Meris Company Background
Meris launched in Los Angeles in 2015, founded by ex-Strymon engineers focused on high-resolution DSP in compact formats. Their early releases like the Ottobit Jr. established a reputation for innovative digital effects with analog warmth.
Mercury7 to MercuryX Evolution
The original Mercury7 reverb arrived in 2016 with seven algorithms and basic controls. The MercuryX, released in 2023, expands this with additional algorithms, dual engines in X-Mode, and a larger display while retaining the same core voicing.
Notable Users
Players such as Tycho, Battles, and members of the electronic-ambient scene have integrated Meris pedals into both live rigs and studio setups for their clarity and modulation depth.
