First full length album made on an iPhone
Many single tracks have been produced on the iPhone, but this is more, much more LOL and even a music video made using nothing but the iPhone, but New York outfit Nuclear O’Reilly claim to be the first band to make a whole album using Apple’s touchscreen marvel. The work is titled Phoning It In, and the duo’s App of choice? Intua’s amazing Beatmaker. See/hear all about it in the video below…

The new Melda bundle – 25 plug-ins in all :-)
MeldaProduction has announced the release of the MTotalBundle, a new effect plug-in bundle which, as its name suggests, contains all of MeldaProduction’s effect plug-ins to cover all required tasks when composing, mixing and mastering.
The complete list below:
Mixing & Mastering
 |
MMultiBandDynamicsMMultiBandDynamics advanced multiband dynamics processing module plug-in is an advanced multiband dynamics processor with clear sound; designed originally for mastering, however due to its high performance and zero latency it is also suitable for any mixing purpose. It features up to six fully configurable independent bands. In addition, starting with two compressor/expander units and finishing with an advanced custom processing shape editing feature enabled by our incredible MeldaProduction Envelope System (MES) technology, MMultiBandDynamics becomes a total advanced multiband dynamics processing solution! |
 |
MAutoEqualizerMAutoEqualizer advanced mastering equalizer and analyzer plug-in is a revolutionary (but not only for) mastering plug-in; that combines a powerful equalizer, state-of-the-art linear-phase equalizer and analyzer in a single window. Also, it is the first software featuring our MeldaProduction Filter Adaption (MFA) technology which can actually perform the equalization for you based on an analysis of your recording, another recording or any spectral content which you can literally “draw” using our MeldaProduction Envelope System (MES). |
 |
MDynamicsMDynamics advanced mastering dynamics processor plug-in is an advanced dynamic processor with clear sound.

Mastering
 |
MMultiBandLimiterMMultiBandLimiter is an advanced state-of-the-art multiband mastering brickwall limiter plug-in that makes your recordings and mixes sound louder with minimal distortion and artifacts.

 |
MSpectralDynamicsMSpectralDynamics spectral mastering dynamics processor plug-in is a true mastering revolution. It can do many things, but it’s main feature serves as an ultramodern hi-tech replacement for multiband compressors and loudness maximizers. With top-class features such as custom shape processing it can provide you with a varied and wide range of effects. Additionally, it provides you with a free-form linear phase equalizer with a range from -80dB to 0dB; which you can use to fix specific issues in your recordings and mixes. |

Multi mode gating
Found this great video uploaded by thedeepelement, below is what he writes about the test:
“‘m testing out a)Make Noise’s Quad Multi Mode Gate (qmmg) module and b)Flip’s UltraHD camcorder. I wanted to share a video of how extreme the module can get with normal Tip Top Audio and Cwejman waveforms. I first preview all four channels without activating the gates. Then I turn all the channels to VCA, Both, LP and finally HP modes. After that I manually mangle the sound and return back to VCA mode. Everything is coming out of the summing mixer. So in short you get a Mixer, VCA and multimode filtering. Why don’t you have this yet?”

Rob is back with a new great plug-in
This is what you cn read about the new reverb effect
Reverb is a very critical effect when mixing. A bad sounding reverb can ruin the mix of your music! Today’s powerful computers makes it possible to run far more complex algorithms then in the past. But still… it is down to the algorithms if a reverb sounds great or terrible.
As a young synth player, Rob became obsessed with rooms and reverbs. Together with Jon Ayres, Rob Papen has dived into codes and searched for new directions.. new algorithms. After long testing and tweaking, the result is an unique sounding reverb plugin, the reverb you have been waiting for for year to have available in your setup.
The first respond of pro users like Arman van Buuren were comments like “Wow” or “Amazing!”….
The “main focus” of the RP-VERB plug is its sound. So the controls are “exactly” the ones you need!
Easy to use “space types” are included, each of them have their own character. Long tail reverbs… or unheard of rooms are possible. Just like the RP synthesizers….it is purely made for audio quality, performance and making music. Mix with RP-Verb and you will discover its amazing sound.
Download the highly capable Odo synth for free
Odo from Odosynths is well known on the DIY synth forums especially the SynthEdit forum. A heavy synthedit user he has just released all his softsynths for free. Odo was already very generous giving away a lot of synths, drum machines and processors but he has decided to release all his softsynths for free.
