4.8

The Mela 4.8 update mostly focused on improving the internals of the app as well as added workarounds for some UI performance issues caused by hosts such as Logic Pro for Mac/iPad. Many changes have been made to the program code to future-proof Mela and make it easier to build new features on top. Of course, future versions will continue to improve the internals and there will be more optimisation work alongside new features. Note that this version dropped support for iOS 16 and macOS 13 to maximally optimise Mela for iOS 17 and macOS 14.

Drag-and-Drop Support and Other Modulation Enhancements:

It's now possible to view and edit a parameter's modulator sources and their modulation intensities from a single view. Simply tap its title/value area and select Edit Modulation from the pop-up menu.
The modulator modules now have a draggle target icon. Simply hold it for a split second and then drag and drop it onto a parameter's title/value area. The Edit Modulation popover will appear with the modulator added as one of the sources.
The modulator modules now sort module names alphabetically in the modulation target pop-up lists.

Other Changes:

Added the Replace item to the module's action menu. Now you can replace a module using one action instead of needing to remove an existing module followed by inserting another.
Added support for the Poly Aftertouch to the MIDI Source module. When the MIDI Source module is on an instrument lane it generates a polyphonic modulation signal.
The name of a lane is now generated based on the lane type as well as the index of that type. e.g. "Instrument 2" instead of "Lane 3".
Made animation durations shorter for various control interactions to make things feel snappier.
Renamed the Perform menu item to Edit Perform to match the Edit Modulation’s naming style.
Many other small interface tweaks and improvements.
Fixed an issue where the max values of Sync parameters weren’t set correctly internally.
Fixed the tempo text field not working correctly in standalone mode.
Added new presets.
