Just to be technically accurate, ARA is simply a mechanism to integrate Melodyne into SONAR.   So what the OP is really saying is that Melodyne is a mess.

So if I did not read any of this I could summize that SOANR X3 is a mess?

Yes, yes you could.

Hence my comment earlier - "@ OP - Do you actually know what ARA is?"
 
Not only does he not know how to use the software, he doesn't even know what it is, but that doesn't stop him trying to trash it.
 
I just don't understand some people's motives..

True dat...   Most of the time I don't really try to understand 'cause chances are I probably won't anyway.   If the OP had included something resembling a question or even a description I suppose the thread may have taken a different turn.   But as it stands, it's now just a hot mess.

I hope I didn't help turn it into a hot mess, did I?

it was a hot mess off the bat.  at least it's not as bad as studio one where i've taken a clip to midi and had it show up as a whole octave higher. 

But an octave higher is more better, right?
 

and that's how you become a castrato...

Melodyne has become a victim of it's own brilliance. It has a great reputation, which creates hype, and leads many
to assume Melodyne "promises" to do things that no software can do. We've seen similar behaviour with some, say, software that promise to remove vocals from a commercial release. They may work quite well with some particular songs, depending on the arrangement, and be a complete failure with another, because impossible is impossible.
 
When you combine that with unwillingness to spend hours on seriouysly studying the software, you get a disappointed user
who blames the product.
