I still have a 3000 with several program ROMs and the sampler.

I did use it once to take a tempo wrinkle out of the intro of a Tom Larsen
tune we had recorded. The variation really didn't bother me until days after
the session. I unwrinkled it manually after may tries and then we edited the
new intro on to the song during mastering.
Most of the algorithms and many parameters made this sort of a "because we

It would be nice to hear what a true H3000 power user was able to do.
Brian Eno uses Eventides extensively (both as artist and record
producer), as do David Evans ("The Edge" - U2) and Daniel Lanois.

John Petrucci has two Eventides in his rack.
Can't find the info again, but I'm sure Lita Ford used Eventide quite
extensively on the semi-acoustic parts in Close My eyes Forever:
