Essential Information About Melda MCharacter Software
- Intelligent harmonic shaper that detects pitch in real time and allows adjustment of the first 32 harmonics to enrich timbre and clarity.
- Missing harmonic synthesis and sub-octave creation via two simple curves to boost bass, vocals, or brass.
- Advanced modulation (LFO, envelope follower, pitch detector, randomizer...) for lively and evolving textures.
- Free lifetime updates, precise visualization, A-H presets, and ultra-fast workflow.
What MCharacter Is For
MCharacter is designed to sculpt the character of monophonic sources (vocals, bass, trumpet, saxophone, synth leads). By directly controlling the harmonics that follow the pitch, it allows clarifying a timbre, enhancing presence, adding brightness, or thickening the low end of the spectrum. It also opens creative possibilities such as generating sub-octaves, higher harmonics, or harmonic morphing effects impossible with a traditional equalizer.
Main Features
Direct Harmonic Control
Work in the spectral domain with remarkable pitch detection and instant changes. Precisely adjust the level of each harmonic to correct resonances, highlight a musical formant, or restore definition without altering the overall dynamics.
Synthesis and Spectrum Extension
When certain components are missing, simply draw which harmonics to generate and at what level. Create a solid sub-octave for bass, add upper partials to make a voice cut through, or completely rethink the timbre of a lead.
Modulation and Workflow
Modulate any parameter via LFO, level follower, envelopes, randomizer, or pitch detector for organic sounds. Benefit from A-H presets for quick comparison, Mid/Side and multi-channel support up to ambisonics, all with a 64-bit engine, AGC, and safety limiter for controlled gain staging.
Ergonomics and Performance
Scalable interface with clear visualization (VU meters and time graphs), multi-parameters, global preset management, and MIDI learn. Optimized code for AVX2/AVX512 processors ensures exemplary responsiveness, even at high sample rates.
