H9 Presets
Description
Glide down + tremolo.
Description
This GlidingDotted8th preset is a slightly tamer variation on the RubberBandGlitch settings above. A perfect 4th quickly slides down to Unison, while the 5th glides upwards to an octave.
The pitch shifts are spread against dotted 1/8 and 1/4 note delays. I added a little Feedback here, but I usually program that parameter in the expression pedal for a range of 0 to 100.
Description
Random glitch effects. Expression pedal mapped to DYNAMICS and LENGTH.
Description
Glitchy groove.
Description
Subtly detuned delays. Expression pedal controls delay times.
Description
The Hairy Eyeball is a 3-in-1 overdrive (a low gain boost designed to distort the next thing in you signal chain) with a TS808, a Klone, and a tweedish/mid-focused thing. An expression pedal and a hotswitch gets you all three. I'm driving this into a Kingsley Page (and then into a slapback delay), but you could hit any other drive or the front of an amp. The H9 "Trim" control adds a little crunch (I didn't know that until today) just like you'd use a Klon or an 808. Naturally, you can make other presets by reconfiguring the three parts and, as always, adjust to taste. 9/16/2022
Description
The Hairy Eyeball has now evolved into a set of three low gain overdrives (designed to distort the next thing in you signal chain). The three voices are a TS808, a Klone, and a mid-focused H9 factory preset called “Balls”. An expression pedal allows you to adjust the mid hump in each until you find the best setting for you. You could then eliminate the range if you’d like. The “TRIM” knob is a gain knob with a limited range and a hotswitch uses that knob to provide a modest crunch-boost option. The TREBLE and BASS knobs basically operate as expected. The default TRIM setting adds a volume boost so I have nullified that by reducing the output level. These presets are driving my Kingsley Page, Page TS, and Page J out of this world! Naturally, you could hit any other drive pedal or the front of an amp. As always, adjust to taste. 9/19/2022

I've now added a fourth Hairy Eyeball low gain overdrive (designed to distort the next thing in you signal chain) preset for a Treble Booster. This is more accurately described as Treble Booster inspired because I tailored it to suit my ear (ironically, by removing treble). The other three voices are a TS808, a Klone, and a mid-focused H9 factory preset called “Balls”. An expression pedal allows you to adjust the mid hump in each until you find the best setting for you. You could then eliminate the range if you’d like. The “TRIM” knob is a gain knob with a limited range and a hotswitch uses that knob to provide a modest crunch-boost option. The TREBLE and BASS knobs basically operate as expected. The default TRIM setting adds a volume boost so I have nullified that by reducing the output level. These presets are driving my Kingsley Page, Page TS, Harlot, and Page J out of this world! Naturally, you could hit any other drive pedal or the front of an amp. As always, adjust to taste. 9/26/2022

BlueWingedTiger just posted an excellent Morley Power Wah preset. I've simply repackaged it as a half cocked wah for those interested in one. Use an expression pedal to find the right amount of nasal for you and off you go. Use with your favorite overdrive/distortion and, as always, adjust to taste. Again, attribution of all creative effort here goes to BlueWingedTiger. 9/26/2022
Description
This H9 preset was inspired by the famous Andy Timmons reverbesque delay in Robert Keeley's excellent Halo pedal. It is an approximation, not a recreation. That, in part, is because the original has a "gallop" that I don't think can be captured in UltraTap. Hopefully, it is close enough to cure your Halo gas. Thanks to YouTuber ciclosonico (whose channel is loaded with creative H9 snippets) for providing valuable improvements over a posted prior version. 9/7/2022

This H9 preset was inspired by the first preset on Robert Keeley's excellent Halo pedal (the famous Andy Timmons reverbesque delay sound). This merely an approximation of that preset, not a recreation. Hopefully, it is close enough to cure your Halo gas. 8/30/2022
