Meld Studio is a powerful tool that allows you to compose live audio and video layers into a visually rich canvas complete with video effects, and more. With Meld, you can stream live on Twitch, YouTube, or any RTMP server. Even if you’re not a streamer, Meld is great for recording podcasts, screen recordings, product demos, mixing live audio sources, and much more. You can grab it here.

We are excited to introduce another great Meld Studio update – version 0.3.0.2. This release brings some exciting improvements and new user-requested features.

Text file support

We added a useful feature to our Text layer – you can now read content directly from a text file. This new feature allows you to incorporate external text content directly into your scenes.

If you’re using any scoreboard app, you can showcase real-time scoreboards, timers, and other dynamic information during live streams or video productions, whether it’s for esports events, sports broadcasts, game streams, podcasts, presentations, or any other information you wish to share with your audience.

You have the flexibility to customize the text’s font, size, text color, background color, and screen position.

Pro Tip

You can use the capabilities of AppleScript and Automator to integrate text files into Meld Studio. With these tools, you can perform various automated tasks and design custom workflows, such as automatically updating the current song.

Markdown support

We’ve added a new layer which allows you to use the Markdown markup language for formatting text. You can conveniently format text directly within the Inspector panel. This simplifies text styling and enhances your content creation experience for presentations and dynamic use in your productions.
