With the H910 the word 'glitch' entered the pro audio lexicon. The H910 blazed a distinct sonic trail and was used by Frank Zappa and Jimmy Page in their live guitar rigs, and was used on such seminal works as David Bowie's Young American.

The H949 Harmonizer took things a bit further with the addition of a randomizer, flanger, and added a repeat feature which freezes the audio in the buffer. The H949 also advanced the state-of-the-pitch-changing-art by featuring an advanced de-glitching algorithm.
