What’s new in version 6.14:
- Pitch Ramp Module
- The Pitch Ramp module linearlv ramps the Pitch signal toward the incoming value over a defined interval when a note-on event is received.
- It is a useful module for creating simple pitch envelopes quickly
- The ramp interval can be defined in seconds or as a tempo-svnced value
- The Range parameter, with a -48 s to +48 s range, defines the pitch offset the ramp starts from on note-on.
- Pitch Ramp is a Mela Lab module and part of Collection 4.
- Factory Presets
- Added 3 new presets to the MIDI FX group: “CC Remap”, “Drums-to-MIDI”, and “Velocity Remap”.
- Added the “Rich Saw” preset to the Leads group, demonstrating how the Pitch Ramp module can be used to create rich sounds
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 using modules arranged on lanes, where signals flowing through the lanes are processed by the modules. Audio and MIDI signals can be sent and received to and from the host or routed between lanes using internal buses. Modulator modules can target any module parameter on any lane. Lanes and modules are easily added, removed, or rearranged, allowing you to design presets as simple or complex as needed. Mela comes with 76 modules, with new ones added with every update. The following are some examples from different categories.
Mela can be loaded inside a host as one of the following plug-in types: Instrument, Audio Effect or MIDI Processor. The only difference 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.
