Meris Ottobit Jr — MIDI Editor & CC Reference

Control the Meris Ottobit Jr from your browser — full MIDI CC reference for 7 parameters, interactive editor, and AI-generated presets. Free, no install.

Nitelite gives the Ottobit Jr a full browser-based control surface: turn every knob, flip every switch, describe the tone you want to the AI Tone Terminal, and save the results — all sent to the pedal live over MIDI (default channel 1). Works free in Chrome, Edge, Opera, or Brave — no install required.

Knobs

ControlMIDI CCDescription
SAMPLE RATECC 16Changes the sample rate of the input signal from 48 Hz to 48 kHz. Lower sample rate settings create low-resolution audio with overtones similar to ring modulation.
FILTERCC 17Cutoff frequency of the Meris original ladder-style low pass filter, from 96Hz up to 24kHz. At max the filter is bypassed.
BITSCC 18Changes the bit depth from 1 bit to 24 bits, crushing the input signal and decreasing dynamic range.
STUTTERCC 19Sets the stutter play speed and length. The knob steps through 23 positions organized into Full Speed, Double Speed, and Half Speed ranges — each with 7 length selections from Stutter Once to Stutter Sixteen Times. Minimum position = Off. Maximum position = Random (combination of all above plus reverse).
SEQUENCERCC 20Sequencer play mode. CC ranges: 0-3 = Off; 4-32 = Play Once (1X); 33-59 = Play Twice (2X); 60-87 = Play 4 Times (4X); 88-115 = Play 8 Times (8X); 116-127 = Play Continuously (infinite).
SEQUENCER MULTCC 21Sets the sequencer speed as a multiple of the tap tempo. CC ranges: 0 = 1X; 1-19 = 2X; 20-39 = 4X; 40-59 = 8X; 60-79 = 16X; 80-99 = 32X; 100-119 = 64X; 120-127 = 128X. Higher multiples can push the Sequencer into the audio band for ring-mod-style effects.

Alt / Secondary Knob Functions

ControlMIDI CCDescription
STEP 1CC 22First step of the sequencer. Meaning depends on Sequencer Type (Pitch: semitone offset; Filter or Sample Rate: 0-100% modifier). CC 0 = skip, CC 127 = mute.
STEP 2CC 23Second step of the sequencer. Meaning depends on Sequencer Type (Pitch: semitone offset; Filter or Sample Rate: 0-100% modifier). CC 0 = skip, CC 127 = mute.
STEP 3CC 24Third step of the sequencer. Meaning depends on Sequencer Type (Pitch: semitone offset; Filter or Sample Rate: 0-100% modifier). CC 0 = skip, CC 127 = mute.
STEP 4CC 25Fourth step of the sequencer. Meaning depends on Sequencer Type (Pitch: semitone offset; Filter or Sample Rate: 0-100% modifier). CC 0 = skip, CC 127 = mute.
STEP 5CC 26Fifth step of the sequencer. Meaning depends on Sequencer Type (Pitch: semitone offset; Filter or Sample Rate: 0-100% modifier). CC 0 = skip, CC 127 = mute.
STEP 6CC 27Sixth step of the sequencer. Meaning depends on Sequencer Type (Pitch: semitone offset; Filter or Sample Rate: 0-100% modifier). CC 0 = skip, CC 127 = mute.

Special MIDI Functions

  • Tap Tempo — CC 28
  • Expression — CC 4
  • Bypass — CC 14. When on, the effect is bypassed (dry signal only). When off, the effect is engaged. Per Meris spec: 0–63 = FX bypass, 64–127 = FX enabled.
  • Stutter Hold — CC 31. Freezes the audio that is being stuttered. 0-63 = Hold Off; 64-127 = Hold On. When held before a stutter has trapped audio, the next played note/chord will be stuttered until released.
  • Tempo (7-bit) — CC 15. Sets the main timing directly as a 7-bit value (0-127). The tempo drives the Sequencer and Stutter and has a very wide range from 23.4 BPM to 6000 BPM (up to 768000 BPM effective when combined with Sequencer Mult).

Hardware Presets

The Ottobit Jr has 16 hardware preset slots. Nitelite can save your current settings to a slot and recall slots via MIDI program change.
