Meris Polymoon
FROM THE MINDS OF MERIS
Communicate with your Dream State.
The Polymoon is everything we wanted in a delay. "Before he goes into the water, a diver cannot know what he will bring back." - Max Ernst.
UNLOCK YOUR DREAM STATE
Brain Tides
Tidal soundscapes and super-modulated repeat trails will lead to new inspiration with every note you play. Guitar, synthesizer or any instrument will take on new shapes and forms with the Polymoon's massive algorithmic flow.

Controls - Meris Polymoon
- 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. For auto-scaling, set to min.
- 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 delay tap reflections
- Alt Function: Dynamic Flanger Mode
- Set to minimum for Envelope Down, set to noon for Envelope Up, and set to maximum for LFO
- Dynamics
- Sets the intensity/depth of the Dynamic Flanger. Flanger is off at minimum
- Alt Function: Dynamic Flanger Speed
- Sets the envelope attack time or LFO speed based on the Dynamic Flanger Mode
- Tap
- Sets the time for the delay and the synchronized phaser
- Alt Function: Dotted Eighth Note
- Changes current tempo from 1/4 notes to dotted 1/8 notes
- Hold Tap: to engage Half Speed Delay
- Hold to access Alt Functions
- Alt Functions are only accessible when this button is held
- Bypass
- Disables processing and passes the input through to the output
- Alt Function: Dynamic Flanger Feedback
- Adds negative feedback to the Dynamic Flanger
- 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
