Meris Polymoon
Meris · pedal
The Meris Polymoon is a super-modulated delay pedal built around a 1200ms real-time selectable multi-tap delay line paired with 6 custom-tuned LFOs offering adjustable waveforms, capable of anything from subtle wobble to aggressive, synth-like pitch-shifting effects on the repeats. It adds an adjustable Tilt EQ filter in the delay feedback path, a tempo-syncable stereo Barberpole Phaser, a multimode stereo Dynamic Flanger with feedback, a unique feedback topology, a Dimension control for smearing reflections, and selectable quarter or dotted-eighth tap tempo, all running through a premium 24-bit/32-bit floating point signal path with stereo I/O.
What stands out
“The built-in Barberpole Phaser and Dynamic Flanger add further modulation layers rarely combined with delay in a single pedal”
— from the community notes
“Combining a Barberpole Phaser and Dynamic Flanger alongside the core delay is a substantial feature set, effectively three modulation effects layered into one delay pedal”
— from the reviews
“Stereo input and output with a premium 24-bit/32-bit signal path ensures the complex modulation stays clean and detailed”
— from the reviews
“a tempo-syncable stereo barberpole phaser”
— from the listing
“Standout strength is the 6-LFO modulation system, giving genuinely wide-ranging pitch-shift character from subtle chorus-like wobble to extreme, disorienting pitch modulation”
