Mela 7.5: MIDI Echo Part 3 – Modulate Feedback Path
Mela 7.5: MIDI Echo Part 3 – Modulate Feedback Path This video demonstrates how the MIDI channel number used for event tracking in the feedback path can be repurposed as a modulation source using the MIDI Source module. It also shows how the Mod Steps module can map channel numbers to precise Mod signal values. ~ About Mela ~ Mela is a modular music

Sequence Notes with Mela's Note Event Module
Sequence Notes with Mela's Note Event Module This video demonstrates new features of the Note Event module introduced in Mela 7.3. The Velocity parameter now supports the value 0. When set to 0, no new notes are generated. With the Vel 0 parameter set to "Off", changing velocity from a non-zero value to 0 generates a note-off event. This makes

Mela 7.3 improves the Note Event module. Velocity now supports 0, letting you stop notes and generate note-offs via modulation for powerful note sequencing.

Mela 7.3 Update: Reuse Presets as Modules, Note Pulse & Note Event Improvements | Nikolozi — Artist & Engineer Mela 7.3 makes presets much more reusable. Presets can now be inserted as modules, making it easy to move structures between presets or build larger setups from existing designs. This turns presets into reusable building blocks that can live inside other presets, while preserving their full nested structure, parameter values, and modulation routing. You can drag any module out of Mela to export it as a standalone preset, drag presets in from Finder or Files to insert them as modules, drag modules between Mela instances, and drop presets or modules onto the User or custom preset groups to save them there.

The module makes it easy to automate Mela parameters by simply automating MIDI CC messages that CC Modulator uses to modulate the desired parameters.

I use Logic Pro as an example, which has some unusual behaviour when it comes to parameter automation, and show how to work around it. Most importantly, I demonstrate how the CC Modulator can help in these scenarios.
