This editor is still in development. It is mainly tested on Mac. Thank you for pointing out the problems you are experiencing on Windows. Or any other issues of course. Thank you.
Have fun with your Enzo!
Thank you. After being forced to decode all sysex manually to enter new presets in my MIDI controller, this editor is like a dream come true. Thanks a lot!
Thank you for your message. I decoded the sysex too, of course, and documented it there: github.com/francoisgeorgy/enzo-web-editor/blob/master/sysex/README.md
it’d be great if the editor were able to output CC values directly... am I being too greedy now? :-)
@@cfibanez I'm not sure what you mean by that. What is the feature you would like?
CC values go from 0 to 127, the editor controls go from 0 to 10. No big deal, I can do it myself. Thanks.
@@cfibanez Oh, I see. Just hold your computer keyboard's ALT key and the editor will display the raw values.
Kudos to you for this GUI - it is really the best tool to see what the Enzo settings are. All the Meris pedals have this dual function hardware which is just too cumbersome to edit without seeing everything at once.
I have some insight I can lend for Win 10 users.
I was unsuccessful with my Yamaha Bluetooth adapter - not surprisingly it is not intended for Win OS but it was built to spec so the workaround for one way comm from the Enzo was adding loopMidi and MidiBerry which connected the dots. But your presets wouldn't change the GUI knobs so I knew I had to establish two way comm.
Because this set up, for me, is to memorize 16 useful sounds to recall on stage from a Morningstar, the purpose is to edit save and leave the PC behind. I bought an iConnectivity mio which allowed me to go PC USB to MIDI IN/Out on the Meris I/O ( don't forget to connect Out to In and vice versa). Once the mio driver was updated ( they only recently in Feb fixed a Win 10 issue) and the Win OS updated, everything worked !!!
I had been using MidiDesignerPro2 and TOUCHOSC from my iPad but your SysEx editor is superior!
Thank you. I too hate these hidden alt function. But I understand that is a good compromise in order to minimize the number of knobs on the pedal. I have some idea to make the editor, or maybe even a new app, more useful in a live situation, during a gig. And also a project to develop the same kind of editor but as a standalone app (iOS, Mac, Win) and plugin (VST). I just need to find the time...
This is amazing!! Fantastic work and myself along with every other enzo user I’m sure is super appreciative you are sharing this! As some other comments have said, I too spent / wasted $45 on midi designer which is no where near as good as this!! Amazing! Thanks!
Thank you so much Dave!
Holy mother this is AMAZING, and much needed.
This is amazing and you are a hero.
Thank you so much Matthew Malone.
to all Disaster Area DMC 3XL Gen 3 users:
1. if you use firmware 1.60 or older on your DMC 3XL, this editor will only work one way - from pc/mac to your meris pedal
2. the Disaster Area support team can send you the 1.62 firmware, which is not on their web at the moment because its just a Beta version yet.
3. then the settings should be the following:
MERIS:
- EXPR = midi
- MIDI CH = 1
- MIDI = out
DMC:
- DevA = Meris (MERS)
- JACK = MID3
- InCh = OFF (or anything else than 1 in this case)
- USB = MIDI
- THRU = ON (or some have the option USB here, probably another firmware)
if you are using an older firmware (1.60), then the JACK = MID3 and THRU = ON/OFF options are missing and the editor will only work in one direction. in that case it also didnt work for me at all with the MERIS connected to the DMCs multijack output, but only when it was connected to the DMC midi output slot.
with this it works now flawlessly.
thanks to everyone involved and mainly thanks Francois for making this amazing editor!
@@viktori1615 thanks! I was struggling to make them work. I just asked them for firmware 1.62, or can you share it with me? A question, should I put the DMC3 in Interface mode or just leave it normally on when connected to the computer and enzo?
@@nicholasbtorretta i guess DMC already sent you the firmware, otherwise i can do it i think. just leave it normally on. did it work?
@@viktori1615 Yes, they sent it :) Thanks! It did work, but I am having issues sending expression pedal signal from the dmc to my Enzo :/
@@nicholasbtorretta is it displaying the expression values on the DMCs display when you move the expression pedal? it should do so by default.
OH GOD I wish I had something exactly like this for the Ottobit and Polymoon!!!! Please Meris!!! Pay this guy to build a similar editor for your other pedals!!!!! PLEEEEZZZZEEEE!!!!!
I'm saving for a Hedra, then a Polymoon. So, maybe one day.
François Georgy I literally just watched a demo for the Hedra yesterday and now I’m saving for one too!!!!
