Eventide launched Anthology '27 on 10 November 2026, the new edition of its flagship plug-in collection and the first of what Eventide is turning into an annual series. It gathers 38 plug-ins, seven of them new to the bundle: SplitEQ 2, Temperance Pro, Temperance Lite, Blackhole Immersive, MicroPitch Immersive, DeBoom and Sheen Machine. The perpetual licence lists at $1,299 and launches at $649 as a holiday special, the same price at Plugin Boutique, where the discount runs until 3 January 2027.
At a glance: 38 Eventide plug-ins across split-processing EQ, immersive, modal reverb, classic hardware emulations, creative effects and channel-strip utilities; AAX, AU and VST3 on macOS 10.14+ (Intel and Apple Silicon), AAX and VST3 on Windows 10+; iLok account, no dongle. $649 perpetual (from $1,299), or $299 a year / $29.99 a month by subscription. The deepest Eventide collection yet, at the lowest entry price it has had.
What is Eventide Anthology '27?
Anthology has been Eventide's everything-bundle for years; the previous edition was Anthology XII. Anthology '27 replaces it and absorbs the subscription too: Eventide's Ensemble subscription is now simply Anthology, so the same 38 plug-ins are available to buy outright or rent.
What you get spans five decades of the company's work. The classic emulations include the H3000 Factory Mk II, H910 and H949 Harmonizers (each in single and dual versions), the SP2016 Reverb, Omnipressor and Instant Phaser and Flanger. The creative side covers Blackhole, ShimmerVerb, MangledVerb, Crystals, MicroPitch, UltraTap, TriceraChorus, Octavox, Quadravox, CrushStation, Rotary, Spring, Tverb, UltraReverb and Undulator. The newer tools built on Eventide's patented Structural Split technology, which separates the transient part of a sound from its tonal part, are where the 2027 edition puts its weight.
What's new in Anthology '27
SplitEQ 2
The successor to SplitEQ applies Structural Split to a full EQ and dynamics processor: transient and tonal components get independent EQ and dynamics, with six dynamic bands, Global Dynamics and a masking visualisation for spotting where competing tracks collide. It is the one addition still to come, marked as coming soon, and arrives in the bundle when it ships. If you already use Physion Mk II to separate attack from body, SplitEQ 2 is that idea as a mix EQ.
Temperance Pro and Temperance Lite
Temperance is Eventide's modal reverb: rather than a neutral room, it shapes the reverb around musical notes. Temperance Pro offers 29 modal spaces and three modes. Manual lets you choose notes to emphasise or suppress, Sequence steps through note sets, and MIDI lets you play the reverb's tuning from a keyboard, so a pad's tail follows the chord changes. Temperance Lite strips that to three modal spaces and a Temper knob that pushes selected notes up or down. On a vocal or piano, it is the difference between a reverb that sits around the song and one that sounds tuned to it.
Blackhole Immersive and MicroPitch Immersive
Two of Eventide's best-known effects go multichannel. Blackhole Immersive runs the huge Blackhole algorithm in mono, stereo, surround and immersive formats, with separate EQ and Crossfeed for front, top and rear channels. MicroPitch Immersive spreads Eventide's detuned delay across up to 16 channels with modulation, EQ and Crossfeed. Both matter most to Dolby Atmos mixers, but they work in stereo too.
DeBoom and Sheen Machine
Two one-knob Structural Split tools solve the commonest EQ problems without the usual side effects. DeBoom reduces low-end boom and resonance while leaving the transient untouched, so a kick or floor tom loses mud but keeps its punch. Sheen Machine adds high-end air to vocals, synths and other sources without sharpening the attack, the classic trap of a broad top-end boost. Both are $49 crossgrades on their own for existing Anthology XII, SplitEQ and Physion owners at Plugin Boutique, so having them inside the bundle is part of its value.

