Awesome Tutorial !! You didn’t hum and hah, you got right down to it and you spoke quickly and efficiently. Terrific job. One of the best tutorials I have watched...and I have watched a few :) Thank you!
if you duble click the note it also goes to perfekt pitch
Melodyne is just awesome. I had a problem with a choir library where a Bb note was sounded really fake (definitly a bad pitch shift). So I played the G just one tone and a half under that was sounding natural then I tuned it up to the higher Bb.
The result is just amazing compare to the original sample in the library...
EXCELLENT !
Melodyne Studio has controls for both Pitch Drift and Modulation, so you can tighten up (or eliminate, robot-style) vibrato. I've used Melodyne extensively on solo vocals, judiciously and manually note-by-note. I'd challenge anyone to "hear the Melodyne" in the final mix/master.
It's also great for fixing bad instrumental intonation or, occasionally, changing pitches. As you mentioned, sometimes you'll get a great take that just needs some tuning to be release-ready, like an improvised solo with a few questionable note choices.
speaking of instruments. Just today I had to go and edit a beat I though I was done mixing because some of the sustained synth bass notes were sounding un-natural and bland like unseasoned chicken breast. I had to go in and automate some little pitch bends here and there to make it sound a some of the notes were drifting around a little, which was actually sounded better
Great tutorial. I use Melodyne Essentials in my DAW of choice: Tracktion Waveform. I've never noticed the Pitch/Drift correction tools before, but I did know about splitting notes. These will come in handy in the future.
You're an awesome teacher Joe! I just started with Studio One 5 and Melodyne - This video is spot on! Thanks!!!
Me as well. This program is very powerful. I feel like I am in over my head!
Dear Joe
Thanks for the great video. I've avoided this software for years! Just couldn't rap my mind around it. After watching this clip I finally got it together! You're the only guy out there in RUclips land who managed to explain how this software really works 🙏🏿✌🏿👍🏾✨🎶❤️😊🥁💯
Acquainting myself with this . I learn best by doing ....seeing some direction is helpful. Thank you Joe
More good info! I am ready to jump in to melodyne for the first time! Thanks Joe!
Very cool video. I'm a little intimidated about using Melodyne... You're clearing the murkiness of it though... Great tutorial! Thanks :)
This video is so incredibly helpful, Joe - thank you! 🙌
Thank you. At last, someone who said "Double click" not just click to cut the note. Thank you so much!
You just made me a very happy man, Joe! The glob splitter is my new fav feature.
This was really good, Joe, thanks for making it for us.
Very useful, thanks so much!
Outstandingly clear
Thanks for the demo! Melodyne came with my DAW, & I just upgraded to essential.
I’ve got live multitrack band recordings on tape (10” reels) dating back to the 70’s where the vocals need afix’n. 😎👍🎹🎸🎻🎶
Joe, this is a great video. I had not stumbled upon the way to split a note (or even notice that the note needed to be split). That's a great help.
One thing I would add that I just figured out: When you first go to edit in Melodyne,, the display you get depends on the algorithm that Melodyne used. I don't know why, but I'm finding a lot of the time Melodyne uses the Universal algorithm, and the display has all the blobs along the same line. I can fix that by going to the Algorithm -> Melodic menu item and (after a warning that all of the existing analysis with be lost) it gives me the display you have on your video. I don't know why I'm getting Universal algorithm so much but as long as I can change it I'm happy.
Thanks for all of your helpful videos. I keep going back to them as I'm trying to learn how to record / mix / master.
Very helpful comment, thank you!
I don't get why many musicians/ engineers still shy away from using all the pitch correction and vocal editing software to their fullest potential. What's counts is the result. That's a golden rule in arts. Imagine a director not using CGI because it's not natural. Doesn't make sense to me. Those who use all the possibilities to their fullest potential will always be the ones who succeed.
