I just downloaded 1.3 version of Melodyne and need to install it in SP 8.3 64bit as a plugin. Since I haven't purchased a comprehensive guide since SP7 and the manual with the product has no info I appeal to the forum. ( I have a new guide on the way) Evergreen

Simply open the install app.... or follow the installation instructions that came with Melodyne. 

It should install itself into a folder in C:\Program files called Celemony. 

If it asks if you want to use the default install, say yes.... it should include the PLUG IN as one of the default options. I think it will also run stand alone, although I do not use it like that.

Once it is installed, simply go into Sonar, navigate to the plug in manager, and add the Melodyne folder in Celomony that contains the DLL file to the plug in list.

Run a SCAN and melodyne should now be available in the audio FX list. 

You might need to restart Sonar... but I don't think so. After the scan it should be there ready to go.

Perfect post, Guitar - Evergreen, it's just like getting any other plug-in loaded up for your Sonar arsenal.  Don't you ever download and prep freebies from KVR and the like?  It's all the same.-- In any case, do what Guitar says - Soon you'll be Melodyned.

Southport NC... down near Wilmington..... 


I get there ...well, Wilmington, form time to time on business. 


I'm up near Wilson.... 3 miles from Hwy 95. 

 Unfortunately the scan didn't recognize the Melodyne plugin. I have a feeling that I will have to un-install and go through the install/upgrade process. I am going to sent a note to Melodyne for there advice. PS Next time you are in Wilmington give me a call at 910-279-7291

Evergreen, are you positive that you added the Melodyne location in the Plug-In Manger's list of locations to scan? (either that, or did you copy the Melodyne .dll file to your master VST folder?) RB

K, I have he same issue... I tried all the above tips & it still doesn't show in the fx bin... 

I did the program scan thing, which it didn't seem to find a plugin in the folder & tried a copy & paste thing into a folder that had working plugins w/o luck...

Could I be missing a step to load it?

Find the folder that has the Melodyne DLL file. In Sonar, you have to add that folder to the list of folders for Sonar to scan. It only scans the folders you tell it to scan.  It doesn't search your disk drive to find it.

After you run the scan, look in the Utilities-Cakewalk Plug-In manager. Select VST Audio Effects (VST) and then scroll through the list of Registered Plug-Ins. If its in that list, then make sure its listed in the Plug-In Menu Layout that you're using. 

Alright... I'm clearly not get'n it...

1st off, Melodyne works perfect in stand alone mode.
2ndly I have successfully add a .dll Antares Harmony files to the fx bins
3rdly i'm use'n Sonar X2a Producer & Melodyne Essentials 

Here is what I'm do'n step by step:

- open Sonar
- open Utilities -> Cakewalk Plug-in Manager
- Click on Options
- add the Celemony folder from the program files folder
- click scan
- watch it scan
- see it scan the Celemony folder
- watch the scan finish
- see 9 types of plugins 
- click on each type & search through the plugins for Celemony or Melodyne
- don't see them in the various directories

So, I suck at this game...

Did you point Sonar to the 64-bit Melodyne folder in C:\Program Files not the 32-bit folder C:\Program Files (x86)?
