WHAT’S NEW ✨

5 new visual effects

Discover an expanded realm of visual possibilities with the addition of five new effects.

Tint

With this effect you can easily change the overall color and tone of your visuals, creating various stylistic effects or adjusting the mood of your scenes.

The most fundamental control is the “Set black to” and “Set white to” options, which determine the mapping of the darkest and lightest areas of your footage to the tint color. By choosing different colors for these options, you can achieve interesting color grading effects or create unique stylized looks in your live streams and recordings.

💡
Pro Tip
Explore the possibilities by combining Tint with other creative effects, such as Chroma key and Glow styles, applying distinct settings to duplicate layers. With some powerful combinations, you’ll have the ability to create mesmerizing visuals that will leave a lasting impression.

Transform

Metamorphosis? Adjust the scale and opacity of any layer in Meld. For example, you can reduce the opacity of your logo by 50% to achieve the perfect transparent overlay. You can also go even further by getting creative with duplicated layers, adjusting their opacity, and experimenting with various effect combinations. The possibilities are endless!

Fractal noise

Experience a dynamic interplay of patterns and textures with Fractal noise!

By applying this effect, you can generate complex, organic patterns reminiscent of natural phenomena like smoke, fire, or swirling clouds. You can adjust parameters such as scale, complexity, contrast, and fine-tune the appearance of the effect.

Fractal noise empowers you to add depth, richness, and an otherworldly quality to your scenes, making it a valuable effect for creating atmospheric backgrounds, stylized textures, and mesmerizing layers.

💡
Pro Tip
To maximize its potential, consider combining this effect with other color filters such as TintGradient, and Tritone.

Shift channels

Shift channels offers powerful capabilities for manipulating and transforming color channels within your scenes and layers. With this effect, you can dynamically alter the position and arrangement of the red, green, blue, and alpha channels, allowing for unique and creative visual transformations.

Shift channels capability opens up a wide range of possibilities for creating intriguing visual effects, such as swapping colors or distorting the appearance of specific channels.

Threshold

Threshold is a useful effect for creating high-contrast, black-and-white images by isolating specific brightness values. This effect can be applied to achieve various creative outcomes. It can be used to isolate specific areas of an image based on brightness, create a stylized black-and-white aesthetic, enhance edge detection, or generate a high-contrast look.

Check this combination of Tint and Threshold:


Meld Studio offers a diverse collection of effects for you to explore, like blur, shadows, color filters, distortion, and more.
