Key Features
The Melda MModernCompressor is a highly-versatile compressor plug-in which boasts advanced features and intuitive ease of use. An indispensable tool for the modern producer, engineer or musician, MModernCompressor is perfectly capable of working with any instrument in your mix, from vocals to drums, bass to synthesizer. A transparent compressor, MModernCompressor maintains the sound of your source material, even at high compression settings.
A powerful input follower listens to your incoming audio signal and uses a combination of RMS length, look-ahead, six-band filter, psycho-acoustic pre-filter and spectral smoothing to intelligently process any audio track you'll find in your projects. In addition, MModernCompressor also features Automatic Compression made, where the plug-in analyses your audio and sets up the compression parameters automatically, delivering dynamics control and punch all without touching a single button!
Product Ref: 229573
Boasting all of the expected parameters and controls, MModernCompressor lets you dial in your compression with a huge amount of flexibility. Controls for ratio, threshold, knee, attack and release are all included but what makes MModernCompressor different is the automatic compression knob. Here, MMeldaCompressor will listen to your incoming signal and setup the parameters for you automatically!
Compressors react differently to the input source, so a flexible level follower is key. Melda have implemented an input level follower which features an RMS length, look-ahead, fully-featured six-band EQ filtering, psycho-acoustic pre-filtering, spectral smoothing and much more in the input stage for fast and responsive tracking.
A must-have for modern compressor plug-ins, MModernCompressor can be upsampled to extremely high amounts, up to 1024X in-fact. This is ideal as when using non-linear processors such as compressors, aliasing may occur in the upper frequencies, leading to unwanted cramping and artefacts. By upsampling the sample rate internally, you can avoid resampling your project which can itself lead to latency and other problems and instead use the minimum-phase algorithm to avoid these types of problems.
Whether you're working on music, game audio, film, TV or even VR audio, Melda MModernCompressor can handle everything from mono, stereo, mid/side, eight-channel surround and up to 7th-order ambisonics for immersive 64-channel audio.
Once you have found a sound that suits the needs of your mix or project, Melda have included a carefully designed storage database to load up your presets in any future projects in any host. Inside the preset database, your presets can be automatically uploaded to a shared server where other like-minded users can download your presets. You can also download presets direct from the database to your plug-in and expand your collection of presets from other users in the community.
Offering an almost unlimited number of different sounds and combinations, Melda MModernCompressor employs multiple switching systems to audition multiple different settings at the same time. Instead of the traditional A/B switching, Melda has included an A - H switching, letting you load up to eight instances of different settings and switch between them seamlessly. What's more, instances A - D can also be morphed between using the onboard X/Y pad, allowing you to find the perfect blend between four sounds simultaneously!
Ideal for experimental sound design, Multiparameters let you manipulate multiple parameters together in one macro control. With this, you can completely transform your sound in as few steps as possible, making it ideal for automation purposes or for combining several multiparameters to create a unique sound unheard of before.
When creating tones or browsing presets within MModernCompressor, you will only hear the change in sound that your processing applies and not the volume change. We can often be fooled into thinking that a louder sound is better without the context of hearing how it sounds when level-matched. Melda has included Automatic Gain Compensation across the entire plug-in which adapts to settings to ensure the output is only as loud as the input to make better mixing decisions.
Not only this, but Melda MModernCompressoralso features a Safety Limiter fixed to the output level at 0dB. This ensures that any adjustments to the output volume that you make in your processing won't go above digital clipping and will hit the brickwall limiter, saving your ears from any potentially harmfully loud sounds.
With such a wide array of different tones available inside Melda MModernCompressor, you might struggle to find which song fits your music the best. To help you quickly compare several different settings, Melda has included an A/B comparison switch. This lets you audition two settings simultaneously without needing to dial in the settings every time.
Taking it one step further, MModernCompressorincludes A - H switching, offering up to eight slots of settings where you can freely switch between all eight to find the right sound for your song. Additionally, Slots A - D are available in the built-in X-Y pad, letting you blend between four potential settings and find the right balance between each of them.
