Eventide Crystals is an H9 Series pitch-shift and reverb plug-in designed to deliver the renowned Crystal Echoes effect from the H3000 Harmonizer, rendering it a handy tool for ambient and electronic music production, sound design, and film scoring. It features dual 4-octave pitch shifters and two independent delays, each with up to four seconds of delay and separate feedback controls. Plus, the reverb offers up to 100 seconds of decay time for massive, ethereal soundscapes.
In addition to the onboard Ribbon control, which allows you to morph between two configurations of parameters, live MIDI control is also possible. Adjust reverb decay time, pitch mix, and reverb mix. A simple press of the Flex button raises both voices up an octave. Managing your levels is easy, thanks to the input and output sliders and dedicated I/O meters. Eventide Crystals is compatible with macOS/Windows computers and Apple iOS-based mobile devices, and supports AAX Native, Audio Units, VST2, and VST3 plug-in formats.