I dont disagree with you. However, that assumes that vocal editing is the only way to go. Imagine watching a Guillermo del Toro movie without the practical effects. Or if the practical effects and prosthetics were replaced with CGI. That's not to say that the CGI in his movies weren't spectacular but some of his most iconic and amazing and beautiful performances he got out of his actors and crew came from those non CGI moments. The most Iconic scene in Pan's labyrinth, IMO, is the scene where the eye hand monster guy thing (idk...) is slowly walking towards ofilia. And yes theres some CGI with the Fairy flying around but the monster was all practical effects and it was an amazing performance. And that's what mixing is. Providing an amazing performance. And sometimes vocal editing isn't the the way to do it. Sometimes the grit and raw vocals are better than the perfectly tuned vocals (we will rock you by queen comes to mind) in portraying a beautiful and powerful moment. But on the other side, sometimes a perfectly tuned voice is the way to produce an amazing performance (any current taylor swift song... opinions on taste are unimportant)! Just like CGI is the way to produce an amazing moment like any iconic scene from the hobbit or magical effect from Harry Potter. Sometimes those effects are necessary. So I think you are correct. But I also think that the reason so many musicians and mixing artists avoid vocal editors is because sometimes adding something or "fixing" something changes or even removes that performance energy. Just my 2 cents as a person who studied with dozens of experts on this kind of thing in a working studio for a few years. Not like that makes me an expert by any means. Everyone is still learning and I'm definitely no exception! Lol.
Nick Taylor I think we're on the same page here. It's about using the available tools to their fullest potential and not shy away from them. Absolutely.
Glad we both agree! Nicest comment thread ever!
great point
Because perfect is soulless!
YOU ARE A MASTER! I RESPECT YOU AND I WILL REMEMBER YOU FOREVER!. THANK YOU
Wow, I really feel guilty for ignoring (and under-estimating) melodyne! It's really quite powerful...thank you Joe!
The week I start to dabble with Melodyne, you make a video about it. Great timing Joe!
I feel the same way! Do the best and it should sound good. But use a little Melo to polish it up when and where needed.
"Then you just double click... boink" hahahaha made me laugh! Awesome man I love the very natural speak in your vids!
"Click the blob, and 'boink!'"
Haha, love this :D Also, great tutorial - thank you!!
Really great getting started guide. Helped me orient myself. Thanks Joe!
Easy, just came for the "splitting note" trick, and you delivered it, plus with humor so! Thanks!
Thank you, sir for taking the time and effort to help us all out. Rock on.
Great video. I'm using a PC not a Mac, but the tip on how to split a combined note was something I was missing. Thanks. Just a point, sometimes you want a sharpness to create a discord, but it needs to be spot on and consistent so it doesn't sound bad. Melodyne Essential is great at that. It's what you do. We get by with a little help from our friends. Stay safe.
Thanks for the tutorial man 🙌🙌🙌
super great and helpful video, thank you!
This was a truly detailed video. I just download the software and haven't used it yet and I feel confident already lol thanks
2:10 "No! Stop it!" hahahaha lol Thanks for the tutorial Joe!
Thanks dude. Nailed it. I was afraid to set pitch center to 100 as in waves tune that sounds awful for indie rock. I have melodyne and just upping the pitch center globally sounds much more natural.
Thank you sir!
i love the way you present things with humor. you should do a tutorial on autotune
Great vid! Been going through a heap of these as I just got s1 pro, this is by far the quickest easiest to learn for where I'm at.. love the way you go through how you use it and get the info across.. good stuff and thanks 🙏🕊️
Very very helpful. Thank you 🙏
Your video timing is perfect, kind of struggled with Melodyne today. Mainly because I suck at singing though lol
Thanks. Very helpful.
This is a great tutorial! Thank you for making this!
Thank you
Thanks for this tutorial. Subscribed!
very use full tutorial... like always... thanks...
Thanks for sharing friend
Thank you so much for this!!! Extremely grateful
Thank you so much!!!!
Thank you I been Trying to learn this for years and you made it so simple and eloquent thank you
Off topic but I love how things are organized in S1 (I'm a daily Pro Tools user)
Great guide. Thanks for sharing
Very helpful thanks
Your tutorials are so helpful. Keep up the good work, my friend.
Thanks Joe for this one! Cher had a great hit with autotune trick I think. If I could turn back time.
Sjaak Strik I think everyone knows that but it was Autotune, not Melodyne 😂
this was super helpful thanks man
Thanks a million. I couldn't find the way to split the "clouds". Thumb high up!
Grt advice. Ty sir
I checked - everything is clean
Thanks for another great video Joe! This will really help me.
this sounds useful, i'm grateful it came with the software
Thanks Joe. This was realy helpfull.
Great tutorial. Helpful. Thanks!
Great video
Thank you so much my friend great videos
A long time ago I was using Melodyne UNO. But now, Flex Pitch from LPX.
mine looks nothing like this, everytime i try to edit a vocal passage it puts them all at the same not and its just a mess
You may be using Melodyne Player instead of Melodyne Essential. I ran into the same issue. I would make sure that you registered the software correctly.
