The Meridian is a seriously cool filter module – a real workhorse for sound design. It’s got a surprising amount of character and flexibility for the price, especially with those OTA emulations and the ping function. Ideal for experimental electronic musicians and those wanting to add some unique movement to their soundscapes.

Frequently Asked Questions
The OTA models are convincingly warm, but lack the pristine clarity and headroom of a genuine Moog filter – it's a digital approximation, but a very usable one.
The overdrive is surprisingly versatile; the 'Crush' and 'Tone' controls allow for subtle saturation and warmth, or full-blown distortion.
It's primarily designed for modular integration, but the audio input/output allows it to function as a standalone filter/effect for external signals, albeit with limited control options outside of CV inputs.