This Enzo Editor is the version of Enzo that I dream to have. With 16 presets. Visual windows that all. Simple but Meris still doesn't made it after 5 years. Very sad. I will have to go back to an old Roland kit.
Agreed, it’s painful to use unless you’re an experimental music maker. If you record and play live you need to edit, save and recall preset - this should be child’s play in 2024. This aspect to both the Ottobit and Enzo is heartbreaking. The MC6 Pro really helps but I wish these pedals were less form and more function. It’s a bummer.
This is brilliant and I love it
Thank you so much. I have some ideas to make it even better and I hope to get the time to implement them soon.
C'est du génie !!!
MERCI !!
Merci énormément !!! :-)
incredible- so much thanks
Thank you so much!!!
I just want to be able to fine tune the tracking in global settings to actually play in tune. I bought the Enzo after watching a TH-cam video by pedal zone and was super excited about it! Sadly it takes what I play into it and alters it to 440hz. I play in 432hz and so when the tracking responds back roughly a 1/4 step off it just sounds terrible! My other pedals track just fine in 432hz and so I really hope Meris will be able to do an update asap to fix this issue… Otherwise I have to give up on the Enzo.
Hi Francois. Hope all is well. This editor has been an essential component for me using the Enzo properly and getting its juice out of the can. Thanks!!
Question: are you intending to do anything like it for Meris HEDRA? Love, /C
Hi @Zorionak2010. Thanks for your feedback. I'm really happy my little editor is useful to you. Unfortunately I only own an Enzo and a Mercury7, that's why I only developed editors for these pedals. I would love to have other Meris pedals unfortunately I don't have the money to buy them. Too bad :-(
If anyone wants to give me a Hydra (or Polymoon, ...) pedal, I'll be happy to develop the editor :-)
HI Francois. I made an interesting discovery. Out of an impulse, I tried your ENZO editor with HEDRA and guess what.... it works!!! Alas, the labels of the controls do not match (of course) but I control HEDRA from the editor and (more imporant) I can get the CC values of the different parameters in the editor. I think you can do a new editor for HEDRA (may be also other MERIS pedals) by just changing the labels in the editor you already have. The knobs map exactly to the same positions, pedal to pedal. Picth→Key. Filter→MicroTune. Sustain→Pitch1. FilterEnv→Pitch2. Etcetera. Cheers. /C
@@cfibanez Hi Zorionak2010. I'm not really surprised that my editor kind of works with other Meris pedals because they probably all share the same set of MIDI commands.
I would love to create editors for the other Meris pedals (I own Enzo and Mercury7) but I don't have the money to buy and I don't want to start a development for a pedal I don't own/use. And without the real hardware to test, any development I could do would probably be very buggy.
The code is open-source, so maybe somebody will fork it and create editors for the other Meris pedals.
Kind regards
As long as I don't care that moving the physical pedal knobs doesn't update the app knobs, can I use this "blind" with only a MIDI input to control the Enzo, or does it refuse to work if I also don't have MIDI out back to the computer?
Basically I own an Empress MIDI box and Disaster Area Midibox 4 which both do MIDI *to* pedals, but do I need the Meris version of the MIDI box that also gets MIDI out back from the pedals?
The editor will work fine with only MIDI output to the pedal.
@ Thanks! :)
Hi! This tool looks amazing! I'm having trouble to connect via bluetooth thou. My PC is connected to Yamaha BT-01 bluetooth midi and lights are on and I allowed midi on Chrome, but I cannot see the bluetooth on input nor output. Any ideas on what could be happening?
Hi! Can you check if you see your bluetooth interface with webmidi.info/ ?
@ Hello again :) I cannot see it... I opened it with Chrome and it says that my browser supports midi, but no inputs are listed. The BT-01 is paired to my PC and its lights are on.
@@comportamiento884 That means the problem is that your BT-01 is not recognized by your PC. I can't help you more, I don't have a Windows machine and I don't have BT-01. Check your BT-01 support page. I'm sorry. Good luck!
@ I fixed it! Gonna leave the answer here for anyone that needs help:
1. I got LoopMidi from here www.tobias-erichsen.de/software/loopmidi.html
2. Then MIDIberry from Microsoft Store www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/midiberry/9n39720h2m05?activetab=pivot:overviewtab
3. I created a virtual Midi port in LoopMidi (let's call it loopMIDI port as default)
4. In MIDIberry: select loopMIDI port as INPUT and MD-BT01 as OUTPUT
5. In EnzoEditor select loopMIDI port as OUTPUT.
DONE!
