Great job bakers - solid update!

Kudos to the bakers for the March ER update! Direct Melodyne tempo extraction just as many of us asked for, separate LandR installer for those that were worried. As anyone who ever talked a friend into signing up for Sonar will know only too well, that particular favour ties you to a lifelong support program for which the load will be greatly lightened by the most excellent help module:)
 
Found 2 bug fixes so far - render bit rate change now works as advertised, and a docked piano roll note/controller alignment bug gone as well.
 
Nice one bakers! One very happy camper.
 
EDIT: Thanks to Jim I stand corrected that the small but niggly  note/velocity allignment in docked PRV when opened by keyboard shotcut issue is not fixed;  I have instead stumbled upon a workaround. See post #52
The render bitrate change, solid release and happy camper still stand:)

I took care of it. 

All three of his posts are of the same vane.  (Joined this AM with no system specs, not asking for help, no specific issues-just rants.)
 
 Thanks John.  You did the surgery as I was posting. 

He will keep it up, apparently he's under the delusion he's clever. I banned him and his other alt permanently. I'm very tolerant - never banned anyone until this guy - but I've lost all patience at this point.

THANK YOU Craig.

One bug that is not yet fixed (or at least I saw it happen again last night) is the timeline in docked PRV does not always line up with the events in the PRV until you scroll the PRV.  I was hoping that would get fixed as part of the controller/note alignment problem.

I haven't seen that problem in the new version yet Jim. Have you found a consistent way to reproduce it?

Since I don't fully understand the new features I hope that the early adopters will tell us all what it's all about. I was hoping to read the ezine about this release but I can't find it.

Everything seems to be running well. However, what about the new UI options? Are they there, or coming later, etc....? I love the example that was posted on Twitter the other day.

Coming soon.

Does the new Melodyne related feature work with the version supplied with Sonar or do I have to buy an upgrade? It's not clear in the ezine and this is a feature I would like to explore.

As the eZine says: "Although this feature reaches its full potential with Melodyne Editor and Studio, it’s still extremely effective with Melodyne Essential 2 and 4." Later on it mentions that only Editor and Studio include a tempo detection option to modify the tempo, but I've done the drag 'n' drop thing with Melodyne 2 and 4 and it works well.

Thanks Craig, it looks like I need to do some homework and explore Melodyne upgrades. 90% of the stuff I record is with people that can't, or won't use a click.

Get new friends/clients. Saved you a ton a dosh?

Me too.
 
Can't wait to try this.
I can't AND won't cut to a click.
 
To be able to quantize the midi drums to a free form performance tempo map is what I've needed for as long as I have used a DAW. I could never get my head around Audio Snap. The thought of teaching it the song (transients) just never sat well with me. While I am stuck at work and can't try it yet, leave it to the wizards at Celemony.
 
Now if it will just stop crashing creating a Fx Region for melodyne.
I plan to update everything tonight, Sonar, Melodyne essential and see how it goes. :-)

The drag n' drop tempo feature is spectacular.

In CCC, right click on Sonar, select "Rollback" and you'll see the early release entry in there. Intuitive, huh? :)

I think this is an example of "back to the future."
