MeldaProduction has officially announced V17 of its plugin suite.

The latest version introduces MPluginManager as a new and easy way to manage all installations, licensing, and subscriptions from one convenient location. MPluginManager automatically detects and uninstalls older versions of plugins, ensuring you have the latest updates without downloading any unnecessary data.

Melda’s modular virtual instrument MSoundFactory also gains six new instruments, including Cyberpunk Bass, Trap Bass, Cyclicity, Ethereal Keys, Alchemist Whoosh, and Organic Scape — all of which are available for free for existing users.

Additionally, core efficiency improvements have been made across the board, with Melda updating the compatibility of all its plugins (“including the free ones”, says the brand) to meet current standards. Some plugins like the MTurboDelay feature a lot of new presets with the update.

V17 maintains backward compatibility with all previous plugins, ensuring a seamless transition if you’re upgrading from earlier versions. Users who have previously installed MeldaProduction plugins can also take the chance to restart their 15-day trial period with the new version.

That said, making a decision about which plugin to buy can be tricky when you’re on a tight budget or deadline. One way to have all of Melda’s 100-plus plugins at your disposal is via the brand’s “Subscribe-To-Own” program, which allows you full access to all of its plugins for a monthly fee. For just €15 a month (or €165 annually), you will own the perpetual licence for MCompleteBundle, which costs €2,099 if purchased.
