Meris Mercury7 Reverb Pedal
Best premium reverb for ambient soundscape creators.
The Meris Mercury7 Reverb Pedal is an algorithmic DSP reverb in a pedalboard friendly design. It features handcrafted algorithmic reverbs with an analog mix and dry signal path, intra-tank pitch regeneration, and high and low-frequency damping. The pedal offers extensive modulation capabilities and an auto-swell envelope that is variable and foot-switchable. It supports stereo input and output and has a switchable input/output headroom level for guitar, synthesizer, or line levels. Expression pedal control over all parameters simultaneously is available, and presets can be accessed via an external 4-preset switch or MIDI. The pedal utilizes a premium analog signal path and 24-bit AD/DA with 32-bit floating-point DSP, along with a premium Analog Devices JFET input section. It is designed and built in Los Angeles, California, USA.

Know before you buy
You can use it with both. The pedal features switchable input/output headroom levels, allowing you to easily toggle between guitar, synthesizer, and line-level signals without clipping.
Yes. The Mercury7 utilizes an analog dry signal path, meaning your original signal remains untouched by digital processing, while the wet/dry mix is handled in the analog domain to maintain signal integrity.
You can access presets using an external 4-preset switch or via MIDI control. The pedal does not have onboard preset storage, so an external controller is required to recall saved settings.
Yes, the Mercury7 allows for expression pedal control over all parameters simultaneously. You can map multiple settings to a single sweep, making it highly effective for complex, evolving soundscapes.
True Bypass uses a relay to completely remove the pedal from your signal chain when off, while the Analog Buffered Bypass keeps the signal active through the premium JFET input section, which is better for maintaining signal strength over long cable runs.
No, the power supply is not included. The pedal requires a standard 9V DC power supply with a minimum of 150 mA of current.
