What Melda Rewind Is For
Designed for reverse-oriented sound design, Rewind excels at creating nostalgic pads, poetic bells, cinematic drones, and eerie textures for electronic music, ambient, and scoring. Its approach combining reversed granularity and tape simulation allows you to sculpt retrospective movements, spectral transitions, and ghostly rhythms, from subtle to radical.
Main Features
Reverse Granular Engine
Choose from 128 sources and let the engine break the audio into grains played backwards. Refine the material with Position, Density, Size, Width, Chaos, Detune, and a Dust control to add vintage crackle.
Two-Stage Lo-Fi Module
Add character with "Digital" (crush, texture) and "Analog" (warmth, saturation, slight instability). Place the processing pre-filter to sculpt it, or post-filter to tint the overall output.
Versatile Filter and Dedicated Envelopes
A multi-mode filter (Low-Pass, Band-Pass, High-Pass, Notch) controlled by two separate ADSR envelopes (amplifier and filter) allows you to go from sharp plucks to evolving pads.
"Reverse" Tape Loop
Synchronized capture and reverse playback with Rewind control, Half/Double octave variations, and realistic artifacts via Age and Wash. Regen maintains evolving loops while Fade ensures smooth transitions.
Modular FX and Master Section
Lush Chorus, Rotary, Metallic Flanger, tempo-synced Delay, and spacious Reverb, all reorderable at will. The Master section offers 3-band EQ, high-pass/low-pass filters, stereo management (Width/Mono), Compressor, Saturate, and Maximize to finalize the level.
Quick Results and Exploration
The Intro screen gathers essential controls (Rewind, Digital, Analog) and allows browsing through the 128 sources. The dice icon launches an intelligent randomizer to instantly discover new timbres.

Questions frequently asked
Is Melda Rewind compatible with macOS and Windows?
Compatibility covers macOS 10.14 Mojave or later in 64-bit, on Intel, AMD, and Apple Silicon processors. On Windows, Windows 10 or 11 64-bit with an Intel/AMD processor supporting SSE2 is required. A 64-bit host digital audio workstation is necessary.
How many sound sources are included?
The reversed granular engine provides access to 128 sources, browsable from the Intro screen.
How to create evolving reversed loops?
The tape loop includes Rewind, Half/Double, Age, Wash, Regen, and Fade controls. Regen maintains the loop’s evolution, while Fade enables smoother transitions.
What effects are available in Melda Rewind?
The effects suite includes Chorus, Rotary, Flanger, tempo-synced Delay, and Reverb. The order of these modules can be changed depending on the desired processing.
Can the sound be finalized directly within the plugin?
A Master section gathers a 3-band EQ, high-pass and low-pass filters, as well as Width/Mono settings. Compressor, Saturate, and Maximize complete the output level management.
