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.

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.