Thanks Francois! Awesome software :)
Hi François. I noted the new version of the editor. Awesome update, thanks! I miss the feature by which you got RAW values (from 0 to 127) instead of % when pressing the ALT key. Is there any other way to get those? Useful to me when I program a new preset in my MIDI controller. Thanks! (I'll buy you [another] coffee.) :-)
Hi!
I think this may be a bug. This feature should work. I'll check it asap.
Kind regards
Hi,
I fixed the editor and it is again possible to display the raw values by presing the ALT key.
Kind regards
Thanks for this very helpful editor. Unfortunately, as mentioned in other posts below, recalling a preset does not update the knobs so it's very hard to fine tune an already existing preset. All my settings are triple checked, moving the Enzo knobs reflects in the software. What puzzles me is that in the video the editor actually reflects the preset recall. So what's wrong ? Chrome with Windows 10. Could it be a problem with Chrome, though midi access is allowed ? Is this a bug ? Any update planned ? Thank you !
I'm sorry I can't really help you because each system is different.
Be sure to check your pedal setup as well and your MIDI setup. There're quite a lot of thigs which have to be setup correctly for everything to work. This can be helpful : studiocode.dev/kb/Meris/meris-pedals-checklist/
And, regarding an update, I don't think I will have time to work on this editor anymore. It works perfectly for my needs and I know other users who use it regurlaly. I don't want to break something by updating it. But, the main problem is that I really don't have the time at the moment. Sorry.
François, sorry for not updating my post, it all works perfectly now. The culprit was using a multieffect's midi in outs (BOSS GT1000) but since i switched to my audio interface's midi i/0 it now works like a charm. Really sorry for posting too hastiily ! Thanks a lot for this editor ! Et un toast francophone depuis Okinawa, santé ! ^^ @
Bonjour@@paulmahoux ! Merci pour l'infos. Je suis heureux de savoir que l'édtieur fonctionne enfin correctement pour vous. Et merci pour le toast! Un toast en retour depuis la Suisse. Santé!
☺@
Excellent Turorial, comme toujours. J ai moi, trouver ton Canal , apres avoir acheter un NEKTAR PACER , et , j utilise l editor pour le PACER. EXCELLENT travail !!! j espere pouvoir aider un peu , si possible. Si par chance , l editor pouvais creer des files pour chaques preset , de facon a pouvoir avoir des back-up et restorer chaque preset sur le pacer , ca serais aussi genial.
Bonne continuation.
Have a good time and Stay SAFE !!
This will be much better than buying a keyboard synthesizer, does this have good techno or EDM based synths for guitar
I found filter-envelope on my enzo works not the way I supposed (as It reacts in usual synth). Decay triggered only after I stop string vibration at any values of decay.
thank you for building this editor every thins running good however when i touch a knob in the editor the web broswer gets glitzy and starts sending mixed messagers
Hi. Thank you. Which browser do you use? Chrome? Under Windows or Mac?
@ chrome in mac am going to check the midi baby setting to make sure there is not a midi feed back loop
Hey!! This 'get-inside-the-hood' editor is KILLER man!!
Are there plans for a Hedra Editor?!?
CHEERS!
Thank you very much! Unfortunately, no plan for the other Meris pedals, as don't have the money to buy them :-(
Thank you!
I have a Disaster Area qConnect and I can't see the screen knobs change when I move the physical knobs, but it seems to work the other way. Am I doing something wrong? I have tried the usb interface on the qConnect and the actual 5 pin midi in/out on the qConnect to my lexicon lambda but neither work. Thank you. EDIT: I figured it out, can only do read/write fully on Port X, though not sure why I can't do it with the midi cables.
Hi! Unfortunately I don't have a qConnect so I can't help you. I'm sorry. Check your cables, the Meris global settings, make sure you select the correct device and port in the editor. Good luck!
@ Thanks for response, I did figure it out... it only works if the Meris pedal is using a specific port (I think X) for read/write, not any port.
On the video I see that when you select a preset the knobs settings reflect immediatly their positions in that specific preset. When I use the editor everything work perfect except this feature. The MIDI communication work in both sides (from Enzo to editor and from editor to enzo), if I move knobs on the Enzo then knobs on the editor move and vice versa but when I activate different presets from Enzo or in the editor itself the state of the virtual knobs don't change at all (the sounds change accordingly thought)... Any clue? Thanks for your help! Great editor BTW!
I have the same problem
Same problem here !
Check and re-check you setup. I think this can be helpful : studiocode.dev/kb/Meris/meris-pedals-checklist/
Brilliant
Thank you!
