Hey Jon. Thanks for the video! We have some good news for you. You can actually disable the acoustic blob monitoring in Melodyne’s ‘Options’ menu, if you don’t like it! :)
Hi there... I am using reaper and when I add Melodyne Assistant it never loads the pitch blob... this track I had Melodyne before, just adding new copy... How do I force it to transfer audio from the track?
Hi! Can you help me? 😢 I use Reaper with Windows 11. I don't understand why when I load Melodyne, everything works but the VST window opens in rather small dimensions and does not let me enlarge it and the typical resizing triangle does not appear in the lower right corner Thank you very much 🙏
20:40 Gb for sure, for that little grace note! The long held note ("knooow") is a tad sharp there, which might be the actual problem you were hearing, more so than the grace note. The blob as a whole might be snapped to the correct note, but the pitch line shows that the beginning of that note is sharp.
I just change my DAW. I was on Studio one 5 and i have now reaper 6. I have melodyne studio 5.3 but reaper can not read the track when i put melodyne VST3 on it. I mean reaper read it but there is no sound. My recording system is Waves Digigrid D Is there anybody who have a solution or knows this problem ?
Thanks for the vid, Jon. Looks like everyplugin has Melodyne 5 Essential for about $43 USD right now, and it'll pair nicely with a Sweetwater upgrade to Assistant for about $79 USD. I've been considering this for a while, but watching actual workflow with it was super helpful!
Hi there... I have Melodyne assistance, using Reaper... after I imported a track into Melodyne, how do I reimport, if I have new takes on the track? I cannot find this, and I have looked! Even removing and re-adding Melodyne seems to keep the track data and not 'refresh' with the new recordings. Thank you.
I am visually impaired and I can make music with ripper. But I have a problem with Melodyne tuning. I can't click on the track with the keyboard (like you click with the mouse) Do you know how to tune with Melodyne with the keyboard? Is there a shortcut key?
Anybody know why my Melodyne is always like 1-2 seconds before the actual reaper playback and audio? The visuals in Melodyne are definitely in front. It is confusing as hell.
When you can't move the cutting points (the note separations) check in the options menu if you can tic "Show Note Separations". Then you can see the separation lines and move them right/left. But I don't have the Essentials version. If you can not find such option, you can make a new cut and erase the old cut, in both cases by double clicking.
Have you noticed that if you have a bunch of melodyne plugins in a project that it really bogs down Reaper (especially on saving or autosaving)? Muting the track doesn't help. I wonder if the ARA data starts to build up in the project file or something like that? Any ideas?
Anyone running into the issue of where opening Melodyne on a different track may display the notes/data of another tracker? Sometimes it will then play the wrong notes that don't correlate to the original wave file it is supposed to be interpreting?
Hey Jon! On the windows version of REAPER+Melodyne you can click and drag in the interface ( with any tool selected) while holding alt+ctrl to zoom without having to select the zoom tool. This is probably also possible in the Mac version? Perhaps with cmd+alt.
Why does my version of essential have less features... im so confused because its showing numbers and like 3 tools and its the newest version of melodyne 4 essential
I have to change my underwear in a good way! This is wonderfully fortunate, as I happen to love Reaper these days and invested in Melodyne 5 Assist, maybe Editor for poly....maybe. Thanks, this integration is serendipitous for me.
Back to Vielklang, but it's also acting weird in the newer Reaper versions. Stable but puts audio clips in really odd places inside the plug-in arranger, which it never used to do.
the immediate pitch reading is good, but problem is that if you add melodyne to a 2 hour long track from a concert recording it's gonna take ages to recognize and render... is it possible to make it work only for a region? or should I go splitting the track and apply melodyne only to the single item?
Hey man, is there any way at all to have Melodyne remember the pitch correction percentage when using the Pitch Macro? Older versions of Melodyne remembered from the first correction. Seems newer versions reset to 0% every new selected blob/vocal which I find insanely inconvenient. Thanks! Great vid, btw!
I was hoping to hear more about ara2 and reaper-specific things. There is a lot of unobvious things. For example, what happens with your edits if you move in time, move items to other tracks, switch active takes, etc. I can not determine by myself how exactly all it works, and the manual is not clear about it
That's a good point and I'll try to get back to answering those questions. My gut feeling is that it would be the same as the trim edit I showed. Any manual edits would be lost if you moved the audio to a different track or made a different take active. But none of those situations came up in my demo project so it didn't occur to me to test. I didn't feel like I covered anything, but by the end I had a pretty bad headache so wanted to wrap it up.
Is the issue about "Undo" because you use to save the undo history along with project file? I didn't understand what is the drawback, does the Reaper becomes laggy? Project file too big? Or Ram Memory usage too high?
Really useful video, thanks. Only just got to it! :-) Do you think there's likely to be a way of using Melodyne outside of the fx chain? So it can just be 'flattened', rendered independently of genuine effects? That would avoid all the faff you had to go through at the end there.
This video might be a bit outdated now because there have been dozens of tweaks to Melodyne and reaper since. You can use Melodyne on individual items or in the fx chain. You can freeze the track up to Melodyne in the fx chain.
No luck here. Latest updates of both products. Melodyne VST2 doesn't auto load track audio file. VST3 version auto-loads but then plays no audio and quickly crashes the host. Windows 7 x64.
Hello Jon, Hi Celemony !!! Melodyne Studio is my Life ! I use it so long in Sonar and now in Reaper. Question is... In Sonar I use it as region FX for clip. What the better way to use it in Reaper... as TakeFX or Track FX ?
it is perfect to me as it is...i just want my voice good enogh to sing karaoke in bars..so help me with that plase..i will do the karaoke so i will make my own record what i want to sing and playback on live at my mike at 20% volume 80 % of the pitch correction..
@@TheREAPERBlog That's so awesome, 13 years later and you're still teaching me things! Switched from Mac/Logic to PC/Reaper a little while ago so I'll be sure to check out more of your videos. You were the first result on DuckDuckGo, glad to see you're doing well my dude!
Totally off topic but do you think Reaper 6 with have Chord Track? I know you probably cant answer that if you're in the know but i couldn't resist. Plus that's the only area Reaper is significantly behind compare to the competition imo. They must be working on that. Also, it feels weird to buy v. 5.97. Fells like v6 could be out any day now...
helo my friend.. do you can't making a chord track in Reaper easily? I can did it since long time ago. Making chord in Reaper is more easy than cubase chord track.
Yea but I'm talking about a chord track that work at the project level. A fully integrated chord track like Cubase and Studio 1. A missing chord track in Reaper is not a deal breaker for me anyway. But i feel that's where Reaper is behind. and i would very much like to see this implemented
@@MustacheVerra may be you don't know how to do it. You can create chord progression easily and faster ini Reaper at the project level. I have brain disorder. I can't remember about music theory and harmony. I can't work with complicate steps. So I have to make it easily in Reaper.
Hey Jon. Thanks for the video! We have some good news for you. You can actually disable the acoustic blob monitoring in Melodyne’s ‘Options’ menu, if you don’t like it! :)
Thank you so much! I must have been looking for a mute button or something and didn't see it.
I want a vst that turns any voice into that robotic voice
Any chance you could work with Bitwig on getting ARA working? : )

