Those are two good topics. Can you say who will be narrating the Melodyne tutorial/s?
Karl Rose is good and we're lucky to have him doing things for the SONAR community.
Still, with me being American, it's good to hear long session tutorials narrated by someone with a North American accent. Can't Cakewalk get Eli Kranzberg to do more tutorials/videos? He's extremely good and has a pleasant North American sounding voice.
Thanks for the info you've already given, though.
