I upgraded to assistant to get that feature. I dont think they have too many versions. I DO think its hard to find a decent feature comparison chart so you can make an informed decision about what version you need.

This matrix suggests that all versions do mapping, but editor or studio are required for editing tempo.
Assistant gives you the ability to export tempo maps.

Studio one actually handles that great (pretty much the only thing it handles great is melodyne to be honest)

And the beatmapping stuff for using tempo maps.

Exciting stuff by the way

My experience with ARA audio to MIDI in Melodyne in both Studio One and Samplitude shows that the conversion doesn't recognise the note off of the audio so you end up with a bunch of midi notes without the correct duration of the audio. Anyone else noticed this?

So you can get a midi tempo - but it's not a "midi tempo track" ie you can't edit? I don't really get that. Does it not show up as a separate track (midi tempo track)? I'll have to dig out my old SONAR and find my Melodyne Essential (4) to try it. Have not messed with it since ver 3

This is exactly why ARA implementation is so important.

Right now I have to export audio from REAPER, import it into Melodyne 4 Studio, analyze the audio, edit the tempo map, then export the MIDI file. You drop the MIDI file into REAPER and it recognizes that there is tempo data in the MIDI file and asks you if you want to import it into the project. Doing so creates Tempo markers in REAPER that are aligned to the MIDI file, so it is imperative that the MIDI file be dropped in the correct location relative to the audio and that the audio's timebase is set to TIME. Finally, if there any mistakes in the tempo map, you pretty much need to do the whole process over.

With ARA integration, the exchange of tempo data between Melodyne and REAPER should be fluid. Not requiring any export/import malarkey and remaining fully editable within Melodyne plugin (for Editor & Studio versions). At least, that's the way I understand it as appears in this video by Celemony in 2011.

Agreed but I just double checked and upgrading from what I have to the minimum version that takes advantage of all the cool stuff on tempos appears to be 199 dollars. Ouch!
I already use autotune and reatune for the wobblers & haven't really needed to tweak tempos that much, so until the price comes down, or my need goes up.....

I agree that the price is steep. I only have Melodyne 4 Studio because Celemony is pretty generous to their existing customers. I bought the plugin many years ago and was upgraded to Editor for free because it was released within 6 months of my purchase. Then last year or so, I was offered an upgrade for $150 to Studio. So, I've got $250 invested in over a decade. That's the only reason I have Studio now. I wouldn't purchase it for $850 new because I don't make a living using it.

But, I have it, so I'm really happy that Cockos is going to add ARA support!

Anyone know why more developers don't implement ARA? E.g. iZotope? It'd be great for RX...

With Reaper providing ARA, same will get more importance and plugin developers might be triggered.

Ah, just looked it up; didn't realize Celemony created it. Perhaps just a political/business thing that iZotope doesn't use it, then.

Melodyne Essential will work perfect in Reaper ARA (if everything is implemented). You may want to upgrade according to what you need in Melodyne

The cost-issue of course makes way for some questions,
as Melodyne Editor is Eur249/399/699, and Reaper is $60/$250.
And a fully integrated Melodyne ARA is vastly superior to native solutions as today.

For the small user to have decent functionality that's $60 for Reaper and 399eur for Melodyne (oh, yes, sales and upgrades some cheaper)
Personally, it's out of budget right now, even on upgrade from my Essential license.

I dont know if it the midi tempo file is actually editable. I never did any editing as the drum tracks I used were already edited before being imported into melodyne: Meaning any obviously bad hits were already dealt with.

My primary usage for this tempo mapping process is so I can set my FX to the grid on a free-time song.

That's the problem in the audio industry: very few standards and thus lack of interoperability. Apart from MIDI and wav, what standards are there ? The proprietary VST format somehow won over the others because it's free, but apart from that, there is zero incentive for developers to sit around a table and work together on standards, for example an exchange format for projects or scores. And hence in 2017 we are most often stuck with importing the wav and MIDI files and from then on rebuild the projects completely from scratch.

Sometimes, one developer decides to publish its own format but that's it. It's up to the others to decide whether or not it's beneficial to implement it in their products and understandably, because there has been no cooperation at the beginning, the answer is often no. So I completely understand the reluctance of Cockos to implement ARA especially since it's proprietary and it concerns only one (ok, two) product over the years.

That would make sense, although I think that would mean holding it back just for the sake of sales. They usually don't skip minor version numbers, afaik, and they're only at 5.62.

Personally, I would be completely okay with buying a new license next year.

Watching the two Videos mentioned in this thread it seems to me that Melodyne integration via ARA in a decent way, allowing for anything shown in the videos, might be a lot of work. E.g. the Melodyne window is shown instead of any of the Waveform / Icon displays on request of the user.

So creating and testing the appropriate software will take some time.

These guys don't really think much in terms of sales.
Why I expect this to come in v6 release is more about it being a major feature, and the timing for major version development is right.

at this stage in my musical journey yada yada i'd rather get the talent ( or me ) to perform it better than A) fork out for such tools and B) be then obliged to sift through every note of not only vocal performances but polyphonic things like guitar etc. searching for perfection in the wrong place.

gives me a headache considering it!

then again if you parked a van full of bitcoins outside and said 'sift through my guitar takes' i'd be all for it.

Exciting stuff! I think Melodyne is going to get a bunch of new customers because of this.

I'm pretty much in this camp, but It's important to note that a lot of people (myself included) use these tools for creative purposes and not just to 'fix' things. And of course there may be situations where you're not able to get the performer to do another take (live recordings for example).

indeed, if you're making stuff sound crazy i like it. and sure sometimes all you have is a duff take and you have to fix it, but i am moving away from that a little, or at least hope to.

There is still a sale on melodyne until the end of the year.

Best price i found after a quick look around seems to be at audiodeluxe.

I've got the melodyne essential from when i bought studio one, so its:
Celemony Melodyne Essential to Melodyne 4 Editor Upgrade = $131.99
or
Celemony Melodyne Essential to Melodyne 4 Studio Upgrade = $265.99
for me.

You will need an account at audiodeluxe to see these prices though.

Does anyone know if theres anyway to get this to work with linux reaper?

I think they're working on it already on current pre builds because today I edited something with Melodyne and to my surprise a folder called "Melodyne" magically appeared inside my project folder with the two transfers I did. This alone is a major improvement when working with Melodyne. You can't imagine how many times I've lost what I've edited on Melodyne after a reboot because all transfers are stored in a temp folder by default.

Thank you Cockos.

Another useful option at hand. Very interesting. I had used the first Melodyne version in studios in .... geez, 2001 I think. It's fine kit.

Can someone tell me what the minimum version of Meloyine is that is needed to make use of ARA in compatible DAWS ? All of them, or just the high-end version ???

I'd like that too. I just starting digging into it, and ReaTune sounds great! It so impressive. The UI is a bit cryptic, but if a few Melodyne-like and ARA features were added it would be even better.
