EFFECTS LOOP
The Meris 440 was designed in every aspect to be the premier solution for recording guitar. The basis of the design
yields classic American console tone heard on countless records. From the legendary Cinemag input and output transformers
to the high performance hybrid-discrete opamps, our engineers carefully made every design decision with the highest sonic
performance in mind. We set our sights on the goal of creating the ultimate preamp for miking an amp or even an acoustic
guitar. You’ll find that the 440 provides the shortest path to great guitar recordings. With it’s specifically tuned filters, and it’s
integrated pedal level post effects loop, the Meris 440 is a complete solution for a finished guitar track. Of course the 440
also performs on varying sources like vocals, strings, and percussion. The effect pedal level loop opens up a world of color and
processing to all of your recordings.
Installation into a 500 Series compatible rack enclosure
1. Power down your 500 series rack before installing (and removing) the 440.
2. Align the 440 with the desired rack slot, and check that the 440 is right side up.
3. Apply pressure to the top and bottom edges of the front panel to seat the 440 into the backplane connector.
4. Secure the 440 with the appropriate mounting screws for your rack.
5. Power up your 500 series rack only after the 440 is securely installed.
Usage
Connect a microphone to the
440’s corresponding rack rear
XLR input using a balanced
connector.
Start with the Gain
and Output controls
at 12 o’clock, and the
-20dB Pad switch in
the down position (OFF).
Set the filters to the
middle position (bypass)
which will provide a flat
frequency response.
Apply Phantom power
only if you are certain the
microphone requires it.
Phantom power may damage
certain microphones including
ribbon mics.
For unbalanced line or instrument
signals, use the Return / D.I.
input as a high impedance input
and control D.I. gain with the
Output control.

Features
• Legendary Cinemag input and output transformers used in classic American consoles that were the basis of the West Coast
sound of the 70’s. A short list of records that would have featured these electronics: Van Halen - II, Fair Warning, Diver
Down, Rolling Stones - Exile on Main Street, The Doors - several albums including L.A. Woman, the Beach Boys - Pet Sounds,
Fleetwood Mac - Rumors. The list goes on and on.
• 2 high performance Hybrid-Discrete opamps. One at the input transformer section and one driving the output section.
Effect pedal level effects
loop. The loop is located
between the input and output
transformer sections for the
highest signal integrity. The
signal levels are carefully
optimized as to not cause
clipping in pedals.

EFFECTS LOOP
• Only premium quality components selected for the 100% analog signal path
• Meris designs and manufactures all of our gear in Los Angeles, CA USA. Even our transformers are wound just a few miles
away from the Meris office.
The output control was carefully placed
in the output transformer hybrid-discrete
drive section avoiding post-output
transformer attenuators in other preamps
that can degrade the output transformer’s
performance.
High-pass filter selectable between 80Hz and
200Hz. The 80Hz setting is useful for cutting
the mud out of a woofy guitar cabinet or even
as a typical high-pass on vocals. The 200Hz
setting is often useful when recording an
overly boomy acoustic guitar.
High shelf boost filters at 4kHz or 7kHz give
you 3dB of boost at those respective corner
frequencies. Many times when miking a guitar
cabinet, engaging the 4kHz high shelf and the
80Hz high-pass achieves a finished tone that
requires no additional e.q. at mixdown. The
7kHz high shelf can add necessary presence to
an otherwise outstanding ribbon mic that could
benefit from some sparkle in the high end.
Standard feature Pad and Phase
switches.
Switchable phantom power
with LED indicator.
The effects return jack also doubles
as a great D.I. for bass, guitar or other
instruments that require a high impedance
input. The D.I. also provides up to 12dB gain
if necessary and benefits from the tone of
the output transformer.
