Michael, I’ll send you an email.
Hi Ronnie
I am probaly barking up the wrong street,
but I want to be advised how to use the melatron software as an instrument ie playable
on a key board.
Can you suggest what I need please if this is
possible.
Thanks
Michael
Hi Michael,
You could use a free host like Cantabile Lite, or VSTHost.
Or use demo version of software like Reaper, or FL studio (the demo won’t allow you to save your project though).
Can anyone tell me as a complete numb
skull what keyboard and other software do
I need to use the melatron plug in freeware
software, cheap as possible.
Thanks people
You can still get it from Mediafire: http://www.mediafire.com/?cw3smm9zgyd
The Artifake website is no longer operational. Is there any way to get this plugin?
Here’s a little Meltron loop (2.73 MB, 24-bit .wav).
It’s the Strings with a bit of tape noise and tape delay.
