But I really don't know if I can cope with using these interfaces. I wish I could use it with my eyes closed. LE is an absolute steal for 24 €. I have the full version, but have rarely dug that deep. There a loads of devices with custom UI's with tweakable settings. Here is a two minute overview: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asprog Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 2 hours ago, pseudopop said: If I recall correctly, when calculating the price they subtract 70% of what you have actually spent on the plugins in that bundle. So if you buy the Mixing Bundle, the price of the Complete Bundle should be €1049 - (€324 * 0.7) = €822. You would then spend €1146 in total for the Complete Bundle. Please someone check my math. Many thanks! So no point in buying "small" bundles to reach the Complete Bundle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Additionally, there may be a point in buying individual plugins only through resellers if they are more than 50% off. AFAIK Melda is calculating everything at -50% off if you bought from a reseller. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asprog Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 Yes, the best place currently is http://www.dontcrack.com/ (Buy 5 products or more and get 20% EXTRA DISCOUNT off all products!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition to dontcrack (which is great if you want to use the Melda plugins as a way to get to the 20% tier for something else, like xils products), pluginboutique has them already at 20% off from the 1st one and you have 5 potential freebies to choose from (if you haven't already). I also find it quite easy eyeing the top deals at the pluginboutique website, with the discount in a big circle https://www.pluginboutique.com/manufacturers/16-MeldaProduction?s=price_asc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
User 905133 Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 (edited) MSoundFactoryLE for $26 is the lowest price I can remember. But you might want to check third-party vendors. Plugin Boutique is showing me $22, plus they have a choice of freebies (Choose 1 out of 5 with purchase). You can only use the new-user referral code at Melda's site, though. Might be worth your while check other sellers, esp. if you have virtual cash/rewards someplace. Only you can decide which combination of cash + perks is best for you, but I don't think it would hurt to look around--unless you wait too long. Taxes vary, too. Edited November 23, 2023 by User 905133 fixed typo to clarify that the discussion is about the LE version 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

audioschmaudio Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 (edited) I finally got myself MSoundFactory LE for 19€ (1€ for the 25% voucher at Humble Bundle and 18€ with the voucher applied). I guess I'll get used to the interface. A small price that I have to pay. They could have sold it to me for thrice the price though if they had a better designer.

MusicMan Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 (edited) I did the same and grabbed and grabbed MSoundFactoryLE as it also seems to include ALL of the instruments of the full version, including I believe being able to use the sounds from the drum machines as well from what I gather. Somebody else might be able to confirm that, but either way it's great value. Not being able to edit those deeply doesn't both me, as I'd normally be applying my own effects etc to drum samples anyway and some sounds like pianos you don't always need to go deep with the virtual instrument itself, as I'll also apply my own effects. Plus it already includes a crazy amount of instruments with more being added and I'll get them too. New customers can also use MELDA57625915 for an additional 20% off. Also for anyone that purchased this, is it possible to install the sound libraries to an external drive?

MrFigg Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 Right...I know MB stands for MultiBand. Questions is... is that the only difference between, say, MTurboComp and MTurboCompMB. I have both. Guess I can just delete the non-MB version? Also...I have MReverbMB and also MTurboReverbMB...does the Turbo one do everything the otheer one does or are they very different? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mettelus Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 In reality, the MB feature is the difference between the paid for and free versions (where there are two). They use the same coding with the exception of the MB additions, so you could remove the non-MB versions, but they do not take up a lot of space on the machine. I rarely reach for the MB version first, because the crossover bands can get tricky and become audible (ironically, more audible as you shift to playback devices with less capabilities).

Yeah, it was more about tidying up my browser to make things easier to navigate. What about the Turbo version of delay? Should I go ahead and delete the "normal" delay? Then there's MDynamicsMB and MDynamicsMBLarge. What's that about? Edited November 24, 2023 by MrFigg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eusebio Rufian-Zilbermann Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 For those cases where the non-MB is not free, if you buy the MB version, does it include the license for the non-MB version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbl4311 Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Any good acoustic instruments in MSoundFactoryLE, other than the pianos? Drums? I'm already well covered for synth sounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm already well covered for synth sounds. Right now, not so much in terms of samled acoustic instruments but the point of Melda is the constant updates and additions. I tend to guess this massive guitar and bass project he has going has some possibility of making it inside, if he doesn't make it a separate vst. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
