Celemony Melodyne Studio Bundle (download)

Complete Polyphonic Pitch and Time Editing!

Melodyne Studio has been the mainstay of professional pitch and time correction for several years. Celemony first rocked the industry by discarding the stiff controls of the other pitch correction programs and giving us time and pitch correction in a familiar piano roll format. Next, they refined their already powerful pitch correction engine to accommodate polyphonic audio, giving us dramatic time and tonal correction for rhythmical and polyphonic audio. Now, they've done it again with Melodyne Editor's Direct Note Access (DNA) technology, which lets you individually edit the notes within polyphonic audio. And you get both the powerful multitrack Melodyne Studio 3 and the ultra-versatile Melodyne Editor with Melodyne Studio Bundle.

• The ideal tool for improving individual tracks
• Harmonies and double-tracking are a few mouse clicks away
• From subtle corrections to outrageous effects
• Intelligent MIDI implimentation
• Melodyne Studio 3
• Melodyne Editor

Through its unique pitch-shifting and time-stretching capabilities, Melodyne is a favorite tool around Sweetwater for improving individual tracks. Simply take hold of a note, move it to the perfect pitch or position, optimize its length or alter the intensity of its vibrato. Such corrections are absolutely unnoticeable; the musical message is preserved, because Melodyne3 adapts the note transitions and phrasing intelligently. So there are neither jumps nor the notorious Cher effect unless you want it!

With a few mouse-clicks, you can thicken your singing through doublings or allow a second voice to run with it at the octave. Melodyne can also provide slight random variations of pitch and timing so that it sounds natural. Harmonies are also incredibly easy to create, and since you can affect the formant of each voice separately without affecting the pitch, you can even take a single take of a single voice and create convincing virtual backup singers from it.

With Melodyne's outstanding time stretching and pitch shifting, you can vary and correct your audio material unobtrusively with the very best sound quality - but you can also use these possibilities for extraordinary transformations and effects. You can, for example, stretch a note to such an extent that a short sound is transformed into a fascinating, minute-long sound continuum. Even with such extreme stretching, the starting transients are preserved and the sound remains soft and round.

Melodyne can reproduce the melodies it detects via MIDI - retaining at the same time, pitch, dynamics, tempo and phrasing. Software instruments can be hosted directly in Melodyne and controlled using the Audio-to-MIDI function by Melodyne's audio tracks. The small u-he synthesizer Podolski is installed at the same time; so you can start immediately. You can also export the data generated with audio-to-MIDI as a MIDI file and edit it further in your sequencer; this opens many possibilities for creative arranging and sound design. Breathe new life into your synthesizers! In the other direction, almost all Melodyne parameters can be controlled remotely via MIDI and automated. You can use any MIDI controller you like for this; for particularly popular models, Melodyne comes with ready-made adaptations.

With the Melodyne Studio Bundle, you get two different versions of Melodyne that share many of the same functions and the same basic working environment. Melodyne Studio 3 provides you with a powerful, multitrack environment that allows any type of audio material to profit from Melodyne's unique editing functions and algorithms. Melodyne Studio 3 can handle homophonic and polyphonic textures. Melodyne Studio 3 also offers fully automatic analysis of the audio material, powerful macros for the correction of intonation and timing errors, and numerous improvements in the user interface. Melodyne Studio 3 is not only capable of doing far more than its predecessors; it is also faster and easier to use.

Melodyne Editor is a single channel version of Melodyne that contains the powerful new DNA technology. With DNA (Direct Note Access) technology, Melodyne Editor's note adjustment functions are no longer limited to monophonic audio. DNA actually analyzes and separates chords into their components, letting you edit the pitch of each individual note. So if you capture that once-in-a-lifetime guitar performance and then realize your 'B' string was loose, there's no need to worry - you can fix the slightly detuned notes and still retain the energy of that excellent take. This feature is what many audio editors and recording engineers have been dreaming of ever since the first vocal tuning programs emerged - and now it's here with Celemony's Melodyne Editor!
