve what some of these presets can do ! Others are not even
possible outside of the Eventide platform. Here are some examples: pre and post loop pitch shifters, 4
speakers panning, rotating or reflecting loops, multi-track loopers, polyrhythmic and “canon” style loops,
criss-cross feedback loops, real-time timesqueeze processed loops, reverb/delay post-processed loops,
harmony shiftable loops.
A note on use:
Loops have Assign 2 patched to loop input level (volume pedal) by default. Make sure you have a volume pedal
connected to rear panel Pedal 1 or 2 inputs or any midi real time controller patched to Assign 2.
710 Fractal Vortex 96 2,2
{DMY}[GVKX](tim) Cascade looper with envelope control of the looper's input mix. Its output is fed into a panner which
sprays the effect into a stereo glide, fed also directly by dry input. Envelope bias adjusts sensitivity of modulation for the
input/feedback mix of the looper. Loud signals add new audio to loop, decreasing level of old layers. Soft signals keep both
in the loop. Echo balance: when set at min, the mix is all Echo 1, at max. it's all Echo 2. In between settings produce echo
rhythm that change over time. Assign 2: floor door. Set feedback at 90/95%. Summed in, stereo out.

8 Delays – Modulated
A Bank offering a wide variety of modulated delays. Sophisticated stereo, multi-channel and 5.1 manipulations
are also included. Here is where you’ll find mono, stereo and multi-channel choruses, flangers, Leslie
simulators, panning moddelays and many of their variations and enhancements, including some clever
emulations of old favorites.
{DM}[VK] Eight flangers modulated such that at any time four are going 'up' and 4 are going 'down'. The result is a flanger that
doesn't really go anywhere... it just sounds 'flangey'. The effect takes a few seconds to kick in. The 'dry' signal is also
delayed 1/2 the value of 'Depth'. Summed in, quad out.

parallel to them. One of the secrets to a great chorus/delay sound is the random interactivity in their sweep patterns. A
volume pedal is placed at the input of the structure. A very flexible algorithm. Summed in, stereo out.
812 Auto Tape Flanger 96 2,2
{DM}(TT) The real deal. This pup can sound like you're rocking the reels. Sweep delays parallel to fixed delays so you can go
through zero. Stereo in and out.
