The Meris Ottobit X takes the vintage gaming and lo-fi character of the original Ottobit concept and expands it into a powerful modern texture workstation. Designed for guitar, synth, studio, and experimental sound design, Ottobit X combines advanced bitcrushing, sample-rate reduction, glitch effects, pitch shifting, modulation, filtering, preamp colors, VHS-style ambience, and real-time performance tools in one stereo pedal.
From subtle digital wear to extreme signal destruction, Ottobit X lets you shape sound with a wide range of degradation tools. Explore grain freeze, stutter, tape stop, push looping, vinyl-style scratching, VHS delay, VHS reverb, lo-fi pitch effects, ring modulation, frequency shifting, tape modulation, and more.
The pedal also includes 99 preset locations across 33 banks, a favorite preset bank, an expressive Hold Modifier switch, MIDI control, stereo input and output, expression pedal support, and a premium analog signal path with high-resolution digital processing.
Whether you want retro video game tones, broken tape textures, experimental glitch rhythms, synth-friendly processing, or cinematic lo-fi ambience, Meris Ottobit X gives you a deep and performance-ready platform for creative sonic destruction.