Anthology '27 vs FabFilter Total Bundle vs Soundtoys 5.5
| Eventide Anthology '27 | FabFilter Total Bundle | Soundtoys 5.5 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price | $649 (from $1,299) | $1,069 | $599 |
| Plug-ins | 38 | 14 | 23 |
| Strength | Reverb, pitch, modulation, transient/tonal EQ | Surgical mixing and mastering | Analogue colour, saturation and delay |
| Subscription option | Yes, $29.99 a month | No | No |
| Pick it if | You want space, pitch and character tools in one licence | You want precise, transparent mix tools | You want saturation and vibe |
Which to pick: these bundles overlap less than their prices suggest. FabFilter is the clinical mixing toolkit, Soundtoys the colour box, and Eventide owns reverb, pitch shifting and modulation, with the Structural Split tools as a fresh angle on EQ. At $649, Anthology '27 is cheaper than FabFilter's bundle and barely above Soundtoys' with far more plug-ins.

Anthology '27 or individual Eventide plug-ins?
Eventide's Black Friday sale at Plugin Boutique runs separately until 1 December, and some single titles are cheap enough to make the bundle worth pricing out first.
| Buy individually (Plugin Boutique, to 1 Dec) | Price |
|---|---|
| Blackhole | $49 |
| H3000 Factory Mk II | $75 |
| SP2016 Reverb | $49 |
| Omnipressor | $49 |
| Blackhole Immersive | $99 |
| Five plug-ins | $321 |
| Anthology '27, all 38 | $649 |
If those five are all you want, buy them singly. Add the Temperance, Physion, MicroPitch and Harmonizer families and the bundle wins quickly: the extra $328 buys 33 more plug-ins.
Who Anthology '27 is for
Buy it if you mix and want Eventide's reverbs, Harmonizers and modulation in one place; if you work in Dolby Atmos and need immersive versions of Blackhole and MicroPitch; or if you already own a handful of Eventide plug-ins and keep reaching for more.
Skip it if you only need one or two Eventide classics, since the individual Black Friday prices are lower. If you need transparent mastering tools such as a limiter and linear-phase EQ, our best mastering plugins guide covers better-suited options. And if you prefer not to commit $649, the $29.99 monthly plan is the low-risk way in.
How much does Anthology '27 cost?
- Perpetual licence: $649 holiday special, from $1,299, direct from Eventide's Anthology '27 page.
- $649 at Plugin Boutique, 50% off until 3 January 2027.
- Subscription: $299 a year or $29.99 a month, both including future releases.
- Upgrades: Eventide offers upgrade pricing to existing owners through its Anthology '27 page.
Our Anthology '27 plugin page tracks the price.
Price-timing note: the $649 launch price is half the $1,299 list price and runs at Plugin Boutique until 3 January, so there is no need to rush before Black Friday. The individual Eventide deals end sooner, on 1 December, so buy single titles first if that is your plan.

38, including seven new to the collection: SplitEQ 2, Temperance Pro, Temperance Lite, Blackhole Immersive, MicroPitch Immersive, DeBoom and Sheen Machine.
How much is Anthology '27?
$649 for a perpetual licence during the holiday special, down from $1,299, at Eventide and Plugin Boutique until 3 January 2027. The subscription is $299 a year or $29.99 a month.

macOS 10.14 or later on Intel or Apple Silicon (AAX, AU, VST3), or Windows 10 or later on an x64 CPU with SSE 4.2 (AAX, VST3). An iLok account is required, but no dongle.
Anthology '27 vs FabFilter Total Bundle?
Anthology '27 ($649, 38 plug-ins) is strongest on reverb, pitch, modulation and transient/tonal EQ. FabFilter Total Bundle ($1,069, 14 plug-ins) is the more precise mixing and mastering set. Many engineers own both.
Verdict
Anthology '27 is the most complete Eventide collection yet and, at $649, the best-value way into it. The Temperance modal reverbs and the one-knob DeBoom and Sheen Machine are genuinely useful additions, the immersive Blackhole and MicroPitch future-proof the bundle for Atmos work, and the classics are as essential as ever. SplitEQ 2 is still to arrive, and if you only want a couple of the famous names, single Black Friday prices are cheaper. For anyone who wants Eventide's sound across a whole mix, this is the version to buy.
