Why use guitar pedals in the age of great software plug-ins? Well, in this overview and review of the Meris Polymoon, an incredibly intuitive delay and phaser pedal, I attempt to answer that question.

Happy Friday Castaways!
I think this video convinced me to get this pedal
Thank you so much for watching! I actually just reviewed Meris' brand new pedal MercuryX, check that out as well :)
Wow I just ordered this glorious pedal..I done some calculations and I counted 800 different combinations between the modulation options and Dual Envelope/Lfo settings !! And then add in all the different Delay structures and Phasing/Flanging and it seems this pedal is absolutely unbelievable!!!
It’s truly amazing! Enjoy! Glad my review helped :)
NOW I get this pedal! Very informative and inspiring.
Glad you enjoyed! Check out the video I just posted on this pedals big brother, the Meris LVX
Love that intro tune, it reminds me of Royksopp. Very inspiring demo!
Much love! Royskopp are amazing
What a fantastic device 👌 Brilliant Video 💯 love the sounds 🤩 🙌
Thanks Jay! Agreed, it’s a real gem of a pedal
@@devinbelangermusic Absolutely 💯 👌 🤩
Great presentation man. Have you ever tried something like this as an external effect send?
Late reply but absolutely! I always run 1 or 2 pedals out as a send from my Apollo. I like the ROOMS or Empress Reverb and then either this, the LVX or the El Capistan usually for my 2 sends.
Hi Miles, i made my choice for reverb and very very happy with my mercury x, it is more difficult for delay, sure everybody agree that lvx is the best delay on the market but often i heard that is not straight forward and not that easy to twick . Combine polimoon with empress echosystem would be a better choice ? Or the lvx stay your best choice ?
Great question! I think that comes down to if you are a sound designer or a player first and foremost. LVX is the deepest by far but requires some tweaking. Echosystem sounds great and lots of algos, but not really deep to design on
Sick intro!
:)
Thanks for this review 👌 ! Would be curious to hear the Electro-Harmonix Stéréo Memory Man, this pedal has been used with synths on lot of records.
Thanks for watching! I’ll take a look at that one, But just wait for my delay comparison video as I’ve got some pretty special other delay pedals you might not have heard of :)
@@devinbelangermusic Kool, cannot wait : )
Hi, Meris Lvx is more complete or it’s another beast ? thanks
Hi Miles, would it be a good second delay to add to my timeline for synth and guitar
Thank you so much
yes! but I replied to your other comment, LVX came out after this and is imo the best digital delay made
Are you using the meris midi box to keep the delay clock in time with your sequence?
Wondering if I can do this without having to buy their $100 midi box lol.
Or are u just using manual tap tempo and embracing the imperfections?
Thankss
Just tap tempo! I hate clocking pedals to midi unless its something specific like Microcosm. I like the imperfections of tap tempo :) if you do want midi though get the LVX
Dude, is that intro song released?! What is that?! Please tell me I can listen to that as is?
hey Shane! It's just a original demo song I made for this video. I make a new original demo song for each piece of gear I review (it's my thing!) and they are all available to download on my patreon over all the months in the Tier 1 "Copyright Free songs and goodies" folders.
very interesting and inspiring. I am really tempted to get one of these, but than again I think the same sounds can be achieved with 2 plugins (thats for my personal workflow). Thanks for showing the possibilities of the Polymoon.
Thanks for watching! Yea totally, I know that any sound can technically be made with plugins and I love my plugins (UAD and Output are my faves) but it's just not the same workflow as having all the knobs with no screen like this! Makes me more creative :)
Wow what an amzing sounding delay, sound to me better than my plugins like echo boy etc. am sold oh god hear goes on the pedal unit collection lol
HAH sorry to open the floodgates for you. But you seriously can't go wrong with Meris. Check out my Delay Shootout For Synths video if you are curious too
What brand/model is that 3 tier keyboard stand? I’m in the market. Trying to decide if I want one line that or the 4 tier square ones that slide out. Blanking on the name. I’ll remember 10 seconds after I post. 😅
Sorry I don't know the name! Bought off craigslist years ago and the logo is not there. Its fine for studio but I definitely would not trust it live
Damn... Selling my DD-8 to get this instead I guess! Great video again, thanks!
Thank you! Meris really do make great pedals. Check out my LVX video too
Amen!
Wooooooah that's my boy
👍👍
has the LVX replaced this for you?
Personally yes because I am mainly a studio composer/producer, and the deeper side of the LVX is perfect for me. But if you don’t need all the modular features of the LVX, the workflow and sound on this is still absolutely top. And I miss being able to run phaser, flanger, and multi tap delay all at once - Polymoon only can do that, LVX can’t
So good
Thank you Rob!
Maybe I need to get some knobs to turn for my plugins!! It would be better for my wallet if I preferred them.
haha I know the feeling! Pedals will always have that kinetic draw for many of us
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great pedal
Agreed! Did you see my video on the Meris LVX? Another great option to consider
@@devinbelangermusic I’ll take a look but Injave the polymoon such a unique pedal.
🙌❤️
Thanks for watching Tim!
