Hello!

As you may have seen from leaks, Eventide are unveiling a new stompbox called Space! It's reverb, but being Eventide, 'traditional' reverbs are just the beginning. From their press release:

Space features 12 of Eventide’s signature reverb combination effects taken from the H8000FW and Eclipse V4 along with some startling new magic. These unique effects, previously available only in Eventide rack processors, are now available in a compact, roadworthy package. Never before has there been a more dazzling collection of reverb algorithms combined with delays, pitch shifting, tremolo, modulation, and special effects in such a compact and affordable package. Space will be available in February at an Eventide stompbox dealer near you.

Eventide - Space

I spent some time with a preproduction unit, and so you can listen to a Moog Voyager through Space here! Click through for notes as to what you're hearing...



EDIT: And a nice pic of a final production unit:

Sounds very good. Thank you for posting this.

Tremoloverb and mangleverb sounds like a lot of fun. Black hole sounds as beatifull as always.

Thanks! Just seen this appear too:

*drooool*

I've been eyeing off the Strymon reverb pedal but I think this one will come out on top. Any ideas on the price?

Honestly, you should get a gearslutz award for posting this. I thought I would have to wait weeks to hear that thing and now this! Awesome

It's already listed at sweetwater for 499.-$ http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/Space/

sounds amazing!

couldnt one get an old harmonizer from them for $500??

not trying to hate of course, the display is awesome

I'm surprised how non-digital it sounds... especially for a digital box. Anyone know by chance if the knobs are rubber or plastic? I'm tactile. I despise plastic.

Same as the PitchFactor - In the UK the RRP is £499.

Well they are plastic in the middle but there's a kind of rubberised coat on them so they're nicely grippy. Pots are really solid, it feels good.

Sounds great! Buying this for sure.

Thanks for making the demo!

Word. Thanks. thumbsup

I watched a guitar player demo this live at the NAMM show yesterday and it was really cool. I think my comment was, it's like having David Gilmour's FX rack with you in a pedal. Really neat stuff.

Hey source, thanks for putting up the demo with a synth! I figured it would take forever for someone to come out with one.

This seems like a great partner for modern analogs like the P08, with analog bypass and line level stereo i/o.

This will for sure make selling my H8000FW much easier to swallow! And at $579 that's a pretty hard price to beat! I sold my Timefactor and Modfactor without any regrets.

Couldn’t this pedal be setup like an Eclipse, as an external FX Box. But being for guitar it may not be true stereo or even just stereo.

It will do line level, that's for sure.

veddy veddy nice!!

It's stereo line or gtr in and out. I'm buying!

This pedal stole the show for me.

Thank you Eventide!

VEry nice sound, if you look closely in the video alan chaput is using a cioks dc10 with the factor pedals, I read that eventide was having a 3rd party developer make their new powerfactor unit to suppply 3 eventide pedals with power- seems a likely case don't you think?

I think it's Burkey Flatliner power supplies that makes special "Eventide cables" for their units. Since they are independet, you can sum up two outputs for and added extra mA so it will reach 1200 mA or whatever Eventide requires. And you can run 3 Eventides.

CIOKS are a danish company, I've owned their smaller ones, the SIX, but it's still non toroidial units, it's switched current. Me no like switched power supplies. I sold that one. CIOKS have their new Pro AC10 or DC10 units which can run Eventides, but then, if you load them with Eventiden, pretty much nothing else. They're posh and very expensive and what bugs me is their use of non standard RCA PHONO plugs at their end. Drives me silly. But they do work and is the cream of the crop. Gives Voodoo labs a serious run for their money.

Avoid T-rex power supplies, by and large. They're switched, and holds no values of what they promise in their manuals.

Whatever, Eventide Space will be THE Reverb pedal with capital R, that all other reverb pedals will be measured against for years to come. I do think it's too posh and too advanced to have lying around on my pedalboard though. I want it simple. No computers on my board. I want to be able to edit things with my toes/foot and easily see what are dialed in. Christ for guitar, I think it's a bit overkill, but if you do desktop productions as well, it can well find its use.

BTW: CIOKS larger pro units do really have torodial current, and non switched. They're even better than Voodo Labs. Its' just their smaller units that leaves 50 mA and so on that have switched current.

I feel like this is less likely to be used for guitar and will be sitting on or next to mixing consoles a lot.

Seems like real-time knob manipulation will be cool, but.. guitar playing takes two hands.

Or at least the way I do it, it does.

Sounds like a perfect companion for my El Capistan and synths.

For tabletop use, would be nice to be able to change out the 3 pedal knobs. Being made for foot action, they’re usually a bit heavy to engage (or just keep a sledge hammer handy). heh

About Eventide, DigiTech and all other thirsty pedals. It seems that nowadays, when 3rd party power suppliers have covered all 9v 12v, and 18v, it seems the actual pedal manufacturers are just raising the current thing, in milliAmpere instead of voltage, so it should be impossible anyway to run anything on 3rd party power supplies. I mean, Eventide is at 1000 mA each, DigiTech 1400 mA, and not to say all these pedals with tubes in it. Maybe another thread, I know.

But if you should be an Eventide addictive, and run ALL of their four pedals at the same time, you'll be hard pressed to find any unit who can run them all at once. The 9v DC or AC would be nothing to deal with these days, but it's the mA that is crucial now. It seems to be raised with each generation of pedals. Formerly, you could not produce a pedal that run on 9v, it was the voltage you had to rise, in order for it to work. Now, today you can run most DSP chips at 9v but has to raise mA to "dangerous" levels. Its' almost that you could skip the m in mA, and list it in Amperes (A) instead! I do not know of any Power supply that has a total of 4 A, which is required to run all Eventides at once, it seems. Of course, maybe it will, as it goes on and on. But it will turn out too huge, and expensive, and consist of fans and coolers as well.

Hmm, PitchFactor can already be had for under £400 here.. If Space also comes in at under £400, then count me in
