Mela 6.13: New MIDI Group module, enhancements to Note Hold
This video highlights the new features in Mela 6.13, including the new MIDI Group module and the improvements to Note Hold. MIDI Group is optimised for MIDI Processor sublanes and lets you retrigger held notes when its On parameter is toggled. Note Hold now supports modes, with Chord being a particu

AUv3 MIDI Processor support is coming to Reaper 😍

The developer also fixed an issue where Mela's audio effect type wouldn't appear in the AU list because it had the same name as the instrument type.

Mela 6.12 is here with further improvements to the MIDI Processor modules and the VA Oscillator. With this update, the transition to making the On parameter performance-oriented across all modules is now complete.

TIL dynamic and condenser mics recording the same source are 90° out of phase
Phascinating Phacts about Phase
In which I prepare for future battles with Reddit pedants who insist that "Phase is about timing and shouldn't be confused with polarity". Phase is not (always) about timing! Also I bet you didn't know the real difference between dynamic and condenser mics? Here's the DPA website to confirm it in

Mela 6.11 highlights:
- Oscillator modules now include new trigger modes.
- Amp Envelopes support reset-to-zero for smoother voice stealing.
- MIDI Processor modules are now more performance-oriented.
- By modulating their parameters can create algorithmic compositions.

Mela 6.11 is here with big improvements to the MIDI Processor and oscillator modules. For example, you can now creatively modulate Chord and Transposer parameters, including the On parameter and hear changes instantly without needing to feed them a new note-on event.

Not sure how exciting this is for Mela users, but I've wanted reset-to-zero behaviour in Mela's Amp Env for ages to make clickless note stealing possible. Finally cracked it, feels good!

Working on the FM Operator for Mela 6.11. It will have more parameters but a more compact UI, making it easier to stack and group into FM algorithms.

The video highlights the new features in Mela 6.10, with a focus on the enhancements to the module On parameter. The On parameter is now designed with performance in mind rather than serving only as a utility. e.g. it can be modulated to fade a module in and out smoothly.
