It builds delays from up to \u003cstrong\u003e64\u003c\/strong\u003e taps whose spacing and levels you control, which is how it produces rhythmic patterns, reverse swells, pad-like volume ramps and glitchy reverbs. For classic delay voices, tape echo and a looper, look at the Eventide TimeFactor; for gravity-bending ambience, the Blackhole; for a single modulated analog-style repeat, the Rose. The H9 Harmonizer also includes an UltraTap algorithm if you prefer one box.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy guitarists choose the UltraTap\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou choose how many taps make up the delay, from \u003cstrong\u003e1\u003c\/strong\u003e to \u003cstrong\u003e64\u003c\/strong\u003e, so the same pedal covers a single repeat, a rhythmic pattern and a dense wash of reflections.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpread sets the spacing of the taps: centered gives even spacing, while turning it either way bunches the taps toward the start or the end of the burst for accelerating and slowing patterns.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTaper shapes the level of the taps across the burst, which is how the pedal makes reverse-style swells and pad-like volume ramps.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlurm smears the taps together with detuning, modulation and diffusion into reverb- and chorus-like textures without a separate reverb pedal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChop applies LFO or envelope-driven gating to the taps, so pads become stutters and sustained chords become sequencer-like parts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA dedicated TAP footswitch sets delay time or tempo, and \u003cstrong\u003e5\u003c\/strong\u003e onboard presets plus up to \u003cstrong\u003e127\u003c\/strong\u003e over MIDI let a subtle doubling and a full ambient collapse coexist in one set.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eControls\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSix knobs each carry a second parameter, reached with the 2nd-function button.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMIX \/ Tone\u003c\/strong\u003e Balances the taps against the dry signal; second function shapes the tone of the taps.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTAPS \/ Slurm\u003c\/strong\u003e Sets the number of taps (\u003cstrong\u003e1–64\u003c\/strong\u003e); second function smears them into reverb- and chorus-like textures.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLENGTH \/ Predelay\u003c\/strong\u003e Sets the time span the taps occupy; second function sets a pre-delay of up to \u003cstrong\u003e1\u003c\/strong\u003e second.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFEEDBACK \/ Chop\u003c\/strong\u003e Recirculates the tap cluster for longer, denser trails; second function selects the Chop modulation (Triangle, Sawtooth, Ramp, Square, Sample and Hold, plus envelope-driven Swell and Trigger ranges).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSPREAD \/ Spd-Rise-Rel\u003c\/strong\u003e Sets the spacing between taps; second function sets the Chop LFO speed or envelope rise and release.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTAPER \/ Out Lvl\u003c\/strong\u003e Shapes the fade-in or fade-out of the taps; second function sets the output level.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eACTIVE footswitch\u003c\/strong\u003e Engages the effect; dual-action, so it works latching or momentary, and it also loads presets.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTAP footswitch\u003c\/strong\u003e Sets delay time in seconds or tempo in BPM; press and hold to switch it to preset select mode (presets \u003cstrong\u003e1–5\u003c\/strong\u003e).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGuitar\/Line switch\u003c\/strong\u003e Rear-panel level matching for guitar, synth, an effects loop or an audio interface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMono\/Stereo switch\u003c\/strong\u003e Tells the TRS input whether to read a mono tip signal or a true stereo tip-and-ring pair.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConnections \u0026amp; Power\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRuns on a \u003cstrong\u003e9V DC\u003c\/strong\u003e center-negative supply through a \u003cstrong\u003e5.5 mm \/ 2.1 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e barrel plug and draws \u003cstrong\u003e300 mA\u003c\/strong\u003e, so it needs an isolated output rated \u003cstrong\u003e300 mA\u003c\/strong\u003e or more rather than a shared daisy chain.
