Synthonizer

Synthonizer™ tracks the pitch of the note that you’re playing and generates a synthesized tone at the same pitch. Voice A is an additive synthesizer useful for creating organ or Theremin-style sounds; Voice B is a subtractive synthesizer for creating classic analog-style synth sounds. Note: Tempo cannot be used with this effect.

Note: Synthonizer is Mono In only. Use Input 1. Input 2 is disabled.

Requirements:

All H9 algorithms require an H9 stompbox to function.
To demo or purchase any algorithm, please download the the H9 Control app.

Important: To have access to all algorithms and functionality, please make sure to download the latest version of H9 Control and also update the firmware on your H9(s). Click here for Update Instructions.

Synthonizer Algorithm Controls
Mix [MIX]
wet/dry mixer, 100% is all wet signal.
Voice A/Voice B Mix [VOX-MX]
Controls the ratio of the two synthesized voices A and B.
Waveform Mix [WVE-MX]
Controls the mix of the various added waveforms to control the tone and perceived pitch of voice A.
Octave Blend [OCTVES]
Controls the blend between unison, 1 octave down, and 1 octave up synth voices to control the tone and perceived pitch of voice B.
Attack Time Voice A [ATTK-A]
Controls the attack time for synthesized Voice A.
Attack Time Voice B [ATTK-B]
Controls the attack time for the filter on synthesized voice B.
Reverb Level [VRBLVL]
Sets the reverb level.
Reverb Decay Time [VRBDCY]
Sets the reverb decay time.
Waveshape Voice A [SHAPE]
Selects voice A waveshape – sine [SINE], triangle [TRIANG]) or sawtooth (SAW).
Filter Sweep Voice B [SWEEP]
Controls the sweepable filter on voice B. Values from 0-50 sweep a low-pass filter, values greater than 50 sweep a high pass filter.
Output Level
At 0 the output level is unaffected. Increase the output level of the effect by up to 20 dB or lower by 30 dB.
TEMPO ON / TEMPO OFF
Tempo is turned ON/OFF on the H9 by simultaneously pressing the Right Footswitch and the PRESETS button. With Tempo OFF, tapping can be used to adjust delay parameter values (displayed as milliseconds or Hz). With Tempo ON, tempo is in BPM.
Active
Turn effect on or off..
FLEX
Shifts both voices up one octave..
TAP
If Tempo is ON, the display indicates the current tempo in BPM (30 to 500 BPM) while tapping and the Tap LED will blink at the BPM rate. If Tempo is OFF, the display indicates the parameter value (milliseconds for most algorithms).