Just curious why you wouldn't first turn off the vocal FX when working on the vocals in Melodyne?
Finally Celemony came up with an innovation worth the upgrading price. Now I just wish you could use mouse wheel for zooming like in Reaper.
you can... hold down CTRL

20:45 - Definitely originally a Gb. However, the F actually sounds better IMO.
Thanks for the news about ARA2! Now it's realy comfortable to use.
Anyone running into the issue of where opening Melodyne on a different track may display the notes/data of another tracker? Sometimes it will then play the wrong notes that don't correlate to the original wave file it is supposed to be interpreting?
When i put the melodyne on my fx, doesnt appear in the program :( what can i do?

anyone know what to do when ARA2 doesn't work?
Why does my version of essential have less features... im so confused because its showing numbers and like 3 tools and its the newest version of melodyne 4 essential
Does it work only for individual tracks or does it also work with vocal TAKES? #Reaper #VocalComping #Melodyne #ARA
can be track or take fx. your preference
Help!! when I use Melodyne in my project made by midi samplers don't work in the track of real voice, but in a new project yes, what could e wrong?
I have to change my underwear in a good way! This is wonderfully fortunate, as I happen to love Reaper these days and invested in Melodyne 5 Assist, maybe Editor for poly....maybe. Thanks, this integration is serendipitous for me.
Back to Vielklang, but it's also acting weird in the newer Reaper versions. Stable but puts audio clips in really odd places inside the plug-in arranger, which it never used to do.
Why when i hold the note, i dont listen the sustain? :(
Oh man thanks for this video! Is essentials the cheapest one?
Yep ! :)
I'm pretty new to reaper - could anyone tell me what theme he is using? Looks very efficient.
V5 Default nitpicky edition with some of my own changes.
I normally do "Apply FX as new take" for pitch stuff, but I see if I do that with melodyne it makes a new set of blobs that look way off

Is there a way to edit multiple parts of the track simultaneously? Such as editing all the choruses at the same time?

Dave, could you please contact support@celemony.com for assistance with Melodyne?
Stable so far in Reaper 5.978 now, VST3 version.
@@dperry913MusicTracks That’s great to hear! Thanks for the follow-up.
Definitely G flat. Thanks for this awesome tutorial! Very informative.
Oh man, it's an informative video but the guy should've wrote a script. Sooo many "ummm" and "uhhhh"s. It also takes forever to get to the point.
I've not used melodyne before... where is the 'transfer button' please??

Thank you so much for this tutorial Jon!
Hello Jon, Hi Celemony !!! Melodyne Studio is my Life ! I use it so long in Sonar and now in Reaper. Question is... In Sonar I use it as region FX for clip. What the better way to use it in Reaper... as TakeFX or Track FX ?
You can use either. Take does only the one item but track has access to all audio on the track.
@@TheREAPERBlog But if I choose take FX It is possible to move and copy/paste Takes with Melodyne's edits in it.
Waiting for the opinions of the @Celemony
