Nikolozi Meladze has released the Mela 3 to Mela 4 crossgrade. If you already own Mela 3 you can purchase Mela 4 at a discount using this bundle, otherwise, using this bundle you are able to purchase both apps at the full price of Mela 4. The crossgrade is available for $29.99, $34.99 of both both Melas are purchased separately.
PLEASE NOTE: After the intro promotion for Mela 4 ends, it will be cheaper for all Mela 3 users to use the bundle to purchase Mela 4. But during the intro price period, it might work out cheaper to buy Mela 4 directly (as opposed to using the crossgrade bundle). This is because the App Store calculates the complete-the-bundle price by taking the bundle price and subtracting the amount you paid for Mela 3.
About Mela 4
Mela is a modular music-making tool that scales with your needs. With its intuitive interface, you can seamlessly build fully custom monophonic synthesisers, unique audio effects, and complex MIDI processors. Mela can run as a standalone app on iOS and macOS or as an AUv3 plugin inside your favourite DAW such as AUM, Drambo, Logic Pro and many more.
A Mela preset is made up of ordered modules arranged on lanes that process audio and MIDI signals. Each lane can receive and send signals to and from the host or other lanes using buses. The modulator modules can modulate any parameter of any module on any lane. The lanes and modules can be easily added, removed or rearranged making the preset as complex or as simple as desired. Mela comes with 38 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, noise, filter, amp envelope, distortion
- Modulators: envelope follower, envelope generator, LFO, macro control, MIDI source, random
- Audio effects: chorus, delay, flanger, phaser, compressor
- Utility: level metering, MIDI logger, audio oscilloscope
Inside a host, Mela can be loaded 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.
Mela’s capabilities continuously improve, evolve and expand based on its long-term vision and user feedback. Feel free to get in touch for anything Mela related.
