Gleefully glitchy, the Meris Ottobit bitcrusher takes the sound of vintage gaming consoles and expands it into a multifaceted 500 Series module for advanced sonic manipulation. The core of the Ottobit is its variable sample rate and bitcrushing controls, which allow you to add a dose of down-sampled grit or devolve a signal into sputtering, mangled nonsense. But, Meris pushes the boundaries of typical bitcrushers, with LFO modifiers and ring modulation. Equipped with straightforward controls, Ottobit is easy to use out of the box, yet it invites deep exploration and yields up a slew of effects, including rhythmic tremolo, wild filter modulations, and more. Artists and producers at Sweetwater have found myriad ways to employ the Ottobit in the studio. Guitars, synth, bass, drums — crush them all with the Meris Ottobit.

Get weird with LFO and ring mod

The Meris Ottobit 500 Series module sports a unique set of features distinguishing it from the pedal version, including an LFO — for modulating the sample rate — and a ring modulator. You can sync the LFO to a tapped tempo and adjust the depth of the effect. And the ring modulator includes a blend control for balancing amplitude and frequency modulation, for dynamic tremolo and vibrato effects. Both the LFO and ring mod boast selectable waveforms, allowing you to experiment with different textures and discover limitless new sounds.
