The Mela MIDI plug-in has 2 new modules: Note Echo and Pitch Range. Note Echo repeats incoming note-on and note-off messages. You can easily set at what rate the events repeat as well as by how much pitch and velocity the notes ramp up or down with every repeat. The Pitch Range module ensures that notes are in the given range either by filtering out notes outside the range or transposing them up or down a few octaves until they fall into the range. For more changes check out the release notes below.

Mela 3.2 Release Notes

Mela MIDI Plug-in:

• Added the ability for re-arranging modules using drag and drop.
• Added the ability to remove a module via its more menu.
• Added the Note Echo module.
• Added the Pitch Range module.

Note Echo Module:

• The Note Echo module repeats incoming note-on and note-off messages.
• The Sync parameter defines the tempo sync value, whereas the Delay parameter is a percentage value in the 50-200% range. Their product defines the resulting note repetition interval.
• The Repeats parameter sets the repetition count.
• The repeating notes can be ramped up or down in pitch and/or velocity.

Pitch Range Module:

• The Pitch Range module ensures that its output note messages are in the given range.
• In Filter mode, notes outside of the range are filtered out.
• In Transpose mode, notes outside of the range are transposed up or down a few octaves until they fall into the range.
• When the Lowest parameter has a higher value than the Highest one, the behavior is inverted. i.e. the values in between the lower and upper bound are filtered, or transposed outside of the range.

Other Changes:

• Added mono-to-stereo channel configuration support for the Mela FX plug-in.
• Fixed an issue where the Mela FX plug-in would fail to load in Ableton Live 11.2 beta.
• Fixed an issue where the tappable areas of the oscillator tabs were blocked by the Preset Selector’s buttons, causing Mela to load another preset or show/hide the Preset Browser.

• The Mela plug-in now has a Drums preset group.
• Added new presets.
• Updated the User Guide.
