Nikolozi has launched Mela 6.0, a significant function replace for its modular digital analog Synthesizer AUv3 plugin for macOS and iOS.
Mela is a digital analog Synthesizer app/AUv3 plugin with a wi-fi modular engine. The developer, Nikolozi Meladze, has been massively updating the app all through 2024, not just for customers of all collections but in addition for all others.
Simply earlier than the 12 months’s shut, Nikolozi pushed a significant 6.0 replace for Mela with quite a few new options.
Nikolozi Mela 6.0
Mela 6.0 introduces many new options to the modular engine. An enormous change comes within the lane idea of the engine. All lane sorts (audio, MIID, instrument) at the moment are unified right into a single common lane with merged capabilities.
Nikolozi says it affords a preset migratory that robotically converts your presets to make use of common much less. So-called sign router modules exchange current lane audio and MIDI I/O settings, together with Audio In, Audio Out, MIDI In, MIDI Out, MIDI-to-Poly, and Poly-to-Audio.
These new modules take over all audio and MIDI duties. For instance, the brand new MIDI-to-poly module converts MIDI messages right into a poly sign. You may as well set the polyphony for the presets and extra.
With the brand new Poly-to-Audio module, you’ll be able to collapse a poly sign into an audio sign by summing voices whereas retaining the final note-on Pitch sign. Modules that don’t assist Poly alerts robotically carry out this collapse.
Module Updates
Nikolozi Mela 6 additionally has main updates for current modules:
- amp envelope: Now mirrors the behaviour of the Envelope Generator. When no Poly sign is current, it makes use of MIDI alerts to set off assault and launch states, shaping the Audio sign accordingly.
- panic module: Eliminated, because the performance is now built-in into the MIDI In and MIDI Out modules.
- voice exercise: Now shows Audio sign ranges and MIDI sign’s final observe and velocity when no Poly sign is current. Plus, it now robotically resizes primarily based on the preset polyphony.
- modulators: The “Targets” view now not scrolls to the underside on look.
Additional, it comes with different enhancements and fixes.
