General
The Eventide Eclipse is the only effect processor in its class with 24-bit digital conversion and 96 kHz sampling. It has two effect blocks with close-to 100 of Eventide's best and most legendary algorithms. Thanks to the dual routing configurations, the Eclipse be used as two independent effect processors; ideal for smaller, budget-conscious studios. The dual inputs and outputs can be used in both mono and stereo for extra spatial effects without any compromise on quality.
Eventide Eclipse V4: The Sheer Scale of Effects
The Eclipse houses every one of the effects that made Eventide so renowned. Seamless pitch-shifting, including the innovative Micro pitch-shift, which FOH technicians and singers use to turn good vocals into great vocals. The Eclipse has 11 reverb algorithms plus 4 plex algorithms, all faithfully taken from Eventide's Orville and DSP7000 series. Every reverb is fully stereo in and out. Every effect from the TimeFactor and ModFactor stomp boxes have been added alongside a total of more than 500 presets, including amplifier models and distortions.
Delays and Loops
A battalion of delays has been packed into the Eclipse V4. Band delays, chorus, delays, comb delays, ducked delays, ring delays and pan delays to create sultry and dense sound landscapes. With 20 seconds of memory per effect block, the Eclipse is a dream-maker. You easily get lost in its 20 second mono loop, 10 second double loops, 20 second reverse loop and 10 second double reverse loops. The loop presets that work on one effect block also keep the second effect block free to add extra texture and dimension to your loops!
Flexible Inputs and Outputs
At the rear every connection you would ever need has been fitted, including AES / EBU, S / PDIF and ADAT Lightpipe for digital applications. Analogue connections are covered by balanced XLR and unbalanced 6.3 mm inputs and outputs and 6.3 mm jack connections that accept high impedance instrument signals. There's a Word Clock in and out via BNC connectors and two connections for external pedals. Naturally, the Eclipse fully supports MIDI (in / out / thru) and there is an adapter input for feeding MIDI pedals. There's even a serial port for future software updates.
