Good playing, but are any other pedals before the amp ? Very important, and misleading. Sounds great, but hopefully Tim there aren’t 5 boutique pedals hooked up. Answer, Eventide has some great stuff.

I don't know why I tune into this channel and watch Tim play other than the fact that I love to listen to him play. It only takes a minute for him to prove beyond a doubt how smart I was to hang on to my day job all these years.

Musician = person that drives a 500 dollar car with 5,000 dollars worth of equipment to a gig that pays 50 dollars. For 99.9 percent of players, being a pro is an invocation, not a vocation... but, that's not the point...

Tim, I'm still floating over the fact the you played the fantastic lead on Bon Jovi's Runaway. That is truly one of my all time favorites. Just awesome!

Useful to see you go through many of the algorithms Tim from your musical perspective. I love this pedal as well. Love you and your channel! Thanks for spreading your knowledge with such enthusiasm!!

Tim looks so happy playing in the beginning. It really brightened my day.

Tim, I love your videos and watch every single one! Not because I am always that interested in the actual review but to see the joy you get from playing, particularly in your intros! Your joy brings joy to me! Thank you!

Always a pleasure, Tim, Thanks for your efforts.

I bought one for my birthday. I played a whole day with a very subtle room reverb. The effect itself was barely audible but it made the guitar sound so good that I couldn’t get enough of it.

Thank you for such a deep walk-through, *strung together* by many tasteful melodic phrases. Wow!!

One of the best pedal ever made hands down.

I set up an in the drawer Iphone 6 which is clipped to the mike stand for the 10 settings I use it for most the time..then you buy the Barnes 3 and attach this to the front which give you up down on the fly,,you set your 10 most used settings on the first 10. Troy Van Leeuwen has this all over the QOTSA. The key is to go into the crazy settings and then you tweek them back to make them musical as Tim says!

Just the sheer pleasure you express while playing is a gift. Thank you so much for this video Sir! :)

Every vid that starts with your leads inspires me to pick up my guitar and try more. Its the smile part plus the expert skill and musicality of the work.

Thanks Tim...always a pleasure to see you.

I absolutely agree with you! With 2 H9 you can make huge sounds and forget a lot of other boxes!

These videos are always rich with something new to learn every time. A true musician I'd say. Cheers

Fantastic playing, Tim! Love seeing someone who knows what they’re doing loving the jam!

Excellent video and absolutely great playing! I was considering one of these, and now I might just get one. Thank you for taking the time to make this, it was very helpful!

This is great, Thank you Tim!

Tim, you're a sick man! Such a joy to hear you play sir!

That is a great sound with real smooth playing from Mr Pierce. Must have one of these.

Fabulous video Tim! Thank you so much!

Just got my H9 a few months ago and haven't been able to really dive into it yet. This video made me decide to find the time to do so.

Thanks Tim. The H9 IS an incredible pedal that I use almost exclusively when recording. Eventide is releasing some of these algorithms as plug-ins.

Great video Tim!!! Thanks. I love that peddle. Need to get another.

Great playing, love the enthusiasm :)

Thanks for demystifying this incredible pedal for us!

Ill be going to pick one of these up for sure. That is just awsome.

Great fun to experiment with on a rainy weekend inside. 😃

As a bass playing songwriter/producer, Tim's channel is such a huge help to me in terms of learning about guitar.

My H9 has been cemented to my board for nearly seven years. It does so many things so well it’s ridiculous. Not to mention it does so many things that no other pedals can.

Just traded out my old HX effects for one of these yesterday. Honestly, it is like getting the effects engine from every high-end processor on the planet (Fractal, Eventide, Kemper, etc) in a tiny little box. It alone blows the HX series stuff out of the water. The character of the tone and effects is truly something special. I run this in stereo in the loop of my Synergy rack and it is glorious. Totally silent and zero delay in effects switching.

Thank you Tim!!

The joy in your soul can be seen playing that intro

Another amazing backing track Tim! The drums are awesome!

You know I’ve had one of these for quite a while and I’ve alway really liked the sound as well. Especially the delays. Recently, I’ve dug it back out and begun to work with it again. I’m at this place now where everything in it is so great all over again. I’ve got to say, you’ll learn to appreciate this pedal more after you take it off your board for a while. Great video, and thanx to you! I’m off to use this puppy right now!!!

