MIDI Monitor

MIDI Monitor free studio-tool by rs-met

MIDI Monitor is a free studio tools VST plugin developed by rs-met. Compatible OS(s): Windows 64b.

MIDI Monitor is a plugin which shows you the incoming MIDI messages. Because some hosts treat instrument- and effect-plugIns differently (and do not allow plugging one kind of plugin into a slot of a different kind), there is an ‘instrument’ and an ‘effect’ version of the plugin to make it pluggable everywhere. The MIDI-events are passed through unchanged, the same holds for any incoming audio signal.

MFreqShifter

MFreqShifter is a free frequency shifter VST, VST3, Audio Unit, AAX plugin developed by MeldaProduction. Compatible OS(s): Windows 64b, macOS.

MFreqShifter is a versatile frequency shifter, which unlike pitch-shifters doesn’t keep harmonic relationships and can provide everything from mild stereo expansion to complete destruction.

Features:

  • Continuously adjustable oscillator shape – every oscillator is defined by a mix of predefined oscillator shapes, custom waveforms edited using the MeldaProduction Envelope System (MES), step-sequencer and several methods for algorithmic post processing.
  • Up to 8 channels surround processing – the plug-in can handle not only mono and stereo signals, but also up to 8 channels of surround audio, making it ideal for audio production for movies, games, etc.
  • Full randomization – using a single button you can generate completely new settings. By clicking the button you can walk through the billions of possible settings and find the best one for you. And if that’s too much, you can just hold ctrl and MFreqShifter will only slightly modify existing settings.
  • Adjustable up-sampling 1x-4x to minimize aliasing and get an even clearer sound.
  • Easy-to-use user interface. You can easily change all values, fine-tune each control in multiple ways. Easy orientation in a standardized GUI, textual editing and smooth visualization with almost unlimited zooming are standard.
  • Automatic synchronization to host tempo – every oscillator and modulator in the plug-in can automatically synchronize to the host providing as natural a sound as possible while not offending other tracks.
  • MIDI controllers with MIDI learn – you can map any parameter to any MIDI controller or MIDI keyboard and control it realtime or record and automate it.
  • Optimized for SSE and SSE2 processors.
  • Global preset management – using a title button you can save your settings (which are shared on the computer) so you can easily access these in other songs.
