Nikolozi Meladzi has updated Mela 5 with new additions and changes, available as a FREE download with various in-app purchases available to unlock the various modules. One of the Module collections is also provided for FREE. In-app module prices have been reduced to celebrate the update, now only $13.99 each, (usually $19.99 each). The offer ends June 2nd.
What’s new in version 5.5:
- All Pass Module:
- The new module allows all frequencies to pass through without attenuation, while introducing varying phase shifts.
- It includes first- and second-order filter types.
- The first-order type shifts the phase by 90º and the second-order by 180º at the cutoff frequency.
- The module is ideal for creating audio effects such as phasers.
- The All Pass Phaser preset, found in the Audio FX group, demonstrates the module’s functionality.
- All Pass is part of Collection 3.
- Other Changes:
- Added new presets.
- Mela now supports side-chain audio input when loaded as an instrument plug-in.
- The side-chain signal comes through Audio In 1 for the instrument plug-in, but when Mela is loaded as an audio effect plug-in, it comes through Audio In 2.
- Increased the number of supported lanes in a preset from 8 to 16.
- The XY control has been simplified. The independent X and Y handles are gone, and the entire control area responds to touches, improving the experience for live performances.
- Updated the UI layouts of the following modules: Distortion, DS Oscillator, MIDI Source, Rectifier, VA Filter, VA Oscillator, and VPS Oscillator.
- Removed the on/off switch from the Panic module, as it served no purpose.
- If purchasing is disabled on your device due to Content & Privacy Restrictions or a Mobile Device Management profile, Mela’s In-App Purchasing view now displays a warning.
- Fixed a bug where Digital Delay synced delay times didn’t follow the host tempo.
- Fixed truncated parameter labels for DC Offset in the Rectifier module and Asymmetry in the Distortion module at certain zoom levels.
- Fixed a bug where some UI components wouldn’t switch to the light or dark scheme correctly in AUv3 mode.
- Fixed a bug where MIDI Logger’s content wasn’t scrollable.
- Fixed position value formatting in the MIDI Logger module.
- Made many small internal improvements.
Mela 5 has arrived, bringing along 6 new modules.
Mela is a modular music-making tool that scales with your needs. With its intuitive interface, you can seamlessly build fully custom polyphonic synthesisers, unique audio effects, and complex MIDI processors. Mela can run as a standalone app on iOS and macOS or as an AUv3 plug-in inside your favourite DAW such as AUM, Drambo, Logic Pro and many more.
In Mela, presets are constructed from modules arranged on lanes, each processing audio and MIDI signals. Lanes can receive and send signals to and from the host and other lanes. Modulator modules can modulate any parameter of any module on any lane. Lanes and modules can be easily added, removed, or rearranged, making the preset as complex or simple as desired. Mela comes with 58 modules, with new ones added with every update. The following are some examples from different categories.
- MIDI processors: arpeggiator, chord, note echo, scale, strummer
- Synth building blocks: virtual-analog oscillator, FM operator, phaseshaping, noise, VA filter, amp envelope
- Modulators: envelope follower, envelope generator, LFO, macro control, MIDI source, random
- Audio effects: chorus, delay, distortion, flanger, phaser, compressor, comb filter, EQ, stereo panner
- Utility: level metering, audio oscilloscope, MIDI capture, MIDI logger
Mela can be loaded inside a host as one of the following plug-in types: Instrument, Audio Effect or MIDI Processor. The only difference between them is the number of audio and MIDI inputs and outputs. Otherwise, the features are identical and a preset created in one type can be opened by another.
Modules are organised into collections. Collection 0 is FREE, providing you with the opportunity to test out Mela’s features. Other collections can be purchased via in-app purchases. New modules will be added to Collection 3 throughout 2024. That means you can purchase it now and have new modules appear unlocked as they become available.
The following is a list of all modules:
- Collection 0: Amp Envelope, Arpeggiator, LFO, Meter, Relative Pitch, Stereo Delay, Transposer, VA Filter, VA Oscillator, Volume.
- Collection 1: Balance, Chord, Chorus, Control Change, Compressor, Distortion, DS Oscillator, Envelope Generator, Envelope Follower, Flanger, Glide, Level, MIDI Logger, MIDI Source, Mono, Noise Oscillator, Note Echo, Note Length, Note Range, Panic, Phaser, Pitch Bend, Random, Scale, Strummer, Velocity.
- Collection 2: Clipper, Comb Filter, DC Blocker, Degrader, EQ Band, Fixed Pitch, FM Operator, Macro, MIDI Capture, MIDI Channel, Oscilloscope, Pitch Ratio, Rectifier, Vibrato, Voice Activity, VPS Oscillator.
- Collection 3: All Pass, Audio-to-Mod, Digital Delay, Dual Pan, Macro Button, Mid-Side, Multiply-Add, Noise Gate, Note Event, Note Pad, Phase Inverter, Simple LFO, Stereo Pan.
