A Brief History of UltraTap
It all started in 1982 with the world’s first rack mount programmable audio processor, the Eventide SP2016, where a flexible 64 tap delay debuted as part of its Factory Program suite.
By the late 80’s UltraTap had migrated to the legendary H3000 Harmonizer® effects processor and then to the DSP4000 and H8000.
Thanks to advances in technology, we were able to include UltraTap in a portable compact form factor, the H9 Harmonizer® stompbox. And now UltraTap has come back to the studio via your DAW and FOH environment, where it all began 35 years ago!
Ultra Responsive
Think of UltraTap as the mother of all Echoplexes and you won’t be too far off. That’s basically how it operates but with the flexibility to add as many ‘tape-heads’ as you want and expressively control their positions and levels.
Designed for real-time manipulation, UltraTap features The Ribbon, an innovative control which allows you to program two settings for any combination of the controls and seamlessly transition between them.
The programmable HotSwitch allows you to instantly jump to an alternate setting at the push of a button. This combination of controls is intended to bring you as close as possible to the experience of tweaking real hardware.
“UltraTap” has already found a home in many professional studios and is used by leading artists including:
- Joel Hamilton – Tom Waits, The Black Keys
- Steven Williams – Sting, The Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton
- Ed Pettersen – Richard Thompson, Freedy Johnston, Candi Staton, Wadada Leo Smith, Giuseppi Logan, Henry Kaiser
- Matt Lange – Deadmau5, BT
- Siegfried Meier – Kittie, Face To Face, DMX, Woods of Ypres, Adam Wendler

“Eventide UltraTap plug-in - A unique, versatile and powerful plugin for sound design and creative mixing, UltraTap brings Eventide’s classic effect to the DAW in style, and at a very fair price.”

“UltraTap is a surprisingly deep sound manipulation tool. Sure, you could use it as a normal (though high-quality) multi-tap delay but that would be selling its many other abilities short.”

“If you’re looking for a new effects processor that breaks new ground then there’s a very good chance that you’ll enjoy UltraTap. It’s hard for plug-ins to bring something genuinely new these days, but Eventide has done it once again.”

“The result is a very clean and modern sounding effect, which can get glitchy and very weird if you want it to.”

“UltraTap is much more than a multi-tap delay-line effect. It’s a soundscape tool, capable of producing huge spaces, glitchy gated delays, crescendoing volume swells, comb filtering, modulation, and more.”
Logic Pro Expert

“Based on the fact that this tool does what it needs to so perfectly, it’s a rare full marks! This is a unique enough take on a multi-tap delay at just the right price break to make it a must have for mixers and sound designers who desire this kind of effect. It’s definitely one we’ll be using a lot.”

“When you need to go beyond what your DAW's own delay plug-ins can provide, a specialised model like Eventide's UltraTap can be just the ticket. Even though most DAWs already include delay plug-ins, playing around with effects like UltraTap is a great way to venture out of your comfort zone (when it comes to delay fx), nudging you in directions you might not have gone otherwise.”

"UltraTap is a fun creative tool both for musical applications and for more general sound-design work. For music it can produce high-quality conventional echoes or fake double-track sounds, lush modulated delays, vocal thickening, rapid delay bursts that sound rather like gated reverb and a few more overtly modulated and rhythmic sounds. The more you play with the deceptively small number of controls, the more sounds you’ll find you can coax out of UltraTap, so if you feel your delay treatments are getting into a bit of a rut, take a closer look."
