Electro-Harmonix C9 Organ Machine Guitar Effect Pedal: Classic Organ and Electric Piano Sounds for Guitarists
The Electro-Harmonix C9 Organ Machine Guitar Effect Pedal offers guitarists a unique opportunity to explore iconic organ and electric piano tones without ever having to pick up an organ. If you’re a fan of the Electro-Harmonix B9, the C9 is a natural next step, expanding your sonic capabilities with new, meticulously crafted presets. Whether you're after the classic organ tones of the 60s and 70s, or you want to experiment with vintage electronic keyboard sounds, the C9 provides the tools to create everything from vintage organ classics to progressive, ambient textures. This pedal is an essential piece for guitarists looking to experiment with new sounds while preserving the familiarity and ease of their instrument.

Nine Unique Organ Settings for Versatile Sound Creation
The Electro-Harmonix C9 Organ Machine pedal is packed with nine distinct presets that cover a wide range of organ and keyboard tones. Each preset is designed to emulate a specific iconic sound, from the electric organ tones of The Doors to the epic, harmonic extravagance of Led Zeppelin. The pedal offers a variety of sounds such as the Farfisa-style Compact setting, the Mellotron MKII flute sound, the Lord Purple setting for sludge-heavy tones, and the Prog setting for fat, layered lines. Whether you want to mimic the Beatles' organ sound at Apple Studios or capture the iconic 1960s Clavioline sound heard in “Telstar,” the C9 has you covered with all these and more.

Rotary Speaker Emulation and Percussive Control
Each of the tonewheel organ settings in the C9 comes with a rotary speaker emulation effect, which allows you to control the speed of the rotary speaker sound for that authentic organ vibe. This adds an extra dimension to your playing, giving your tones the swirling, rotating effect that is characteristic of traditional organs. In addition, the C9 includes separate control over the key click and percussion of each sound, allowing you to add more character and authenticity to your tone. The ability to manipulate these elements gives you complete control over how your organ-like sounds interact with your guitar, allowing for a variety of expressive options.

Wet/Dry Mixing for Custom Sound Integration
The Electro-Harmonix C9 Organ Machine pedal offers the option to blend your dry guitar tone with the processed organ effect. The Dry and Organ knobs allow you to dial in the perfect balance between your unaffected signal and the organ emulation. Whether you want to preserve some of your guitar’s original tone or fully immerse yourself in the organ sounds, this feature lets you find the ideal mix. Additionally, with dual outputs, you can send your wet and dry signals to separate amps for a more complex, stereo sound, or you can run both signals through a single amp to create a more streamlined setup.

Combine with the B9 for an Even Larger Sonic Palette
If you already own the Electro-Harmonix B9, the C9 is the perfect complement. Both pedals feature their own unique presets, but by using them together, you unlock a full range of diverse organ and keyboard sounds. The C9 and B9 can be connected via a channel selector, allowing you to send each pedal's signal to separate amps or combine them for a massive stereo spread. This setup gives you an expanded array of tonal options and lets you experiment with different combinations of sounds for a more immersive performance or recording experience.
