Ripping Distortion and Swirling Modulation

Ready to be swept away? Introducing Riptide, the result of extensive research into the iconic Uni-Vibe and legendary overdrives. Whether you're looking to ride the slow, vibey waves of lush modulation or dive headfirst into the pulsing depths of overdrive, Riptide invites you to play with power and attitude that's unapologetically bold.

Riptide features not one, but two distinct voices for each effect, all delivered in glorious stereo. Plus, you can effortlessly transition from Drive into Vibe or Vibe into Drive. Let ‘er rip.

Two Colors of Drive

Riptide features a balanced distortion with superb dynamics and touch sensitivity. Green is a dynamic, mid-range crunch. Red is a smooth and boosted overdrive.

Two Colors of Vibe

Authentic Shin-ei Uni-Vibe emulation captures the richness and modulation of the original, in stereo! Green is the traditional Uni-Vibe. Red is a deeper, phase-y Vibe.

Features:

Four Effects: 2 Overdrives, 2 Uni-Vibes
Drive ⇆ Vibe at the press of a button
No Deep Dives: 3 Drive Knobs, 3 Vibe Knobs
Five presets at your feet — more available with Eventide Device Manager (EDM) software

Eventide Device Manager PC or Mac application for software updates, system settings and creating/saving presets

The Uni-Vibe done right

Huge uni-vibe nerd here. I have using this category of effect for many years and currently own three different vibes (Fulltone, JHS, EHX) and have owned or tried most of the others. I received the Eventide Riptide from my wife and kids for my birthday this week and let me tell you, it’s amazing. The stereo outputs set this vibe apart from the others. Rich, lush, milky, liquid vibes. The drive portion is brilliant too. Honestly, I think I could gig with just this one pedal and get most of my favorite tones. Still getting to know it, but sonically, this vibe is a home run!

Thank you, Eventide, for getting the Riptide so right!

Riptide is ripping

While I do love the unit as a whole I do have one complaint. I am trying to use my expression pedal to control the speed on the vibrato but even after reading the manual multiple times and reviewing YouTube videos I am still unable to get it to work. I don’t think there is anything wrong with the unit itself I feel like I am not understanding the directions correctly. Please help. Thank you.

Great Addition To My Pedalboard!

The Riptide pedal is very well done. Typical for an Eventide product, it is built like a tank and has robust physical controls. I'm using it as a traditional inline stomp box, but it also has deep MIDI control capability which I might get around to eventually. :)

Sonically, it's just right. The classic Univibe sound is perfect (hello, Bridge Of Sighs!), and the drive portion of the pedal is gritty and strong, and virtually noise-free. Lots of options with simple controls and two voicings each for the Vibe and Drive sections, which are independent. I won't go into all the details as they're well documented on Eventide's web site.

Bottom line: Highly recommended!

Good and easy to use

I chose this reverb because it is easy to use and blends in well with the sound. The audio signal can be positioned very easily and spatially to the front or rear.

Yes Yes Yes :-)

I used the Blackhole in the past and I think why upgrade? It its much better? Yes, I hear the difference and the sound is great. It´s my new to go reverb!

Eventide is the best

Love these creative plugins

I own a bunch of eventide tools now and they're among my favorites for experimentation sessions. Absolutely love them

I use this on every mix now, it’s an insane piece of software. It creates a really distinct warmth.

I'll say right now this is my favourite chorus plugin

The sound you get with MicroPitch is sweet, clear, amusing and immersive.
Easy to use, straightforward parameters and very intuitive.
The user interface is simple in a good way, following the same aesthetics as the blackhole immersive.

This was a smart buy.

“Must Have” effect of the year. I love it!

This is the space I’ve been looking for. It gives the extra room for massive extra spaces and immersion for the fine details all the way around. Amazing tool for your mix. Don't miss micropitch immersive to add the extra motion. Fantastic pair. Love these.
