Meris Reveals the Enzo X
video upload by Meris
NEW: Meris Enzo X Overview (Official) 4k
video upload by Meris
"UNVEIL THE UNIVERSE WITHIN
Enzo X is a supernova expansion from the original Enzo into the highest quality and most flexible polyphonic synthesizer ever created in a pedal format (with no pickup installation required). All of our passion for pro audio has made it into both the algorithms and hardware performance of this pedal. Enzo X combines 5 synth modes and incorporates those into a modular system UI/architecture from both award winning LVX and MercuryX pedals. Including: 6 polyphonic voices (each voice includes a set of 2 oscillators, filter, filter envelope, amplifier envelope) + 3 reverbs are adapted from Mercury X (Prism algorithm) + 5 Drives (including Bitcrush) + full stereo 2.5 second Delay + 5 modulation types. To make this complex system immediately intuitive to navigate, we again leveraged the simple and easy to use UI first developed for LVX. Exploring the factory presets (and pressing the HOLD MODIFIER) will be your gateway into experiencing the power and flexibility within this instrument. As you discover all of the new ways to create with Enzo X, your own sonic visions will be unveiled.
