OK, I'm trying to understand.   "Bounce to clip" - this is done by selecting all the clips and right clicking on them (I'm not on my recording computer right now) to make the smaller clips one long one.   Then I open Melodyne.  Correct?  
 
Thanks!
Greg

It can be one clip or multiple clips, but yes. As I said I have ctrl+b set to do this so it's ctrl+m to open melodyne and then ctrl+b to bounce/render. Easy to remember and I find it a better workflow than the other methods.
 
BTW you don't have render/bounce each clip as you go, I often have several open at once, but melodyne has been known to get a bit flaky/crashy if you have too many open instances on the go at once, so it's just a way of protecting against that. 

Is there a tutorial on this?  I clicked on one small section and opened Melodyne.  When I was done, I closed it in order to click on another section and open Melodyne again.  And this is when Sonar crashed.   
 
Thanks!

I think you are skipping a step.
Made a short video.

All the best.

Got it.  Thanks, Ken!

You might find it easier to work with smaller clips though.  You just create a region FX for each clip, edit in Melodyne and then render it.
 
I do all my editing by phrase basically.  I don't want the whole vocal open at once because its too much information (I only listen to a phrase at a time.)  It also ensure that there is some variability in the way I edit.  I move all pitches and amplitudes manually to try to keep some feel, even taking things a bit more "out of tune" to create a bit of tension or drama.

Also clone the track and archive a copy before you start editing in Melodyne.

Good idea.   Thanks!
 
Greg

The clone and archive trick works awesome. I had random artifacts pop up in final mixdowns due to I hadn't rendered the clip yet. This way I still have the original without using any resources.

Unfortunately, I didn't do it with the first song  (although it turned out well).  But I will do it from now on.
 
Thanks!
