Xynthia2 OS - the new Music Operating System from M-Live
Within Merish5 runs Xynthia2, the New Operating System developed by M-Live based on the feedback we received from the thousands of customers who use Merish5 every night on stage. We collected all the needs and analysed them to check their feasibility and expand the functions of Merish5. In addition, we updated the Sounds table with hundreds of new timbres and drum set ups. We improved and expanded the Patches to be used with the Master Keyboard, and made many Merish5 functions easier.
Thanks to Xynthia2 Merish5 is a powerful sound generator that can also be controlled from a USB Master Keyboard, with optimised Midi sound, complete multitasking of the various work sessions, expansion of the Digital Mixer part with control of any Mixing and E parameters, and many other features that you will discover while using your Merish5.The new Sound of Merish5
Merish5 includes all sound that were in the earlier versions, but the most part of them have been re-mastered, re-sampled and optimized, thanks to the sound memory that is now ten times larger than before. The sound bank of Merish5 lives up to the requirements of professional live musicians.
Merish5 can be played also using an USB Master Keyboard that connected to the machine will be powered and ready to play the internal database of Merish5. An USB Master Keyboard and Merish5 are the perfect match for those who desire awesome sounds and uncompromising features in controlling and managing of your music libraries.
NEWS:Sound update version 2019, New Sounds and Special Sound
In some of these audio samples you can listen to the function “Special Sound” which enriches the standard MIDI files with distortions, flanger, phaser and other effects that are not covered by GM/GS standard.
What you are going to listen to in these first audio samples is a simple standard MIDI backing track played by Merish 5 with the overlapped original vocal track of the singer. We think that the effect is incredible!
Have fun.
