Mela 3 — Synth, FX & MIDI app analytics for December 19

Mela is an intuitive virtual analog synthesiser and multi-effects processor with a streamlined interface. It can be loaded either as an instrument, audio effect or a MIDI processor plug-in inside a host application such as AUM, BeatMaker, Cubasis, GarageBand, Ableton Live or Logic Pro. If you begin working on a track in GarageBand on your iPhone or iPad, and later open the project in Logic Pro on your Mac, then all instances of Mela, Mela FX and Mela MIDI plug-ins will load just as you left them on your iOS device. Mela – Synthesiser Audio Unit Plug-in (AUv3) - 4 great sounding oscillators - 2 virtual analog style filters - 3 envelopes with adjustable level, time and curve parameters - Envelope modes: sustain, trigger and loop - 3 tempo syncable LFOs - Effects: distortion, phaser, chorus, flanger, delay and compressor - Fully featured modulation matrix - Flexible signal routing options - Voice modes: monophonic, polyphonic, legato and glide Mela FX – Multi-FX Audio Unit Plug-in (AUv3) - Input section with pan and level controls - 2 virtual analog style filters - Effects: distortion, phaser, chorus, flanger, delay and compressor - 3 tempo syncable LFOs - Envelope follower with peak and RMS modes - Follower can be driven by the audio unit's normal input or side chain - Fully featured modulation matrix - Flexible signal routing options - Global dry/wet mix and bypass controls Mela MIDI – MIDI Processor Audio Unit Plug-in (AUv3) - The Mela MIDI plug-in comes with many MIDI processor modules - These modules can be arranged in any order on up to 4 lanes - Each lane can receive and send MIDI to the host via different virtual MIDI cables - The modules can be combined in creative ways to create interesting MIDI processor chains - The LFO and Random modules can modulate any Mela MIDI parameter - MIDI Modules: Arpeggiator, Chord, Control Change, Note Echo, Note Length, Pitch Range, Pitch, Scale, Strummer and Velocity - Modulator Modules: LFO and Random - Utility Modules: Logger and Panic Oscillators - Standard selection of saw, sine, square and triangle waveforms - Ability to morph between the waveforms or distort them using the shape parameter - Modern phase distortion algorithm with an additional harmonics parameter - Harmonics adjusts the richness of the generated waveform and modulating it sounds similar to filter sweeps - Great sounding noise oscillator, which sounds warmer than pure white noise - Other features: transposition, tuning, pan and level Filters - Selection of great-sounding self-oscillating resonant filters - Ability to morph between low-pass, band-pass and high-pass Modulation Matrix - Both Mela and Mela FX come with a fully featured modulation matrix - Most parameters of the audio units can be modulated - Modulation sources: envelope generators, envelope follower and LFOs - MIDI sources: velocity, key, mod wheel, aftertouch and pitch bend - The matrix supports both positive and negative modulation intensities Routing - Oscillators can be routed to filters in 5 different ways - FX section can be inserted before filter 1, after it or after both filters Plug-in Features - Customisable Perform View that gives you access to the parameters that you care about most - Highly flexible layout, makes the best use of the space provided by the host's window - Preset management with import/export features Mela App - The Mela synth can be used by simply launching the app - Supports all orientations on both iPhone and iPad, including split-screen on iPad - It can respond to MIDI input from external sources - Supports background audio If you enjoy using Mela, leave a review on the App Store.
