Born from a rib of Strymon, LA pedal manufacturer Meris has been getting a lot of traction in the last year or so with imaginative stompbox designs (we wrote a profile about them here), and we are thrilled to find out that they have launched a brand new pedal called Enzo.
Enzo is an intuituve multi-voice synth pedal that tracks your guitar’s notes.
Here are the latest videos of the Meris Enzo!
Knobs shot these videos of Enzo:
The builder lent the first unit of it to the guys at Pedals and Effects and we are reposting it in our blog below, check it out! More videos below.
A multi-voice synthesizer that will track your guitar for tight monosynth leads, complex chord polyphony, or multi-note sequenced arpeggiation. All without any special pickup installation. Just put it on your board and discover your own reality.
The Enzo isn’t limited to guitar; use it on any instrument whether drum machine, vocals or other synths. Completely transform your input signal and re-synthesize. Use the full synth palette of multimode analog style synth filters, ring modulation, envelopes and much much more to drive punchy, thick synth textures. Or, explore an altered state of your pure instrument signal by transforming it with pitch, time and modulation effects. Plug in to a revelation generator.
