The Next Craze In DESK STOMP??? 

Really glad to have you back. You’ve really been an inspiration to me musically.

WOW, that is STUNNING!!! Good to see a video from you waiting for me this morning.

I really enjoyed this demo/review... thank you very much sir! Loving my lvx

Great to see you up and about... my favorite Channel.

SO glad to be notified this morning about this vlog - Samplists around the world always look forward to hearing from you!

Glad to have you back Christan.

The regular videos are back! And that ethereal sound is amazing!

Nice demo! This pedal brought more to the table than i thought it would.

Good to have you back captain. 👍

Wonderful! Glad you are back!

Your a smart man, glad to see your well mate.

Sounds really beautiful

Great to have you back

The guitar community has been going nuts for these. Pretty epic sounds!

Always an inspiration, Christian. Keep rolling!

This thing sounds amazing!

That preset #66 at 6:09 sounds awesome! I need a plugin version of this! Haha. Great showcase of what this thing can do!

Sounds amazing. Will have to look into that one

Thank you Christian for your channel and for your BBCSO, ALBION and ABBEY ROAD orchestral libraries! I will be using them for my Gospel music arrangements and film scoring projects.

Sounds incredible!! Hoping to try one with my Pedal Steel. Top demo as always Christian.

Good to see you on here again, Christian. The LVX sounds great. I agree with you that this seems like a fun and inspiring live playing tool.

Your rhodes mk8 sounds so impressive :) Nice colour aswell😍

Excellent, Christian!!

That Rhodes sounds gorgeous, the Meris pairs really well

I just love this pedal! But I would never get anything else done just playing around with this on my bass, guitar, keys, violin and banjo 😂😂😂😂 nice demo Christian and so good to have you back. Much love Gary

Looking forward to future uploads!

So glad to have you back making videos! My wife and I recently visited Edinburgh and fell in love. Don't suppose you need a video game artist and hobbyist microtonal composer on your team so we have an excuse to move? 😉

That sounds amazing! Might need to pick one of those up for my DJ rig. Also, the Midiverb II rules (if you're going for that 80s sound), which also rules (sometimes). :)

Good to see you back Christian 🎉

Absolutely lovely 😍

The LVX and the Rhodes are a lovely combo.

I know this video is about the box but I can’t stop admiring the Rhodes….I mean look at her….she’s so fine!

Good God, how good dose that Rhodes sounds! Spitfire's new Rhodes plugin incoming!

That's done it. Time to get the pedals out again!

This is such a geek-out. Love it.

Wow never heard of this pedal but it sounds beautiful combined with the Rhodes

Wow, that is something else.

Reminds me of endless hours spent on building Guitar-pedal-boards of madness.. PC is easier, but using direkt hardware has a more exploring spontanious jaming feel to it. The limits of the hardware kinda shape the outcome and inspire all in one. Thx for the Vid. Rock on! :)

That’s it the debate is over I’m getting one

I’d rather have your presence in our presence as opposed to a stomp box…and it’s a close call..welcome back 👍🦄🎩✨

Very interesting video. Just saw the videos released today on the new Eventide Harmonizer H90, and it really seemed to have some similarities. Have you seen that one, yet, and if so, any thoughts on how they do or don't compare?

Looks like this is everything anyone will ever need and now with screens. We’re seeing the stomp box evolve right before our eyes, but when will they actually make the jump to a proper desk top unit and make those heavy clicky switches more digit friendly?

Sounds good, have you gaiot any of the other Meris pedals? Looking at buying big on them very soon.

Nice!

I know that Shallow Waters is a fav of yours. Would you consider doing a video on the new CB Generation loss and maybe even comparing the two? As it is stereo, the functionality for synth, sample and mix processing seems really interesting.

Sounds amazing. Price is steep!! All the latest current offerings seem expensive to me. That or I am out of reality. I mean you can get an ASM Explorer or new Freak for the same price to put it in context. This is a serious sound effects monster though and looks great with the screen. Gives most synths a run for their money.

Nice mix of shimmers, warbles, degradations. Sort of like getting several Chase Bliss in one box for less money. And maybe less artificially induced scarcity and resultant pricing.

Was thinking about you yesterday and wondering how you were getting on, Hope alls well.

I don't think I would complain too loudly if one of those arrived in the post. Speaking of effects, ever looked into the Ensoniq DP/4?

Can't wait to hear this with the 'Enzo' & my ol' pal the 'Dr Scientist Bitquest'. I can see the Big Sky packing it's red spotted hanky on a stick already after hearing the granular delays. Mine arrives on Monday. I'll have to dust off the Roli gear & get the guitars out for this one... It seems a bit more than special.

