From the Portal Demo Song blog, where this trick was used: Bill Jackson – Cakewalk: “So, it’s a pretty simple trick in Melodyne. Jimmy sent me the raw vocal track as a .wav. I opened that file in Melodyne Editor and typed CTRL+A to select all. I grabbed the “Pitch Modulation Tool,” which is primarily used to manipulate vibrato. I double-clicked the selection to eliminate all vibrato, creating flat lines. This resulted in sudden robot voice. Then, I carefully listened through and adjusted especially unnatural sounding words and phrases by selecting them explicitly and using the pitch modulation tool to click and drag up, introducing a subtle amount of vibrato back in.”

You have to have the full "Editor" version to do this?

for those who are upgrading from X2, V-vocal will also do this effect and will work in X3

No, you shouldn't.

I'm obviously a noob at Melodyne, but the only things I seem to be able to do with Essential is move notes up and down and back and forth. Where's the "Pitch Modulation Tool"?

I recant what i said. I got that effect using the demo of editor. I just tried again with Essential and did not see an obvious way to do it. Sorry about that.

Hmmm, you may be right I've only really been using editor as well. I dont have it on this system to test right now.

Trying to do it now with no luck. If that changes I will post instructions. I do stand by the fact it is easy to do with V-vocal for migrating X2 users

Yeah, Essential isn't as powerful as V-vocal, but it sounds damn good! I think I'll be using both.

 That blows was looking forward to taking advantage of that feature, V-Vocal takes to much work to get that effect right and I was eye balling buying Melodyne until I saw X3 features. I got X3 blue balls now oh well getting ready to buy X3 now still

Melodyne Editor isn't cheap, but for what it does I believe it's worth the cost. It's probably the single most expensive plugin purchase I've ever made. And I am soooo looking forward to using it with ARA in X3.
