Use cases and applications
-
Enzo's dry mode is favored for its ability to enhance tone with filter and mix settings, creating wah effects or delay-driven drones.
Source -

User experience
-
Some bass players find the Enzo's ARP section inadequate for chord recognition, recommending its use primarily for single-note lines or guitar applications.

Users report the Enzo lacks punch for aggressive synth bass, suggesting its strength lies in creating ambient, space-filling textures.
Source -

Other world!
I have been waiting for this one so long, and is to much better than i bealive. You can make your guitar sound like no one else, and still soun like a guitarrist player. In fact even if any other players have Enzo Meris, the set up is so unique (knobs cover a lot of range in the set up, a little move is a lot of change), and you can store 4 set ups to deal on a live context.

This is a fun one
Midi control is a must with this. Truthfully I'd like a little more control but this really is a great pedal

Awesome
First of all, you do better get preset switch, because this is not an easy pedal to use. But this pedal can do a lot, and by saying "a lot" I mean A LOT! It sounds brilliant, combine this box with eqd data corruptor and you will sound like a space shuttle with endless amount of sounds. Each and every beardy dude is your fan since then

I found a magical sounding setting on the Meris Enzo that really inspired me to make a loop. I have it set on dry mode with the pitch set to a 4th and then the mix knob about a quarter up. Thinking about making it into a full recorded thing. I included a picture of my settings in the video so you can match it if you want and adjust from what I have mine set to
