        In some scenarios, I would be wanting to run 16 algorithms seperately. so they don’t bleed into each other. As these algorithms are predominately stereo, I would look to route 32 MADI channels in pairs (NOT stereo linking BTW!) to 16 algorithms. So, in each FX chain, I would need to have 4 algorithms in parallel, and routed to a total of 2 channels per algo, i.e: 8 channels of MADI. Is there a MADI template I can download for this?

        Also, are Eventide working on an upgrade to allow the UI to access more than 4 algorithms per FX chain?

          There are many Factory FX Chain templates that can be found in the 1600 bank as seen below. The 1609 template I have highlighted gives you 4 algorithms in parallel, though you will need to route the hardware outputs of your FX Chain for your workflow and setup.

          More algorithms per FX Chain is not a simple UI update. The H9000 uses 4x quad core ARM DSP processors. There are 4 algorithms per chain because there are 4 cores per DSP processor; each algorithm runs on a core.

          Allowing more algorithms per FX Chain is not a simple task, thought it may be something we can add in a future update. I cannot provide any guarantees or timeline for this.

          The Gen2 DSP processors allow for more powerful algorithms to be run per core, and our focus for upcoming releases is more powerful algorithms that take advantage of the new processors.

            Ah, thanks.

            is there also the option to copy an algorithm from within one chain to another as appointed to having to drag it from the list of algorithms on the left column or import from an external drive? I may need the same algorithm with the same custom settings in two different fx chains for example.

              You’re welcome.

              There is no copy algorithm function.

              The easiest way to do this is to first save your algorithm as a preset which will allow you to save your custom settings, then use the browser menu to drag that algorithm preset into a new FX Chain.

                It only allows me to save to my Mac. Must be doing something wrong.

                  Save or Save as will save it to your computer.

                  Save to H9000 will save it to the H9000 memory, and then your preset will show up in Emote’s browser window.

                      There is no copy algorithm function.

                      This is very true, and ridiculous. I’ve been waiting for this alongside many other basic features since 2019.

                      I asked for this simple copy/ paste function back in 2020. I’m so disappointed that Eventide has been unable to add even this simple feature to their flagship effects processor.

                      ”The Gen2 DSP processors allow for more powerful algorithms to be run per core, and our focus for upcoming releases is more powerful algorithms that take advantage of the new processors.”

                      ”Allowing more algorithms per FX Chain is not a simple task, thought it may be something we can add in a future update. I cannot provide any guarantees or timeline for this.”

                      UI and feature improvements should really take priority at this point in updating the H9000. Even over new algorithms. H9000 has now even been upgraded with the gen2 processors. Why are you still restricting its potential (even the gen1 potential) with these user interface limitations? You’ve said it yourself back in 2019. “In the nearer term, we are planning to add the ability to connect between DSPs in the next release, so you’ll be able to connect up to 16 effects without tying up analog IO and patchbay connections. This is supported natively in the system, but we don’t have a UI for it just yet.”
                      And “So, I think that ideally, we’d figure out a way to extend the current model so you could have 8 algorithms in an FX chain instead of 4, without restrictions on how they are laid out.”
                      “Sorry but this won’t be something that will make it to the next H9k firmware release. It is still something that is being discussed and a feature that we’d like to include in a future release. Thanks for your patience. ”

                      Eventide has been resting on the H9000’s laurels as their ’flagship’ processor, while the actual workflow remains outdated. A product this expensive needs features that justify its price tag. You sold us the H9000 with promises of updated features, yet you’ve mostly just added a few algorithms. What was promised in 2019 is still not here — not even after we bought the costly Gen2 upgrade.
                      It’s not the hardware that’s lacking, but the basic UI and firmware. Please give us the needed UI upgrade already!
