"I used the effects loop of a TC 2290 that bypassed the harmonizer’s return, but not the send to it. Then when I wanted to sound backwards, I could kick the effect in instantly," says Henry Kaiser, in this article, by Premier Guitar.

"He was using an MXR Pitch Transposer rackmount harmonizer to do momentary pitch shifting with the unit’s footswitch. I had one of those MXR units, and I immediately adopted Glenn’s innovation for my own use."

"Eventide brought out the Eclipse harmonizer in 2002, and I used that model for this effect for many years…" says Henry Kaiser, in this article, by Premier Guitar.

"This led me to taking a 160X DBX compressor that was designed for the studio and sticking it into the effects loop of my old transistor Acoustic 114 amp that I was using back in 1977."

"I think it was one of the very first amps with an effects loop, and I probably became one of the first players to use studio gear in that loop, such as the DBX compressor and a Lexicon Prime Time digital delay."

"After a few years with that clunky MXR, I gave up on it and used a modified ADA PitchTraq to provide the same effect for me."

"As soon as I got an Eventide H-3000 harmonizer, back in the ’80s, I realized that its reverse shift algorithm would let me create this effect in live performances."
