Eventide's Blackhole reverb gets an other-worldly discount

Eventide's reality-busting reverb plugin, Blackhole is benefitting from an epic discount of 75% off until the end of March.

Originally an algorithm in Eventide's DSP4000 and H8000 Ultra-Harmonizer hardware processors, then their Space stompbox, and now a Mac/PC plugin (AAX, AU, VST), Blackhole is a unique reverb designed to create massive 'alien' ambiences and sound design effects, as opposed to realistic spaces.

Features include:

  • Over 50 presets to inspire, including artist presets by: Richard Devine, Flood & Alan Moulder, Sigur Rós, Vernon Reid and John Agnello
  • Unique "Gravity" control allows you to invert the decay mode of the reverb
  • Mix Lock allows you to scroll through presets or settings while keeping the wet/dry mix constant
  • Flexible mono and stereo options for inputs and outputs
  • Kill Switch kills the input so you only hear the reverb, great for sound design and automation
  • Innovative Ribbon and HotSwitch allow for changing any combination of parameters simultaneously

Blackhole is on sale for $49 until 31 March 2016 (MSRP $199). Owners of Anthology X qualify for the crossgrade price of $19. A fully-functional, 30-day demo is available at any time. Visit the Eventide website for more information.

I take care of the reviews on MusicRadar and Future Music magazine, though can sometimes be spotted in front of a camera talking little sense in the presence of real musicians. For the past 30 years, I have been unable to decide on which instrument to master, so haven't bothered. Currently, a lover of all things high-gain in the guitar stakes and never one to resist churning out sub-standard funky breaks, the likes of which you'll never hear.