This helped me SO MUCH. Thank you
Hi! Just wanted to say I think you sound great. We are not machines and western pitch temperament is a construct anyway. Also thank you for this help. Also- my studio one didn’t come with Melodyne because I bought it with a blue yeti mic so they didn’t include it 🤨. I just bought it separate. I just wanted people to know.
I've used Melodyne for five or six years, beginning with Melodyne Essential. I use Pro Tools, so it's not free to me, but Melodyne Essential is only $99.00. Eventually, I upgraded to Melodyne Pro. It's cool in that you can actually work with polyphonic tracks. For example, maybe you played a great guitar track but one string was a little out of tune, or maybe you bent a string too far in a lead. You can tune the out-of-tune notes using Melodyne Pro. (Melodyne Essential works only on monophonic tracks like a single vocal track.) You can also adjust timing and phrasing with any Melodyne version, and even build harmonies with it, though when you manipulate audio tracks very much you always have to deal with some artifacts. In Melodyne Pro and Melodyne Studio (the ultimate and very expensive Melodyne), you can even tune percussion tracks. And there's more that, frankly, I've never needed to use. It's really a great tool. I'd hate to live without it. Thanks for this little inspirational video, Joe.
Can you not edit the vibrato on the essential??
@@NamzKay it's been a long time since I've used Melodyne Essential, but as I remember, you can edit vibrato in Essential.
Awesome channel & really helpful video 👍 cheers Joe
Awesome stuff on a very confusing topic for me! Thanks
Thank you!
Joe first off I absolutely love how easy it is to understand and take in everything you teach, I am only for the first time ever going to use melodyne 5 to correct my vocals, but have no idea how to begin the process,
I have my vocal done, and before I add any effects? insert melodyne on my vocal track, it's after here I'm stuck, my song is in E and then into F, option key,
I enter E, but yet if I put the entire vocal into melodyne it's going to be totally off, or can I just fix a single section of my vocals without going through the entire vocal track. I hope you can make sense of this, must check out a lot more of your videos, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
super helpful, thanks!
Brilliant video
Hej Joe this is a very usefull quick guide for Melodyne !! Keep up the good work 😀👍
You can perches the full version of Melodyne, where you can actually control pitch.
Great video man really cleared some things up for me, plus love your accent btw
hey joe your tutorials rock!
Great video! Thanks!
excellent thank you
thanks Joe! now subscribed!
Really good video mate. I use this loads and used properly it has amazing result 👍👍
Killer video thanks man! Subscribed
Thanks!
This was excellent!! Thank you!!
Joe thank u!!! Very useful guide =)
Brilliant
4:40 - 4:50 LMFAO!!! That was so funny! Happens to the best of us. Gotta warm up those vocals before a take...
To get the AutoTUNE sound you have to crank the drift until is straight & also straighten out the pitch transitions
Man this is a great video! Super great explanation! I'm researching this before I make the investment. Thanks again!
Great tutorial!
Thanks Joe, needed that...
Ty
Still in my no tuning days :) Only been using this to extract midi info from audio for now. May have to have a go at tuning some vocals now. Cheers well timed vid.
your hilarious! and thanks for the lesson!
Thank you so much for the tutorial! Melodyne is sooo much better than Newtone. It sounds so much natural and requires less effort.
you probably dont give a shit but does someone know a way to get back into an Instagram account..?
I stupidly forgot the password. I appreciate any help you can give me
@Steven Jensen instablaster =)
@Johnathan Kaison Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now.
Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Johnathan Kaison It worked and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thank you so much you saved my ass !
@Steven Jensen Glad I could help :D
The next level, Melodyne Assistant gives you access to the dormant tool, which can really help a bass guitar, and modulation or vibrato. It gives you more control over the lines of pitch vs the blobs. But still not polyphonic. I dont remember if essential has audio to midi or not, but it's cool for drum replacement or augmentation and singing a port and making an instrument part from it. The latter is not as great as it sounds so if you wanted to sing a guitar solo and make it Claptonesque, it ain't happenin.
very good tutorial!
as a beginner, it looks easy you must spend a lot of time to doing the whole song that way, but if you get it, you get it
Is it possible with this melodyn, to handle longer vocal segments ?. Because I insert a long vocal section, so the whole section is seen in the same line of key. Without having to show the separation in the keys .. only in short sections does it show me that.
Hey Joe, by chance, do you know if 'Melodyne essential' comes with the amplitude tool? Can't happen to locate it..
