Eventide about the v3 upgrade

ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, January 13, 2011 — Responding to requests from customers the world over, Eventide today announced the posting of V3 software for TimeFactor, ModFactor and PitchFactor stompboxes for public beta. Two significant features have been added to all three stompboxes: the ability to name presets, and the ability to adjust the output level from -20dB to +4dB in 1dB increments on each preset in order to facilitate seamless gain matching. Additional MIDI control refinements have also been added.

Other enhancements to TimeFactor include the addition of increased saturation to the Tape Echo algorithm. Also added is the ability to increase modulation speed and depth in the Vintage Delay algorithm resulting in more extensive modulation capability and control. Also Tap Tempo responsiveness has been improved.
