simon Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) https://www.eventideaudio.com/products/reverb/reverb/shimmerverb as regular as clockwork (see what I did there!) - yet another plug from Eventide Seems like they are churning out these H9 plugins - none of them are particularly spectacular and I suspect they are quite the cash cow for Eventide.... anyway - everyplugin is cheapest as usual http://everyplugin.com/shimmerverb.html I'm gonna take the plunge but I'm starting to think that these H9 plugs don't represent great value even at the introductory discount level...just my 2c obviously Edited August 4, 2020 by simon 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallstonefan Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 This seems very similar to Crystals... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSMcGuitar Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I love what they did with the GUI this time around. Very unique 🤣 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Maar Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Purchased from Koby. Anyone remember the hell you had to go through to automate the ribbon on the early Blackhole releases? They figured that one out pretty quick. Ribbons everywhere now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSteven Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Looking into my crystal ball.. At some point after Eventide has produced a dozen or more of these they will introduce the H9 Native that contains all of these modules as presets. I can see the marketing now... Over $1000 worth of effects and plugins for only $399* - the H9 Native! A virtual H9 for your DAW! *Intro price MSRP $699 No inside information or illegal pharmaceuticals were used in this bit of fortune telling just common sense and an observation on marketing trends. 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very unique 🤣 Are they deliberately trying to be retro? Has it been long enough that plug-ins can be retro to earlier plug-in UI design? 'Cause these things are partying like it's 1999. Those knurled knobs hurt my cursor, and the glare from the shiny pushbuttons hurts my eyes after a while. But I am happy for the giant segmented LCD "SHIMMERVERB" because sometimes I forget what plug-in I'm using. The demo does sound pretty frickin' great, though....as a handy, inexpensive way to get some classic Eventide algorithms, more power to 'em. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fwrend Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 (edited) FYI, currently only $31.20 @ JRRShop with code "newpasword" - must be logged in and only item in your cart. EDIT: corrected price Edited August 7, 2020 by Fwrend 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ensconced Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 (edited) Seeing how you can get it from everyplugin for $32.74, only $1.54 extra, I would keep that newpassword code for something else you might want like upgrading Melodyne or something that will save you a bit more, if there is such a thing for you, but that's just me.

bitflipper Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 I have loved Eventide hardware since the 80's, even though it was out of my price range back then. Today I would have every Eventide software product, if not for my no-iLok policy. If anyone else is similarly put off by the iLok requirement, tritik's new Irid isn't as pretty but has a nearly identical feature set and (to my ears) a very similar sound.

I've posted this before; this plugins are ports of the "factor" series of pedals. The H9 is posterior and was a way to pack this algorithms in a more compact and affordable way (although the H9 has a few exclusive algorithms also).
