Melthaven vs dSL1200

Melthaven is a note-triggered phase shifter built to give guitarists and bassists organic, rhythmic movement that syncs to their playing, rather than a fixed LFO. It's also highly suited for a number of synth basses and sounds with sharp attacks and fast decays. Its analog-modeled OTA filters provide deep resonance and character, ranging from wah-like effects to complex, shifting formant textures or even experimental tones, like bubbling or hard, slappy effects. For bright, harmonically dense signals – such as saturated or overdriven tones and synthetic sounds – the effect range also includes growls and glistening sweeps. FOCUSED ON BASS & GUITARS The effect was specially developed to respond to the frequency response and transient peaks of electric guitars and basses. Every pluck, pop, or pick attack re-triggers the phase sweep, effectively turning your rhythmic timing into the "engine" of the effect. USING LOOPS? BREAK THEM OPEN Add various resonant effects like growls, or vintage bark / quacks "after the fact." This unlocks a level of control usually lost the moment a loop is bounced. Instead of being stuck with locked-in sound design, you can now reshape the envelope of any pre-recorded sample, breathing new life into your loop library. FOR SYNTHS & SOUND DESIGN: INPUT DEPENDENT Soft signals like pads or heavy/layered effects can produce wild, unpredictable responses. While such use is outside the plugin's core design, the smoothing feature can tame these re-triggers, yielding a flow that can feel organic and physical in its instability when operating beyond the plugin’s transient-focused comfort zone. MOVING BEYOND ENVELOPE FILTERS The plugin uses low-latency note detection paired with its own envelope generator and LFO, allowing sculpting and even reshaping each note’s modulation profile or filter envelope. It even detects notes that hide under a consistent signal amplitude when using a traditional envelope follower. BASE FEATURES: - Built around a versatile preset from the Pro version to suit a wide variety of applications - Controls: feedback & panoramic position, attack & hold timings, LFO Rate - Smoothing: from envelope shaping to creating a weighted, fluid response, giving note sequences a sense of physical momentum - Low-latency engine: preserves natural playing feel when used as a real-time effect PRO FEATURES - Requires Pro Edition Upgrade (In‑App Purchase): - Additional envelope parameters, several envelope flavors with pre-mapped control subsets - Pro presets encompassing both strong and milder effects, including the quintessential rubber bass - Enhanced stereo phaser modes & internal stereo re-imaging modulator (for formant-like effects and more) - Vintage-style phaser feedback that can optionally build or ramp with each note onset (non-rampable in the base version) - Instant visual feedback via an audio scope with dual-channel envelopes overlaid on the input waveform TECHNICAL NOTES: - Place before creative effects (unless experimenting). It can be used before or after harmonic processing (saturation, amp sims) depending on your preference - Response may vary on sustained notes with shifting harmonic content - Not optimized for upright bass due to its reliance on sharp signal transients - Note detection involves statistical signal processing and confidence intervals. Weak transients and phantom notes could lead to a loss of output determinism, i.e. sensitivity to changes in certain project settings - While it offers multiple layers of real-time control, Melthaven operates primarily as an automatic effect; for full manual filter manipulation, please refer to RealPhase, a separate app PLEASE NOTE: • The Pro Edition Upgrade is offered as a one‑time In‑App Purchase • An AUv3-compatible host is required to use this app • Suported sampling rates: 44.1, 48, 96 kHz

dSL1200 — Digital SL-1200 A professional DJ turntable simulator and music player for iPhone — a faithful real-time emulation of the most-used direct-drive deck in DJ history. Every part of the deck modeled in 3D, most touch-controllable. THE DECK, REBORN For nearly fifty years, one direct-drive turntable has been the de-facto industry standard in clubs, hip-hop, dance, and bedroom studios across the world. dSL1200 captures that deck — its motor, its slipmat, its quartz-locked strobe, its long-throw pitch fader, its tonearm tracking — as a working real-time simulation, not a skin or a sample player. REAL TOUCH, REAL SCRATCH Touch the vinyl and the platter responds the way a real one does. The motor keeps spinning underneath while you scratch, the slipmat couples back when you let go, and the audio rate follows your finger through every back-cue, body-trick rub, and crab. QUARTZ-LOCKED STROBE The multi-dot rim ring locks at exactly 33⅓ and 45 RPM through honest motor-rate-driven strobe physics. Pitch off center and the dots drift; lock to nominal and they freeze — the same visual feedback DJs have used to beat-match by eye for half a century. ACCURATE PITCH RANGE Faithful to the original long-throw pitch fader, with ±8% range, a center-detent snap, and strobe drift independent of motor rate. Beat-match by eye exactly the way the deck was designed for. YOUR MUSIC, ON THE DECK Plays MP3, FLAC, WAV, AIFF, and Apple Lossless files from your iOS Music library — any DRM-free track you've imported, ripped, or purchased. (DRM-protected Apple Music subscription streams cannot be played.) The vinyl label is generated from each track's metadata, with title and artist printed on the LP. LOOP PLAY FOR BREAKS Toggle loop mode and the track wraps with zero-sample-gap continuity — perfect for chopping b-boy breaks, drum loops, and battle samples. Cue points and back-cues across the loop boundary work transparently. AUv3 EFFECT RACK Load any installed Audio Unit Extension into a wet/dry parallel mix. Reverb, delay, filters, EQ, distortion — any AUv3 plugin you have on the device works. 3D TONEARM Drag the arm to cue, tap the cue lever to lift and drop, and watch it sweep from outer rim to inner spindle in real time with the audio playhead. The anti-skating dial, height adjustment, and counterweight are visually modeled on the 3D deck for fidelity to the original (not user-adjustable in this version). AUTHENTIC LIGHTING The pop-up inspection lamp lifts and lights with a warm bulb when toggled. A red strobe LED throws a sharp glowing arc across the platter rim — the same flashing red light that makes a working deck look alive in low-light club environments. 120 Hz METAL RENDERER Native 120 Hz on ProMotion devices, 60 Hz everywhere else, with PBR lighting, real-time reflections, vinyl groove geometry, and adaptive touch-density compensation so scratching feels identical regardless of refresh rate. ENGINEERED FOR DETAIL - End-to-end touch-to-audio response under 6 ms - Adaptive high-resolution resampler tuned for scratching - Streaming + ring buffer for tracks of any length - Slipmat physics, not state-machine fakery dSL1200 is an independent simulation product. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any manufacturer of physical turntable hardware. Any visual or behavioral resemblance to professional DJ equipment is offered as faithful artistic homage to a category of product that has shaped DJ culture for decades.
