IMO, Bit deserves all the recognition he can get. He's been one of the most knowledgeable guys here that's very openly offered help to everyone. I hope Melda gives him a fat check for his services/reviews.

Smart move on their part. His article explains the product much better than their marketing material.

Nice find, Larry! I was unaware of that mention - not being a Facebooker myself.
Sadly, no checks are involved. But maybe I can score a guided tour of Prague if I'm ever there.

We should lobby to get Bit the whole Melda Bundle...it would be to their benefit... they'd get better marketing then their people could ever put together!!!

Melda stuff has a lot of impressive strengths. Very cool tools.
They have two wildly poor aspects. Their interface and their marketing and demos.
Bit explains the importance of their features so well. It's a gift to all of us.
Two internal 2TB SSDs laptop stuffed with Larry's deals and awesome tools. Studio One is the cat's meow as a DAW now that I've migrated off of Sonar. Using BandLab Cakewalk just to grab old files when migrating songs.

Not saying bit doesn't deserve it, but if Mela "gave" him the whole bundle, wouldn't that affect his credibility as a journalist?
I mean he may not want that. So before we go lobby....

Good point, Grem. Credibility and trust is everything, whether as a reviewer, talking to your boss or giving advice to your kids. Whenever my integrity is called into question, it's like a physical blow to the gut for me. I hate it. Especially if they're right.
Which is not to say I'd refuse Melda's total bundle if it was offered. There are a lot of goodies in there I haven't even tried yet. Vojtech is a pretty cool guy and I don't think he'd ever put any pressure on me. Nevertheless, I've already moved on to other things for upcoming issues.

That is an excellent article! I've been using Pro Audio DSP's DSM and it is similar, but Melda's MSD allows much more control since practically every parameter can be adjusted. The ability to change the frequency curve with the mouse is something I often wish could be done with DSM. Same with the ability to expand particular frequencies that are below the threshold, but that can be somewhat accomplished by putting an eq in front of it. I hope they will have this in one of their 50% off sales.

My daughter mostly advises me. :-) Any sound going the other way plays like a soft background pad. Hopefully in key, but so soft it wouldn't matter if it wasn't. :-)

Ummmm, yeah, that's why professional journalists are bound by strict rules about accepting gifts. Now, if Bitflipper wanted to be the Dan Worrall of Melda products -- which he would be very good at, I might add -- that's a different thing. In any case, Bit's series of articles in SoundBytes have all been very good reads, essential for anyone wanting to get the most out of those plugins. Keep up the good work, Bit man! Cheers, Eddie

I know exactly what you mean, Geoff! Sometimes it's like talking to a rock. But rest assured that at least some of it gets through.
Mark Twain said something to the effect that "when I was 18 I thought my father knew nothing...at age 21 I was amazed at what he'd learned in three years".

Awesome article, good job Bit! Will definitively get this when it comes at 50% of the price. Sure would have wanted a couple of audio examples though. Anything out there? But will install the demo tonight.

I agree, metz. I had intended to include audio examples but just ran out of time before the deadline. I'd still like to do that. Vojtech does have a good video on using MSpectralDynamics for noise reduction, but not for spectral ducking, which I think is the plugin's coolest application.
At the moment I'm occupied writing reviews for no less than five more products, four of which are slated for the November issue - and I'm still only in the research phase. In my spare time I'm compiling a database of every compressor known to man for a future opus. I even passed on Melda's new synth because I knew that would be a bottomless pit of exploration and best referred to someone else with more experience reviewing (and figuring out) synthesizers.
