SECTION 1
- SETUP
First set your Meris pedal EXP jack to “MIDI” using the pedal’s global configuration mode. Refer to your particular pedals
quick start guide for specifics, but generally you need to first hold the Alt switch on power up for 3 seconds, all of the front panel
LEDs will blink 3 times. Then, using the appropriate knob (bottom row right most knob), select the “MIDI” mode (twist the knob
all the way clockwise).
After configuring your Meris pedal for MIDI, next select the MIDI channel you would like for each of your pedals. Chan-
nels 1-16 are available, as well as OMNI (which reacts to messages on any channel).
For individualized control of each pedal, we
recommend setting each pedal to a different channel.
Use the bottom row middle knob of your Meris pedal to select the MIDI
channel while in global configuration mode.

CONFIGURATION MODE
SUPER-MODULATED
DELAY
(Press to Select Phaser)
Slow:
Stereo Barberpole phaser with fixed speed of 0.1 Hz
Sync:
Stereo Barberpole phaser with speed linked to a
quarter note of the delay time.
Slow + Sync:
Stereo Barberpole phaser with speed
linked to a whole note of the delay time.
Hold to access Alt Functions:
Alt Functions are only accessible when this button is held.
Tap:
Sets the time for the delay and the synchronized phaser
Alt Function: Dotted Eighth Note
Changes current tempo from quarter notes to dotted eighth notes
Hold Tap:
to engage Half Speed Delay
Time:
Sets the time for the delay and the synchronized phaser
Alt Function: Early Modulation
Triangle waveform modulation of the early delay taps.
Ranges from gentle modulation, to FM, to pitch effects
Feedback:
Sets the feedback amount
Alt Function: Feedback Filter
Controls filter in the feedback path. Set to noon for no
filtering, set towards minimum for a darker filter, set towards maximum for a brighter filter
Mix:
Adjusts the balance between Dry and Wet signals
Alt Function: Delay Level
Sets the gain of the Wet signal.
Ranges from 0dB to -12dB.
Bypass:
Disables processing and passes
the input thru to the output
Alt Function: Dynamic Flange r Feedback
Adds negative feedback to the Dynamic Flanger
HOLD

LED switch on power up (power up takes 3
secs); all of the front panels LEDs will blink 3 times
*With
DRY MUTED
, the pedal delivers wet
only in active mode; in bypass, the entire pedal is muted.
(L)
LED indicates MONO
(R)

INPUT MODE:
Dynamics:
Sets the intensity/depth of the Dynamic Flanger.
Flanger is off at minimum.
Alt Function: Dynamic Flanger Speed
Sets the attack time for
the envelope or speed of LFO based on Dynamic Flanger Mode
Multiply:
Sets the number of delay taps added to the output
Alt Function: Late Modulation
Triangle waveform modulation of the later delay taps.
Ranges from gentle modulation, to FM, to pitch effects
Dimension:
Sets the dimension amount. Dimension smears and sustains the reflections at each delay tap
Alt Function: Dynamic Flanger Mode
Set to minimum for Envelope Down, set to noon for Envelope Up, and set to maximum for LFO
