Introduction
Congratulations on choosing an Eventide Harmonizer brand effects processor. For years we’ve
dreamed of putting our rack mount effects in the hands of performing musicians and, in
particular, at the feet of guitar players. PitchFactor is the latest realization of that dream;
bringing true studio-quality audio, massive processing power, world-class effects, and
unmatched flexibility to your live sound.
A Few Words of Advice
Factor pedals pack an unprecedented degree of processing and flexibility into a small
package. Our goal in creating the Factor family was to give you the power to transform your
sound. From the start, we recognized that the key to realizing this goal was to give you the
flexibility to bend and twist this power in the service of your creativity.
We’ve worked hard to make PitchFactor easy to use. We’ve done our best to design an
intuitive User Interface to manage and control the awesome power and flexibility packed into
every Factor Effects processor. We hope that you will take the time to master it.
We know that you’re eager to get going and hope that you’ll read this User Guide. However,
if you read nothing else, please read The Basics.
