MELDA CM PLUCK

We have a free Melda plugin this issue, but while getting it, you could end up with 39 more! Time to enter the MSoundFactory

We have something a little different for you this issue, and hopefully the first of many free plugins we give away on the Melda MSoundFactory plugin platform. What MSoundFactory allows you to do – as well as playing sounds from many Melda and thirdparty plugins – is create your own bespoke instruments and effects using the modular process we detail from p38. Melda have created CM Pluck for us which we’re giving you this issue, but by the end of this tutorial you will not only get MSoundFactory Player to use it with, but a bundle of free Melda effects – some 40 in total!

First, you’ll need to install the free MSoundFactory Player to play CM Pluck – think of that as like Kontakt Player – but it’s easy to do and once you have that installed, you will be able to play future plugins that we give you for the MSF format and of course any released by any other companies. And also, while you download that free Player, you might as well download Melda’s MFreeFXBundle which gets you another 39 cracking free effects plugins.

Next, and another free bonus, MSoundFactory Player comes with a huge amount of other free content including MSoundFactory Essential (a massive 3.1GB set of samples), MDrummer Essentials (all the electronic drum sounds you need), MonasteryGrand (a lovely piano instrument), plus a load more sample options should you want them.

The tutorial over the next few pages shows you how to get all of this free content and how to run and install CM Pluck.