New to all this MIDI malarkey and hoping someone can help me out:
If I have the Enzo and DMC 3XL what else do I need to get this to work or do I have everything required? Would it be hardware or software? I'm able to connect my DMC to my PC but not sure how to get the Enzo to connect as in turn the knobs and see it change on screen.
Would massively appreciate any help ideally in simple terms
Hi! You have everything you need. Connect the Enzo to the DMC and the DMC to your PC and this should work.
Don't forget to configure the Enzo for MIDI (see Enzo documentation). Here is a checklist that could help you: studiocode.dev/support/meris-pedals/
Last but not least, in the Enzo editor, don't forget to select the correct MIDI ports and channel.
Enjoy your Enzo!
As anyone had trouble with getting Midi In to register? I can use the interface to control the pedal but I'm not getting any midi in signal.
Hi. Can you send MIDI to your Enzo with another software to check if this is a problem with the Enzo or with the editor?
Has something changed from 5 months ago ? I can no longer see the preset dial changes when I select them in the editor. Nor can I see any incoming midi to change the editor dials.
Running Win10
Hi. The only change is that, now, the editor can receive PC messages. Otherwise, nothing. I'll have a look as soon as possible.
François Georgy the Meris IO didn't like anything else connected to it...once removed the Enzo had two way Midi and populated the editor.
I have a Focusrite audio interface with midi i/o.
Do I still need to buy a Meris midi i/o interface to use this editor?
Well. I see some guys answered my question bellow. I'm gonna try. Thanks!
Incredible effort! Is the Meris MIDI I/O interface a requirement, or is it a standard midi protocol that can be accessed by other midi pedal interfaces?
Thank you. This is standard MIDI. The Meris I/O interface is not the only one compatible with Enzo. For example, interfaces and controllers from Disaster Area are also compatible. And probably other that I'm not aware of. Check out www.disasterareaamps.com/shop/midibox for example.
Totally sucks that Meris didn't set up the software to be used thru a simple USB connection... ☹️
Sometime i ask my self if they exist. I wrote to them, write on their TH-cam Channel...no answer. It's a very nce machine but with no saving presets it's impossible to have it live. I will not twik on stage. Sad
My Enzo is sending CC messages to the Editor and the Editor reflects them accurately, but my Enzo will *not* accept CC messages and cannot be controlled with the editor. Do you know why this might be happening?
Hi. Check that both input and output correspond to your Enzo in the editor. Also, how is connected the Enzo to your computer?
@ Channels are set correctly thanks to me doing several factory resets and going through the global configuration process multiple times. The Enzo is connected to my computer via the Meris MIDI I/O and the Yamaha MD-BT01 Bluetooth MIDI transceiver. The MIDI in and MIDI out on the editor are both set to my Yamaha MD-BT01, which I know for a fact works because my Empress pedals are working 100% with a different webapp.
@@dariomoran7452 I'm really sorry but I don't know what to say. Difficult to debug remotely. Do you have the possibility to check which MIDI messages are exchanged between the editor and the Enzo? If you have a Mac, Snoize's MIDI monitor is a great app for that (www.snoize.com/MIDIMonitor/). On Windows, unfortunately, I don't know which app does the same.
will it work with DMC-3XL Gen3? thanks in advance
Should work with any midi controler.
@ will let evey one know by the week end looking forward to getting this baby running
on a mac i have the gen 3 hooked up and the midi utiltity sees it but the web interface does not, as of the moment is the a way to attach screen shots her
am in and rolling ttyl
Sends midi out but not receiving midi in something btw the gen 3 and enzo not synced as of yet
is the source available? would love to self host this and hack on it a bit!
Yes. Check it out at github.com/francoisgeorgy/enzo-web-editor
But be aware that the code is already pretty old and I would implement it very differently now.
Great you have this. I would guess you don't want to hear this, yet wish it was developed as a standalone app rather than through a browser. Thanks!
Well, if I had the time I would have built a VST or standalone app. But, since I just have a couple hours a week to code, webmidi in the browser is the easiest way to get something functional quickly. But, I agree with you, a standalone app would be nice, and probably better looking too.
@ Understand the point of your message. However I'll put this out as a suggestion if it's helpful. You can decide. Perhaps Meris would pay you to build it for their product. Maybe also for their line of other pedals! There's a lot of great you've got going on there! It's rather exciting. When I recently bought my Enzo pedal they were "out of stock" and had to find one from another dealer. You can still see it on their website. More on the way they wrote me. Thanks!
