frequency shifter
MFreqShifter is an extremely versatile frequency shifter, which unlike pitch-shifters doesn't keep harmonic relationships and can provide everything from mild stereo expansion to complete destruction.
* Continuously adjustable oscillator shape - every oscillator in our plugins is defined by a mix of predefined oscillator shapes, custom waveforms edited using our MeldaProduction Envelope System (MES), step-sequencer and several methods for algorithmic postprocessing. It is the most advanced approach for defining oscillator shapes.
* Up to 8 channels surround processing - our plugins can handle not only mono and stereo signals, but also up to 8 channels of surround audio, making them ideal for audio production for movies, games etc.
* Full randomization - using a single button you can generate completely new settings. By clicking the button you can walk through the billions of possible settings and find the best one for you! And if that's too much, you can just hold ctrl and MFreqShifter will only slightly modify existing settings.
* Adjustable up-sampling 1x-4x to minimize aliasing and get an even clearer sound.
* Extremely advanced and easy-to-use user interface - our products are always designed to enhance the workflow. You can easily change all values, fine-tune each control in multiple ways. Easy orientation in a standardized GUI, textual editing and smooth visualization with almost unlimited zooming are standard in all of our plugins. Moreover our plugins are the world first (and still the only ones), which support resizable and stylable GUI's.
* Automatic synchronization to host tempo - every oscillator and modulator in the plug-in can automatically synchronize to the host providing as natural a sound as possible while not offending other tracks.
* MIDI controllers with MIDI learn - you can map any parameter to any MIDI controller or MIDI keyboard and control it realtime or record and automate it.
* Very fast, optimized for SSE and SSE2 processors.
* Global preset management - using a title button you can save your settings (which are shared on the computer) so you can easily access these in other songs.
* Fully automatable.

Huge memory and GUI optimizations, new knob based interfaces.
Each oscillator can now also be controlled using harmonics instead of shape.
Added "double" envelope shape type.
Analyzer & sonogram can now optionally be enabled even when the GUI is hidden.
A-H presets now send automation when changed.
MIDI note controllers now react on pitch-bend immediately.
Added feedback phase invert and saturation for phasers.
Added second tape mode for flangers.
Added knob mode for most plugins, which turns their slider based GUI into knob based one.
MSpectralDynamics can now capture the threshold curve based on the input signal.
MDynamics and MMultiBandDynamics weren't showing correct shapes for upwards expander.
Added IR phase invert and left/right delays for MMultiBandConvolution.
Fix: Drag & drop wave file for analysis didn't work in MAutoEqualizer.
Fix: MAutoEqualizer could crash under specific circumstances when automating gain.

MFreqShifter 5.01 compatibility update changes
Surround is now off by default, because it causes problems with some hosts (known are FL Studio and Studio One). If you use surround processing, please enable "Activate surround" in the plugin settings, it will enable all plugins at once.
Plugins can now access additional volumes on Mac OS X.
Band editor in equalizers doesn't close when clicking on a band type any more and shows filter steepness.
Fix: Plugins could crash in AU when requested mono to stereo configuration.
Fix: Styles are now moved to user data folder, because some computers have permission problem with all-users directory.
Fix: MFilter caused massive gain in parallel mode in some special circumstances.
Fix: Analyzer in equalizers didn't show correct spectrum if activated after upsampling change.
Fix: MMultiBandConvolution didn't remember custom paths correctly on Mac OS X.
MFreqShifter 5.00 changes
Dual user interfaces - most commercial plugins now contain 2 interfaces, a simple default one with several predefined modes, but just a few controls, and an advanced one. This makes the plugins not only extremely versatile, but also quick and easy-to-use.
Unique new analysis engine for MAnalyzer and all equalizers - new analysis engine is faster, more accurate and provides a whole new range of unique features, such as micro-sonograms, full sonograms, super-resolution (providing high resolution for low frequencies keeping speed for the high frequencies), prefilters (for loudness curves) or deharmonization (for easier fundamental frequencies analysis).
Plugins are now categorized under VST and VST3 - with more than 55 plugins it started to be hard to find the plugin you need, therefore they are now categorized by purpose to Dynamics, EQs etc. With VST3 they also fit the standardized structure in your host (if it supports it).
Added next/previous preset buttons.
Added A/B switch to swap between previous two A-H presets.
Added 0% & 100% modes for global dry/wet for all multiband plugins.
Increased accuracy when dragging Q in equalizers.
Added "use first parameter's range" mode for modulators and multiparameters.
Added a few shortcuts to control zooming in graph editors.
Added global surround switch useful to make the plugins more compatible with some hosts.
Added resizing arrow for resizable windows.
Added smooth 2 envelope point mode.
Upsampling range extended to 16x.
Multiband peakmeters can now show different channels in surround.
Optimized preset and settings storage.
Preset exchange is now enabled by default, can be disabled in Settings.
MFreqShifter and MMultiBandFreqShiter algorithms modified to prevent clicking when changing frequency shift from positive to negative.
Fix: Resizing windows with splitters changed ratio of the splitters.
Fix: Resizable windows were sometimes showing arrow cursor over a position, where the window couldn't be resized.
Fix: Demoversions with sidechain were crashing occasionally.
Fix: Plugins with sidechain were occasionally crashing on Mac AU.
Fix: A Windows message was poping when trying to access an unavailable drive.
Fix: Upsampling latency wasn't reported correctly.
Fix: Improved automation support with Ableton Live.
Fix: Plugins didn't store bypass state.
Fix: Multiparameters in switch mode were showing inverted state.
Fix: Alt+Click in a graph editor caused maximum zoom, which is now disabled.
Fix: Units in zoomed mode were sometimes showing invalid grid lines.
Fix: Temp gain wasn't updated when automated/modulated.
