Meris has unveiled the new Enzo X synthesizer, but it is more than just a simple expansion of the original. In fact, the company describes it as “the highest quality and most flexible polyphonic synthesizer ever created in pedal format.” It certainly doesn’t come cheap, but a long list of features backs the price tag.

Enzo X offers five synthesizer modes, including Mono, Polyphonic, and Dry Processing Modes along with polyphonic pitch detection with no special pickup necessary. The synthesizer is playable via instrument input or MIDI keyboard and its six fully polyphonic voices are available simultaneously. It also has ADSR Envelope Generators for both Amplitude and Filter, configurable oscillator and filter types, and an expressive hold modifier switch for on-the-fly control. Users have access to 99 preset locations in 33 banks while the favorite preset bank offers instant access to your three favorite ones. The list continues with features such as a digitally controlled analog mix bus, dedicated expression pedal jack, MIDI preset send and receive, instant access tuner with configurable reference and output mode, and much more. 

Enzo X is designed and built in California, U.S.A, and will be shipping from March 2025. For more information, the full specifications, as well as a complete comparison of how much better the Enzo X is compared to the original, visit the official website (https://www.meris.us/product/enzo-x/)
