MeldaProduction has announced that it has released two new plug-ins - MFlanger and MMultiBandFlanger - and updated all its existing effect plug-ins, fixing some problems with Mac OS and Win64 and adding some new features, such as ABCD morphing.

MFlanger is free for non-commercial use or can be purchased for a minimum donation of €16 (which will also license all other “free” MP plug-ins for commercial use). MMultiBandFlanger costs €30 but is currently available cheaper via MP’s “50% February quick discount” offer - €16 at the time of posting this news item. It is free for owners of MTotalBundle and MCreativeBundle.

MMultiBandFlanger is a powerful multiband flanger with adjustable shape.

Features:

• 1-6 fully configurable independent bands built on a perfectly transparent crossover with fully adjustable limits and input gains. Includes peak meters for all bands and the master.
• Continuously adjustable oscillator shape: every oscillator is defined by a mix of predefined oscillator shapes, envelopes from the MeldaProduction Envelope System (MES), and a step-sequencer.
• 4 global modulators: in each instance you can have up to 4 modulation full-featured LFOs that can modulate any parameter including other modulators. This way you can make the sound move in time, be less static and more interesting.
• Full randomization: using a single button you can generate completely new settings. By clicking the button you can walk through the billions of possible settings and find the best one for you.
• MIDI controllers with MIDI learn: you can map any parameter to any MIDI controller or MIDI keyboard and control it realtime or record and automate it.
• Sinc interpolation and high-quality upsampling: this plugin implements advanced technologies to provide the best audio quality.
• Automatic synchronization to host tempo: every oscillator (including modulators) in the plug-in can automatically synchronize to the host providing maximally natural sound not offending other tracks.
• Fully automatable depth.
• Global preset management: using a title button you can save your settings, which are shared on the computer, so you can easily access them in another songs.
