Melodyne Studio 5 Tutorial - Editing Vocal Stacks

[@RXHMND]

Killer video man, but one thing that these Melodyne tutorials don't have: how do you actually activate the multitrack feature? Do you put the plugin to a group bus? Do you access Melodyne through the sampler editor? Do you put the plugin in each track? I'm trying to figure this out but no one is explaining how to this works

[@Mr_Audio]

@@RXHMNDwhat version of melodyne do you have?

@@Mr_Audio Melodyne Studio 5.4

[@Mr_Audio]

​@@RXHMNDokay so you would load melodyne on each track Then after that at the top left there's a button that looks like there's a bunch of tracks. Click that button. It should pop out your track window Then you would want to record all of them in at the same time. At least that's how I do it. So you'd want to have the record button selected on all of them. You can just click on one of them and hold shift and click on the last one and all of them should be selected to record Once you record them all in then you can edit them. How you please If you need more help we can set up a one-on-one zoom call And this is how it works in Ableton. Other daws can be slightly different

[@RXHMND]

@@Mr_Audio Ah, so the plugin needs to be on every track and still needs to be transferred. I thought there was an easier way without needing to do that and just have all tracks automatically from the start. Thanks for the input

[@Mr_Audio]

Some daws are ARA compatible and that means once you put the plugin on the track it should already be transferred in there and any change that you make in the plug-in will also change the waveform in the arrangement view of the daw But Ableton does not have ARA compatibility

this was a better video than many others on KZbin.. nobody shows how to work on stacks. so really thank you. I ll subscribe now cause hoping to see more useful content from you. also thank you for not talking the entire video instead of showing what supposed to be done. many thanks.

[@Mr_Audio]

I have another pitch correction with melodyne video out now it probably goes a bit more in depth than this one. kzbin.info/www/bejne/noTXZ6iQhZt9fdU

[@cekirdekci32]

[@Mr_Audio]

You're very welcome friend!

[@kbimm]

Absolutely killer track and great tutorial!

[@Mr_Audio]

The track will be released soon within the next month or so It's been just sitting on the shelf done for a little over a year now...

[@kbimm]

That’s exciting to hear! Get it out and let me (us) know! 🤗

[@zachpitt9249]

I love using melodyne man for tightening the vocals and make it sound perfect

[@Mr_Audio]

Been using melodyne since 2008. Wouldn't dream of using anything else. What other plugins do you like to use?

[@zachpitt9249]

@@Mr_Audio its great man same here melodyne is my no. 1 tool for tuning vocals btw i use waves plugins for compressors

[@Mr_Audio]

I mainly use Izotope and Plugin Alliance plugins. You should check out analog obsession plugins they all have oversampling and they are free but if you like them you should donate. He truly creates great plugins. Check them out! www.patreon.com/analogobsession

[@katiedelcourt3521]

love the song they're editing- is it released somewhere I can listen to it?

[@Mr_Audio]

I actually haven't released this song yet. It's been sitting on my hard drive. I don't have any album artwork to go with it. But it is finished. If you like you can email me and I'll give you a private SoundCloud link. [e-mail] But until I have money for a release promotion strategy and some album artwork, on my hard drive is where it'll sit unfortunately.

[@FrederickLewisDeAngelis]

Good video. Very helpful.

[@TheRTM]

Can someone help. I'm having an issue with my melodyne 5.3.1.. My tempo window (button) is missing??? Did they remove it???

[@Mr_Audio]

I don't think so. Can you send me a screenshot? [e-mail]

[@TheRTM]

Thanks for getting back to me👍 A tech rep from Celemony actually got back to me via email. It turns out the reason my tempo button wasn't visible was because the plug-in window wasn't fully expanded. Simply grabbing the lower right corner and dragging it revealed the tempo button.

[@cekirdekci32]

i got melodyne assitant finally and back to this video. i figured i should have just bought melodyne 5 cause vocalign creates artificial effects when I line the stack vocals, did not give me the result I needed;/ i should ve invested in melodyne 5 instead. ;/

[@Mr_Audio]

I never liked VocAlign

[@PeterMusician]

Thank you!

[@hacksparamusicos]

The key of the song is D mixolydian or G major, not D major :P Very useful demonstration! Thank you very much.

[@Mr_Audio]

Yeah with not enough information or too much information Melodyne can screw up I'm still learning music theory, well I'm much better now, but when I made this video I had forgotten most I learned in high school cuz that was a long time ago

[@hacksparamusicos]

@@Mr_Audio don't worry, very useful video!

[@Mr_Audio]

Thank you!

[@ts4gv]

Does Melodyne ever list modes? because if not, D major is a better approximation to it than G imo, despite the fact that only G shares all the notes kinda like the Sweet Home Alabama debate

[@Mr_Audio]

Melodyne does do modes but it's some of the advanced features. Maybe I'll do a video on that in the future.

[@activemusickid]

Good video, BUT, I'm over here trying to take notes... and sometimes I can't hear what you're saying because the volume drifts back! For example, at 10:48-10:50 you said, "the lead vocal looks like that, let's make that one *blub blub blub* (inaudible)..." You have potential to have a good channel, but you got to fix that. If people can't understand what your saying in certain parts, they're going to remember that. Yes, there's a lot of good information in here, but it has to be presented better.

[@Mr_Audio]

This was one of the first 10 videos I did. I think I was new

[@activemusickid]

And for the love of GOD, when you're speaking during your tutorials, USE A MICROPHONE so we can hear every word !!! Thank you

[@Mr_Audio]

Noted. I'm glad you like the vid. I have a better melodyne video out. But I plan to do a stacks video again.

[@activemusickid]

@@Mr_Audio I do like the video yes! Can you provide a link for the new melodyne video? Thanks. And as for the update on the stacks, has your process changed?

[@Mr_Audio]

Pretty much the same. Just a little more streamlined but yeah let me look for the link and I'll drop it