Thanks to your video I am guessing they are now going to be sold out until sometime in 2023. ❤🤙🙃👍

Too many pedals in the world and not enough cash to buy them. Love the tone of those filters.

LVX it's best multi-effects pedal last time🖤

Meris makes such amazing stuff. But also, since you are exploring "deskstomps", just wanted to throw in a recommendation for the Hologram Microcosm. Although I'm guessing you probably already own one!

$600? NO WAY! :)

Always great to hear from you. That pedal sounds like a soft, fluffy pair of mutts nutts..

I do a version of this using Logic's I/O plugin and routing my guitar pedals into tracks....Meris pedals are the perfect instruments....I'll say that again: The perfect instrument....

Oh FFS not another one!! X

Strymon Timeline user here. Do you think Meris LVX is technically and musically better than Timeline in every aspect, and could it fully replace it? Or is it worth the money putting both LVX and Timeline in the chain? Interested in opinions for both studio and live performance workflows. Thanks!

❤️

Ha! I love some of those old racks you referred to. That horrible sound you referred to was on soooo many hits in the late 70s, 80s, and 90s, some of those patches will put you in a different time. And the sound of the different boxes themselves are sometimes gritty (low bit) or clean (like TC and Lexicon), but they all have their own sound. And now they are cheap and plentiful on the used market. Inspiring to me, but who am I? You should just keep on buying new kit and hope for some character, nothing to see here (he he he).

Love your toys. I wish....

❤️🎶🎵🎹🎶🎵👍🎶🎵🙏🍀❤️😎

Some of the Eventide stuff has a similar sound. So an interesting software alternative

Radiohead et al ... would love this hardware for performing live in the studio ... or playing live to an audience ... oh yes, yes they would!

Ningle-nangling ftw

mmmmm creamy!

How are you Christian? I'm actually really upset by what's happened to you at Spitfire, and the way they just seemed to have air-brushed you out of the company you co-founded is despicable. Seeing recent releases from Spitfire, without you as part of them, has left a very empty feeling: this now feels like a soulless company who can turn their back on one of their own so readily, and seemingly just move on. I've also been disappointed by the lack of outrage from the community who seem to be able to overlook shameful behavior on their doorstep, as long as they can still get their hands on the next shiny thing. Hoping 'what comes around goes around' is true in this case, and both you and Spitfire get what is deserved, even though those are 2 very different things right now.

Watching your channel is becoming very expensive.

Though a fun toy - would you pay, just shy of, £700 for one? In the current climate, lovely though it is, it feels like an extraviganze.

The Rhodes. . . My favourite sound of all time, loved it since childhood. I even entered the competition to win the Mk8, but not for me, it was for my Son (an incredible musician - I would say that I know, but lots of people say the same : ) So why destroy that beautiful sound like that? This ‘paid’ demonstration and promotion should be carried out on a different instrument, maybe a modular analogue system which are always screaming out for delays and loopers . . MERIS, if you’re listening, just saying. P E A C E : )

Lovely pedal. But very expensive. It’s hard for me to justify this cost over a software plug-in and a midi controller. I mean, on this device you would be fiddling with a tiny screen to make presets. An iPad or a laptop seems easier and more powerful. Am I missing something?

Hi Christian, because of privacy reasons I do not verify my phone with discord. Just reading. Just to notify for shure I do not upgrade my Kontakt, just to support the marketing of Native Instruments. And I will not use and install just the player. To get the new payed recommended libaries to run. My personal experience is that I use such libaries very rare. Please provide the paid libaries for users that do not upgrade their Kontakt. 6.4 is the realy end of compatibility. With my system and for shure I do not upgrade my Komplete 13 collectors edition for the support of Native Instruments marketing idea to let Artist pay double. I did downgrade my Kontakt to 5.9. and delete all extensions that I realy do not need. I guess I am not the only one that thinks similar. If you offer paid libaries to support artists than please care for a way that I first have to pay 500.-€ before I can support buy and use their Libary. Thanks for understanding and not leaving the spirit of Pianobook.

My girlfriend just said "all these pedals sound the same" Kinda agree with her. It all just becomes a wash

𝐩яⓞ𝓂𝓞Ş𝐦 😳

Unless one needs foot switches on an FX unit why on earth would a stomp box be a choice as opposed to (presuming it must be hardware) a rack unit?

Cancel culture though...

Sounds cheap

It's idiotic to buy hardware for things you can do with plugins.

I would love to know the psychology behind why pad sounds evoke such incredible emotional responses? I could audition pad sounds all day
