    Working with the Harmonizer® part 3 3.1 Signal flow of the H910 Single The original H910 Harmonizer® had additional inputs and outputs which would have traditionally been attached to external studio gear to work.

    In many DAWs there is an additional generic preset bar that saves DAW-specific presets to a separate location. We recommend saving your presets using the Eventide preset bar to ensure that your presets will be accessible from any DAW. You can also create sub-folders inside the preset folders, if you wish.