I really appreciate the gear reviews 👍🏽

My issue with many of the ALL IN THE BOX FX pedals is that If I want to have different iterations of things - I can't have them all running together and then switch them in or out of the signal sequence like I could with individual stomp boxes. For a session player, these units make a LOT of sense ... but for somebody looking to experiment on the fly organically, these units have their limitations.

I love how studio musicians never really over play.

Yup. I was thinking “this is one of the most renowned guitarists of my time and I could technically play all that but NEVER create it or get that hand feel”. That’s so much more interesting and respected by me than shredders.

WOW! That was GREAT! I always thought of the H9 as being a device that would be best used in an amp's FX loop, but Tim really shows off some great capabilities that it has running in front! This could replace a bunch of devices I have in front of my amp currently! Thanks for posting this! This site is great! :)

One of the most useful and trustworthy gear reviews I’ve ever seen. He didn’t try to sell me a crap pedal. He showed me why one of his pedals is great. I’d have saved thousands had they all done that.

Great stuff. Thanks.

I have 2 of them and an H7600. Cannot imagine living without them. They are incredibly good!

Great video! Was cool see a video by you on something I actually own. Would be interesting fir you make a video on presets you made for H9.

YES!!! I bought this yesterday and it should be here tomorrow... Did not see this b4 I bought it.. I am super geeked now. thx :)

I got the H9 a couple months ago. Awesome sounds with my Orange Rocker 32. The Orange is true stereo which makes the sound quality unbelievable. To be truly usable though you need a midi pedal to control it. I'm using the Morningstar MC6 midi controller

Absolutely love your leads. You're creative and tell a story with dynamics, covering a wide range of styles. I creative ryhthm player, my leads sound mondaine to me.

I run 2 seperate H9 max on my board. Through my effects loop connected via midi. It's incredibly versatile and sounds great.

Thank you! I agree just so musical

great channel. I just got my H9 3 days ago. WOW!

I like your demos Tim. I don’t have to wait for some guitar player to show me all he’s got for the one effect. What tops it off is by the time you're done we have heard every algorithm on board. Very productive demo thanks.. Michael...MikeLWork

Amazing set up

Not trying to sound like a trip, but I own 5 H-9 Max pedals. I actually run two H-9s one two separate EHX Key-9 that run parallel into a mixer that makes it sound like keyboards are following my guitar chord progressions. I put one in my Kemper effects loop too, which runs parallel into mixer.... H-9 Max is beast!!!

There is no substitute when recording. So many great tones at your fingertips!

I see the H9 on so many boards it's got to be good! Cheers Tim!!

This is just making me want to get one - even though I can’t imagine why I would need _more_ gear.

This tone is amazing!

I have 2 H9 Max (es?)..anyway..the sheer amount..of useable, musical and creative sounds in those white boxes is mind boggling and endlessly inspirational..and then there's the app tweakablility..on and on..thanks Tim for preaching the gospel of the mighty H9!

I have the H9 max too and love it very much.......

Every video here is like a music lesson for me I love what you play

Good Job. I just got a H9 Max. I play a Robin Trower Style Blues Rock sound. This will be Great. I also have a Volume pedal I hope to use with this to control the speed etc on chorus and Uni Vibe. Keep up the good work...Im a Old school Guitar Player that 1st Album was The Whole Darn Family Has Arrived. Im the guy driving the Rolls. Hope to release some of my New Music next year. Tommy TBAR Bryant

Tim, great video so glad you did this one. I have had my eye on Eventide gear for awhile. I am debating an H9 vs one of the older rack mount style Harmonizers (that I've wanted since high school lol). Can you comment on how the H9 compares to some of that older rack gear or even the Eclipse? I am mainly looking for the diatonic harmonies, delays, reverbs etc... just the basics really. It seems like some of the newer patches can kind of go off the deep end pretty quickly.

your vid made me dig out my H9 Max again ... Thanks

Dayum, Tim! That's some tasty licks!

My Swiss Army Knife for sure....and I've gotten some truly unique sounds out of it

One thing that people fail to mention that I love is the fact when using Computer, iPad/iPhone or Android you don't have to keep bending over to make adjustments on a pedal, it's right at your fingertips!

