How to bounce a melodyne track

After using Vvocal all these years I decided to give Melodyne a wack. My question is, How Do You Bounce A Melodyne Track. In Vvocal, you just highlighted and bounce. I saw something on Melodyne that leads me to believe you need to export this to a wave and reinsert the track back in the song. This seems like terrible work flow. Is there a way to bounce it where it is like vvocal?

For both VVocal and Melodyne, it is quite simple: just right clip on the tuned clip and choose "bounce to clip." Done in seconds.

Re: How to bounce a melodyne track 2015/01/21 09:16:45 (permalink)
Thanks but bounce works for vvocal but not Melodyne. When I bounce Melodyne, It appears to bounce, but I still need Melodyne in the fx bin and turned on. Should I assume that I do nothing after I edit with Melodyne and just export when project is done. I also notice then, that it would be important to make a copy of track prior to editing. Please advise if my thought are correct, or if there is a better way to bounce or render a melodyne track

I wouldn't put Melodyne in the FX Bin. In the TV, select clip, and open Melodyne as a 'Region FX' clip, process, then bounce to clip.

+1. There are also advantages to using it as a Region FX, as Melodyne can take advantage of the Audio Random Access protocol.

I always put Melodyne in the FX Bin for the entire track.  The only reason I do it that way is because when I use it just in a clip, I can't hear the notes when I'm moving/adjusting/tuning them.   Unless I'm missing something, the only way you can hear the notes when you edit them is by putting Melodyne in the FX Bin.

As for bouncing.... I'll just freeze the track after I'm done with Melodyne, then I can move or copy the frozen track to another track.  Sometimes I do that for creating harmonies.

What version of SONAR are you running. I can hear the notes just fine when moving notes around as a region effect. This was the case for me in both X3 and Platinum.
 
I can try to reproduce this for you later this afternoon if you still have issues. Keep us posted.

I'm using X3 Producer.  And maybe I'm using the wrong terminology, but I meant when you insert Melodyne into a clip, (clip fx?), I don't hear any sounds when moving the "blobs" from note to note.  I only hear them when I use Melodyne as a track fx.  
As I said, it's possible I'm doing something wrong, but that has been the results for me.

Do you mean that you right-click a clip and insert Melodyne as a clip effect? If this is what you are doing then try doing it this way...
Drag a selection or even select an entire clip. Right-click>Region Effect>Melodyne.
It works best as a region effect. Try it out.

Shortcuts are your friend. Select whichever clip or part of a clip you want to edit, then hit CTRL+M to watch the magic appear.

Re: How to bounce a melodyne track 2017/03/05 20:48:26 (permalink)
I'm hoping someone remembers how to do things in the old world of X1 and Melodyne Assistant.
 
The good news is that I resolved the crashing problem (it seems).
 
Bad news, I have never successfully bounced a Melodyne track which I need to do to avoid lots of Melodyne instances burning up my CPU.  There will be 20-24 voices on this track.
 
  1. I inserted Meldodyne in the FX bin.  (Maybe I should try Region later, but that's where it is now.) The edits are done.
  2. I tried freezing the track and dragging the audio to a new track like I do with VIs.  That did not work.
  3. I tried Bounce to Clip and I got the old audio without the Melodyne corrections.
All my old projects have Melodyne in them because I could never get the bounce to work.
 
Advice?

im not sure because I use Region FX to this but possibly make your fixes then bounce it down Vs bouncing to clips.

Chuckebaby, You are pretty cool about answering stuff.  Thanks.
 
I actually tried bounce to track which did not work, so maybe I will try Bounce to Clip.
 
This is the vocal first track within the project, so on the other tracks I will try the Region thing.  Worst case, I can do this track's edits again as a region Fx.  I am doing a bunch of voices to simulate a congregation in a church, so, fortunately, I am just have to edit the final chorus and not the whole song.

Re: How to bounce a melodyne track 2017/03/05 21:06:41 (permalink)
OK, Don't know why, but this time bounce to track worked fine.  The only thing I did different was to select a mono output, but I doubt that's the reason it worked.  ?
 
Anyway, I am good, but with a follow up question.  Instead of deleting the track with Melodyne on it, can I archive it in case I want to make changes later?  Will archiving make Sonar think there is no active Melodyne instance (from a CPU/memory perspective)?
 
Muchas gracias.

you should have a back up in your Audio folder (in the projects folder).
However you might want to verify that by eye just in case. I say just incase because I happen to believe there is never a fail safe back up plan . you know what I mean.
