Blackhole is available for $279 (MSRP) from Eventide dealers At longer decay times, Blackhole allows the articulation to shine through without competing with the reverb tail.ĭiscover what lies beyond mere halls, rooms, plates and springs Eventide’s Blackhole pedal transports tone The unique Gravity control can custom-tailor the reverb tail in two realms – normal or inverse decay – to create interesting swells or suck the dry signal back into the reverb tail.

Movement can be added to the EQ controls via an expression pedal. Blackhole’s tone controls can be used to add airiness or tame the low end. Blackhole’s Catch-up mode helps dial in a sound when toggling between presets/parameters, while tone can be fine-tuned with Lo, Hi and Q (resonance) controls. Any combination of parameters can be mapped to an expression pedal. Reverb size can range from a cartoonishly small room to a limitless universe, while PreDelay can offset the onset of the reverb. Unlike other reverbs which may offer pre or post modulation, Blackhole features modulation built into the very reverb structure itself this modulation can be used to smooth out the rough edges of the most extreme settings and offers unique tone-shaping ability. The Freeze Footswitch allows instant access to this feature. “Infinite mode” continuously layers new sound on top of a suspended reverb while “Freeze mode” holds the effect in stasis, allowing musicians to play over the reverb tail. With this degree of flexibility, Blackhole provides a journey from cathedral-esque spaces to a new frontier of aural experimentation, unlocking a universe of sound-sculpting capability.īlackhole opens boundaries with two types of infinite reverb. MIDI capability is available over TRS (for use with a MIDI to TRS cable or converter box) or USB. Blackhole offers multiple Bypass options: Buffered, Relay, DSP+FX or Kill dry. A single Aux switch can be deployed to Tap Tempo, or a triple Aux switch can be used for easy preset changing (up/down/load). The rear-panel Guitar/Line Level switch allows impedance matching with guitars, synths, FX loops or DAW interfaces. Five presets can be loaded at a player’s feet for access from a latching/momentary Dual-action Active Footswitch. With Blackhole, users can pick and choose from five otherworldly presets to create supermassive atmospheres with the ethereal reverb of Blackhole, soar through nimbus clouds with the airy delay of Dark Matter, achieve sonic supernovas with the resounding swirl of Nebula, experience an uncharted galaxy of sound with the warmth of Singularity, and achieve a stellar rotation of sonority with Pulsar – or get creative and create presets on their own.īlackhole can load as many as 127 presets via MIDI, which are also accessible in the preset list on the Eventide Device Manager (EDM – a PC or Mac application for software updates, system settings and creating/saving presets). A historic element of Eventide’s sound, the Blackhole algorithm was introduced in Eventide's DSP4000 Ultra-Harmonizer hardware processor and now opens a host of possibilities on a pedalboard. With its new user-friendly, intuitive interface, just about anyone can shoot for the moon and land beyond the known universe.

Like all Eventide pedals, Blackhole allows players to fine-tune every aspect of the effect.
