Meris 500 Series Ottobit

Say 'Hello' to the Meris Ottobit 500-Series Bitcrusher – No quarters needed. Crush bits, de-res and sonic destroy. Beep Boop Bop Boop Beep! Conceived as an “Audio In >> Video Game Out” unit, the Ottobit enables you to transform your audio through a dynamic maze of textures, synth elements and bit crushing and is designed to give musicians and sound designers tools to sculpt any source into audio reminiscent of early 8 and 16-Bit video game soundtracks. Ottobit allows you to create totally unique sounds using its sample rate decimation and bit reduction circuitry, while giving you power over the video game soundscape with a host of Ring Mod effects, Envelopes & LFO Filters.

Along with bit reduction (right down to 1-Bit) and sample rate decimation, Ottobit offers ring modulation, envelopes and LFO Modifiers and tap tempo control to trigger the envelopes and is a powerful creative tool for electronic musicians and producers. It offers a unique collection of processing elements, giving you absolute control over interesting textures, sweeping sample rate changes, tremolos, vibratos, vintage octavers and primal pitch shifting, all inspired by Kubrick’s use of the Information Rate Changer.

Made in California with a premium analogue signal path and 24-Bit AD/DA with 32-Bit floating-point DSP, Ottobit will smash, crush and decimate your signal opening up a whole universe of aural possibilities. Its design is unique, granting you the power to make any sound source sound like those video games soundtracks so evocative of the 80s.
