Note: This is the Lite version of MSoundFactory. The full version of MSoundFactory is also available.
MSoundFactoryLE provides all the sounds MSoundFactory comes with, but it doesn’t let you access the edit screen though.
Powerful Instruments
MSoundFactory provides hundreds of predefined sounds available via global presets, just as any other instrument. The true marvel however is the categorized system of instruments. An instrument is not just a sound, potentially with a few macro controls. It is an entire “instrument”, with lots of settings and its own presets.
Imagine an 808 bass, you’d buy a dedicated plugin for it, right? Well, you don’t need to, because that’s an instrument inside MSoundFactory. Same as a grand piano, an electric piano, an organ, various synths, basses etc.
Free-for-life Updates Including New Instruments
As a Melda customer you already know that you get all future versions for free, right? But you also get future instruments for free! Melda Production are just not going to try to sell you more stuff all the time like everyone else. MSoundFactory is a platform that gets you a free flow of new sounds.
There may be some commercial instruments in the future, but most of the stuff will be available for you with no cost at all. You can expect electronic synthesized stuff as well as various sampled instruments.
Key Features
Automatic gain compensation (AGC)
- Most plugins change loudness of the output audio, which makes browsing presets inconvenient, not mentioning randomization. MSoundFactoryLE includes automatic gain compensation, which quickly adapts to current settings and ensures the output sounds as loud as the input. This even protects you from thinking that something sounds better in cases it is just louder.
Safety Limiter
- Some plugins can intensely increase gain when exposed to specific audio materials. MSoundFactoryLE provides a safety brickwall limiter, which ensures the output stays below 0dB and prevents your equipment and your ears from potential danger automatically.
Extremely fast, optimized for newest AVX2 and AVX512 capable processors
- Computers are now extremely fast, but the algorithms are more complex and projects bigger, so Melda stills need to use the processing power with care. MSoundFactoryLE uses the fastest algorithms, takes advantage of the newest processor capabilities, lets your GPU handle the graphics, and shares the resources with other MeldaProduction plugins. The plugin is among the fastest on the market, yet it provides the best possible audio quality.
Compare Multiple Settings
A/B comparison is a widely used method to objectively hear the changes you are making to your audio and help you to make better decisions, non destructively.
- A to H Switching: Melda has taken this to the next level. Have up to 8 instances of the plugin, copy/paste the A to H slots and freely switch between them.
- A to D Morphing: You can also morph between the first 4 slots with an X-Y pad. Not sure which preset to choose? You could load 4 and find the perfect blend of all of them. Not sure if A or B sounds better? You might prefer an interpolated state somewhere between the two.
Supports VST, VST3, AU and AAX interfaces on Windows (both 32-bit and 64-bit) & Mac (64-bit only)
- MSoundFactoryLE supports all major hosts on both platforms.
Advanced GUI
User interfaces need to be fast, simple to use and be easy on the eye. Everyone’s needs can be different, so flexibility is important. Melda solves this with the most advanced GUI engine on the market.
- Stylable: From vintage hardware to super futuristic. You can choose the colours and style of the GUI, making the plugins personal to you.
- Resizable: All Melda plugins are freely resizable. Many also feature popup windows. So no matter how many screens you have or what size they are, you will be able to arrange your plugins to keep a focus on what is important.
- GPU Accelerated: All the elements in the GUI are accelerated by your GPU. This makes the graphics lightning-fast and frees up extra power for your CPU to focus on the audio.
- Stunning Quality: Melda plugins support HDPI and Retina displays, so you will experience beautiful crisp resolutions. With adjustable frames per second up to 100, you will not miss a thing in Melda’s detailed analyzers.
No dongle nor internet access is required for activation
- How many times did you forget your USB dongle? Melda Production are an honest company and expect the same from their customers. This software uses licence files to activate your software. And the licences are to-person, so you can use it on all your computers as long as you are the user.
MIDI Controllers with MIDI Learn
- MSoundFactoryLE contains a powerful MIDI processor, which listen to MIDI controllers and MIDI keyboard and control any parameters realtime.
Global Preset Management and Online Preset Exchange
MSoundFactoryLE presets are carefully stored in a system database and you can quickly access them from any project in any host. The plugin can automatically share your presets and download presets of other users from Melda Production’s servers. They are building a community and you can be a part of it!
Smart Randomization
Melda’s state of the art randomization system gives you complete control. You can randomize parameters in 3 ways:
- Complete full randomization of everything.
- Subtle small random changes to your current state.
- Smart randomization.
Melda’s smart randomization engine learns, using information based on existing presets to offer better values that will result in more successful changes. You can even lock certain parameters that you wish to be excluded from the randomization. This level of control can really help you out when you have a creative block and offer up fresh and inspiring ideas you may have never thought of.
Sinc Interpolation
MSoundFactoryLE implements the most advanced interpolation technology to provide the best audio quality.
- M/S, single channel, up to 8 channels surround processing…
- MSoundFactoryLE can handle not only mono and stereo signals, but also mid/side encoding for stereo field processing, separate left & right channels, separate mid or side signal and up to 8 channels of surround audio. It is perfect for audio production for music, movies, games…
Free-for-life Updates
- When you buy the software you are entitled to free updates, forever. No more money wasted on major updates like it is with other companies. And Melda Production update their software a lot!
Adjustable Up-sampling 1x-x
- Digital audio provides very superior audio quality compared to ancient analog gear, but there are problems too. The main problem is the aliasing, which may be noticeable, when using nonlinear processes such as compression or saturation. MSoundFactoryLE includes both minimum-phase and high-quality linear-phase upsampling algorithms, which avoids the aliasing.
Unique Visualisation Engine with Classic Meters and Time Graphs
- Your ears should always be the main tool, but they are not the only way to judge your audio. Visual aids can be incredibly useful for a variety of reasons. Melda’s comprehensive metering system is extremely flexible and delivers you accurate information when you need it. From classic meters to time-based graphs, you will see important visual feedback including; Input, Output, Stereo width, Loudness, Waveforms, Bands, Gain reduction and Sidechain, and some plugin dependent meters.
64-bit Processing and an Unlimited Sampling Rate
MSoundFactoryLE provides the maximum audio quality you can get. It uses 64-bit audio processing and can handle any sampling rate. It does not make much sense to go over 192kHz, but if you think it is a good idea, the plugin can do that.
