Meris releases free prEDITOR editor/librarian for LVX delay
February 29, 2024 · 1 sources
Meris released prEDITOR, a free editor and librarian for its LVX delay pedal, on February 29, 2024. The software is available as a download from the manufacturer's website1.
prEDITOR lets users create and change LVX presets from a computer rather than through the pedal's color screen, which the report describes as small1. The preset library can be managed by drag-and-drop, and the software also allows configuration of the pedal's basic settings1. To use it, the LVX connects to a MIDI interface and a computer over MIDI In and Out1. The software is free, so existing owners can use it at no extra cost1.
The LVX is a stereo delay that Meris calls a Modular Delay System1. It offers 2540mS of what Meris calls a "Highly Configurable Dual Delay," 99 preset locations in 33 banks, a Favorite Preset Bank for three presets, and a true stereo 60-second looper1. Front-panel controls include knobs labeled Time, Feedback, Mix, Mod and a Preset/Pages knob that also saves, plus Controller 1 and Controller 2 knobs for moving around the color screen and changing parameters1. Four footswitches operate looper functions, move up and down banks, or access the built-in tuner1. The signal path is analog with a JFET input section, using 24-bit AD/DA conversion and 32-bit floating point DSP built around an Advanced ARM Processor1. The stereo delay and effects include Preamps, Granulize, Cassette and Poly Pitch, drawing on parts of Meris's Polymoon, Hedra, Enzo and Ottobit Jr.1. Inputs handle guitars and synthesizers, and the back panel has MIDI In and Out on full-sized DIN jacks, an expression pedal input and a USB-C port1. Bypass is selectable between true bypass (relay) and analog buffered bypass1.
The LVX list price is $5991. The report says the pedal was announced for the summer and available for pre-order on the company site1.