One very cool thing that Eventide’s doing with these H9’s is that if you buy a Max, you not only get ALL of the algorithms, you get ALL of the new ones they ever come out with FOR LIFE! AND ...(“but wait, don’t call yet, there’s more!”) if you buy a Max, you can connect up to 5 Cores (the cheapest version) and you can convert all of the Cores into Maxes FOR FREE!!!! Brilliant!!!!

Studio69 Thanks, bud. I wound up with 4 because since they’ll only do one effect at a time, I wanted to have one for each pedal application (modulation, time, environment, and color) so that I have independent control of each. Also, be sure to check out Barn 3’s aftermarket stuff for H9. It adds two more buttons to it that you can program to do anything, along with the Tesla remote switch that you can also program to do whatever you want, plus the ability to put it anywhere on your board that you want. I have a Tesla switch on the very bottom left corner of my board and I programmed it to toggle in and out of tuner mode on the furthest left H9, along with muting the signal when it’s in the aforementioned tuner mode. It’s also handy to use as a crude mute for patches like Shimmer for when you want to abruptly kill its decay. Just a quick two stomps on the Tesla in and out of tuner mode. (I’m sure there’s a more elegant way to do it. Haha but it’s gets me where I’m goin’.) Enjoy, brutha!!!!

Wow - Tim, your musicality in creating gorgeous phrasing is absolutely sublime! I’m looking for an instrumental album you produced of yourself ( i hope you did one) cause i will buy it, like NOW. Hope to one day meet you and say thanks in person for all the inspiration. Maybe take you for a Tommy Burger or something...

H9 is my Swiss Army knife, on my board for years now. I play Stereo in a small duo and it really fills out. Now, if I could just play like Tim.

Would be great to see you tour through the H3000 and Eclipse, I have never tried either.

For anyone interested these are available used, at all times essentially, on reverb.com.

Way cool!! Can you make a video on slide guitar, and also on playing with a tremolo pedal?

Glad you got to the blackhole. Probably my favorite algorithm. Great video man, thanks for doing this.

Nice Tim! It is a great sounding pedal. But it's also it great hands. 😎

from first second great sound like a Guitarland which I love.

That pedal is amazing!

Very nice!

Love my Eventides!

I like the fact you use the divided by 13 amp as a pedal stand

Ballerina - Thats a Steve Vai patch

..And the used prices on H9’s just skyrocketed! Love your videos, always great and useful content!

And no link! Awesome. Actually someone you can trust on KZread.

6:24 Great riff. Kind of like the Funky Munsters. 12:33 Reminds me of Edge.

The Line 6 M5 pedal offers MIDI functionality but a limit of one effect at a time. Still, the effects it offers includes trichorus and Dimension D modulation which is more than most at the same price point. Worth considering for those whose budgets can't stretch all the way to an H9.

OoooOOOoo I like those sounds. I use a Rocktron Intellifex to get those sounds but it's rackmount and I would love to have a pedal that can do all of that.

Right now I am trying to decide between just the Blackhole pedal (I have to have that algorithm) or get a H9 Max. I already have a Boss DD-500 and it's great (the Tera Echo is superb). I even like my first generation TC G-Major, but I would really love a pedal that could do it all and save space and cables. An H9 together with the DD-500 would be glorious. I only have to decide how big of an argument I want to risk.

Here's how I know Tim Pierce is a great guitarist: I never know it's him when I hear him. People have always said you know a great guitarist because you can hear a few notes and immediately recognize them. I believe the exact opposite. A true master isn't bound by their own tendencies. It's extremely hard to break those chains.

This pedal is incredible, but your slide precision... that’s really incredible! Did anyone see that?

Yeah, I noticed that too. Side is way harder than it looks! I mean, it's not hard to play slide, but it's hard to play slide in TUNE. Tim does it perfectly.

I have the same view with my Timefactor. Any other delay feels like an awkward blend between wet and dry. Maybe it's just what I'm used to. Also have the H9 Max. It's not going anywhere!

Thx so much...this is fantastic. Also , your vibrato is 'sooo smooth'. 👍 Do you have an exercise you recommend? I rely too much on my tremolo.
