    What is wrong with freezing Melo edited tracks?

    Users have made note in the past freezing too many region FX/Melodyne edits has caused instability.

    If I Render Region FX, doesn't that bounce that clip into a new clip and you no longer have the original?

    The original wave is always stored in your projects working audio folder.

    Of course, I can always Bounce to Clip when I am completely satisfied with the edits and ready to mix and still retain the original track and just mute it. I just never want to lose access to the original track with the Melo edits on it.

    The way i have always looked at Melodyne clips is something close to fixing something that's not right. I'm not worried about using Melodyne on something that needed to fixed in the first place. In most cases, i'd rather re-record a track if its that bad, however i can re-open a Region FX clip as many times as i want so how necessary is it to go back to the original wave file ? Unless of course i am experimenting on a clip and screw it up so bad I need to restart all over, how many times has that happened to me ? 1 out of 100 times. And more often than not i realize how foolish the melodyne edit sounds before i close the project and undo everything.

    So I fixed it before this got any responses, but in case anyone else is having the same issue, I changed my driver mode to WASAPI Exclusive. I'm not sure why it worked, but it did. I would say that if you've tried all else, just mess with the driver modes until something works.

    We posted at the same time. Glad its solved.

    2. The video posted in this thread says that after you do your Melo edits to bounce the track. I personally advise against that. Sometimes I hear things after my Melo edits and want to edit or undo things. I'd rather use the original clip rather than a bounced version. So I suggest after all your Meo edits on one track, if you are concerned about saving DSP to freeze the track with the little snowflake icon. Once you bounce it, it's baked in and down the line, if you want to make changes, there is no more undo.

    That would be the video i made.

    What's the difference between the original track and one that has melodyne edits done to it ? There's no degeneration between the original clip and a Melodyne clip. Unless you just feel more comfortable using the original clip (which are saved in your projects audio folder by the way.

    Freezing multiple melodyne region FX is only going to cause problems down the road, You'll see.

    There's a good reason The "Bounce to clips" and "Render Region FX" option is there. If it was useless, everyone would be freezing their tracks instead.

  4. Load up your old DAW or do a custom installation and point Cakewalk to the plug in folder (I believe its the same folder as Cakewalk by bandlbad defaults to).

    Most of these plug ins can be used but your previous DAW needs to be installed, or as i said, a custom install of plug ins only.

    That's what you're showing in your video, right? You must be, you have a list of drum kit instruments on the left, then you're placing and editing what look like the usual rectangular block MIDI notes in the grid.

    No i'm using the PRV with 1/4 notes. The names of drums load on the left hand side as normal.

    The drum pane has different look to it, i'll try to post a screenshot later.

    I tried using using @scook suggestion yesterday and its a good one. I just just prefer working in PRV.

    Don't like working with "those little triangles"? Note duration optional in the Drum Grid Pane. The setting is in the PRV Notes menu.

     

    I appreciate the suggestion. i just cant stomach that drum pane. Maybe its just my personal preference where PRV notes are easier to see on the eyes.

    I use the same method you do in your video. Is there another way I don't know about?

    The other method is using the Drum pane. Which for me anyway, is a bit difficult, you are grabbing those little triangles which i can not always grab in one click unless my Zoom is maxed in. Using 1/4 or 1/16 notes are easier to grab and lets you work in a wider field.

  8. Yea wish i had some words of encouragement. For what it's worth, i've never heard of anyone (actually ever) disabling their cd/dvd player to improve latency.

    Is your audio interface bus powered ? or plug in (AC) ?

    I actually like what Reaper has to offer (especially in its way to manipulate audio speed). But i find Cakewalk with more features and easier to use. for what i do anyway (typical project is 30 audio tracks/5 midi tracks/50+ plug ins/Region FX). I've had good results in both DAW's (Cakewalk+Reaper). I switched to Reaper for a while when Cakewalk went down. But came back as soon as Cakewalk did. I have an Intel I7 AsRock mobo, 16 GB of ram. Nothing crazy. And a 1st gen Focusrite Scarlett (actually I've never even updated the drivers before LOL).

    No. This keeps happening to me as well. For no visible reason, sometimes it opens enabled and sometimes not here too.

    Yea i'm not sure you read my whole comment.

    The show Aim Assist Time however, doesn't seem to be being stored anywhere, which is why it's behaving randomly.

    This will be fixed for the next release so it behaves like the Aim Assist on/off - so it will be global and remember its state from the last time you used it.

     

  10. I dont use the drm pane for editing notes in the PRV. I use the PRV itself. Excuse me if im not understanding but with drum maps you can sort, arrange those midi notes in any fashion you want.

    Dont get me wrong, Drum maps need an update, i would love to see that. but its never been a show stopper for me, only time consuming. But what isnt time consuming when your customizing something you are going to use over and over again.

    This is how i use the PRV for drum editing. I made this video years ago (around 7 years ago i believe) but i still use the same technique today.

  11. you might want to begin by adding - how did you add this delay to your tracks ?

    Did you put it in the FX bin ? OR as Clip FX ? Did you possibly use a BUS to add the fx ?

     

    I would check the master bus first.

    No I don't use workspaces and screensets.

    Just now I opened CbB (2020.05 build 39) 7 times and then created a new empty unnamed project (Ctrl+N). 4 times the Aim Assist Time was enabled and 3 times it was disabled (randomly)! Workspace was always set to none.

    I would make sure your "new project" template wasnt over written/replaced, even make sure your not loading a project from template.

    EDIT- Never mind, just read Marks post.

  13. All above advice is great.

    Your other options are Audiosnap, Melodyne. But if the whole clip is slightly off, turning off snap will help you move it easier. Jon's idea is very effective when you want pinpoint precision.  

    If i may make a suggestion, Turn your input level up on that guitar. Your wave form looks like its comming in around -12db.
