Hey folks,

7.01 update upgrades MIDI controllers and analyzers, adds phase controller for oscillators, optimizes MMultiBandGranular and more.

Also one more processor has been released - MVocoder, which is free for MTotalBundle and MCreativeBundle users and is now available for a riddiculous introductory price as usual.



Check http://www.meldaproduction.com for more information .

Cheers!

Thanks !
I will try it !

So I can feed in any synth in the side chain and it works as a carrier? Can I also feed in any audio sample?

Furthermore, can I create with MVocoder vocal lines like those I've heard on "Foster People - Pumped Up Kicks" (with some distortion and EQ)?

Yes! You can feed it with anything...



Well, I checked youtube for this song and I didn't hear any vocoder, just some bandpass and maybe distortion.

Thanks for your reply! I've thought the producer of Foster People would have used a vocoder for this smoky, slightly distorted vocals. But Daft Punk use vocoders, don't they? Or do they use just pitchshifting?

Well, can you send me some link, so I can check?

Some pictures seems to be missing from the online manual.
Is there any audio demo on your website ?

Yes, it should be fixed. No audio demoes at the moment, shall be in the future, but in this case it's probably going to be a little hard, as vocoder seems more like a "personal" effect.

Just so you know when installing on my 17" Macbook Pro 4,1 with 10.6.8 I kept getting the following error:
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/28602715/masteringbundle_error.jpg
The installer would then quite out saying the install was not completed.

I tried a restart and repairing file permissions to no avail.
In the end I completed the install was to delete all the Melda Mastering Bundle files from the library/audio/plug-ins/components and re-tried the install. It worked.

Nice optimizations on the Granular plugin BTW. Running very smoothly in Reaper now!

Oj, I haven't heard about this error for quite a while! It always helps to delete the plugins, but why it cannot be done by the installer I don't know, probably because Mac OS adds some "alien" files into the packages, but who knows.

I simply can't get this working.

How do I feed the sound I want to "vocode" with another. Please don't just say via sound-chain, let me know in detail what to do. A video tutorial would be even better if possible..!?

Well, I'm afraid the answer really is "via sidechain" . What host are you using?

So, that means that we can vocode stero sources ?
Nice.

Do you have any plan to add a chorus and an integrated synth ?

Sure! I didn't even know it normally isn't possible . Well, here you can use 8 channels if you want...



Note really, you can do that in MXXX and this would seem like a feature duplication.

In most vocoders, you use left channel as the carrier, and right channel as modulator.
Side-chaining is nice, then


Errrh, MXXX seems muuuuuch more than a vocoder, a big modular beast, so i wouldn't call it a "feature duplication", it is 2 different things
