Melodyne 4 Regional FX Window

[sjoens]

Lately has been required to close and reopen a 2nd time for the wave blobs to show.

1st window is always blank.

CbB 2021.09 b141

EDIT: This only happens in some projects.

I have studio 5 and sometimes that happens for me

[Keni]

Happens to me on occasion too, but not a show stopper.

 

I own 5 studio but only have 4 studio installed due to hardware bound to win8.1

works great other than this tiny glitch.

I’m glad that this is normal for others. I always thought it was just my computer being slow to draw.

I'm seeing this with V-Vocal and clip bouncing too. I wonder if it's related. I sent a problem project to Noel.

[Andres Medina]

The same here!

And yes, closing and reopening fixed it . - or reanalyze the clip, but it takes longer!

 

[sjoens]

Then it must be a bug. I don't remember Melodyne ever doing this before a few updates ago.

And now V-Vocal will open but doesn't work at all, when it used to work fairly well. I expected this would eventually happen as it's no longer supported.

[scook]

I just tried V-Vocal and it seems OK here.

I have not used it in a very long time but dragging the blobs around does alter the sound.

I am running CbB on Win10 Pro 21H2.

[Terry Kelley]

Send any examples you can to Noel.

V-Vocal isn't supported anymore but it might help determine if something else is happening especially with clip bouncing or if the issue is really is with Melodyne.

I know there are many suggestions going back 10 years on how to make V-Vocal work reliably but in reality it's dependent on your project and how memory is being used. The simpler the project, the less likely it is that V-Vocal will crash but as you build it up it will eventually go south.

Try everyone's suggestions - one might work. Melodyne has been known for being very stable but maybe it's now running into similar issues. The developers need example projects to fix it.

In such cases, I close Melodyne, rightcklick/region effect/open editor. Et voilá!

[sjoens]

I may have posted in another thread that the VVocal issue (Melodyne also) affected one project and seems to work otherwise.

Since X1 VVocal opens in Multidock with the right side of it's GUI missing.

[Terry Kelley]

I just bought the basic Melodyne and one time it created a blank region. I need to play with pre-bouncing and gain to see if that matters (a la Please Work V-Vocal.)

So you are saying that if we get an empty clip to close the VV window and reopen it via Open Editor and the clip will be there?

Not Terry here, but yes, that's how it's happening -

The clip is always there, but the blops are missing. Missing out of view, but the edits and everything is there -

Yeah, I've seen that one too. Right now, I am seeing an empty window. No clip waveform, no yellow pitch lines. Squat, nada. Melodyne has done it twice too. I try my various tricks but it's hit and miss if it will show up on VV.

Interesting info though! Thanks!

Edit: I remembered that sometimes the yellow pitch line can be off the screen and you need to scroll to find it. You see the waveform but no yellow pitch line. It's there but down or up off the screen.

When Melodyne comes up blank, clicking again on the selected audio clip in Track view works for me. (2020.09). I'm so used to doing it now that I'd forgotten that it was a problem.

I am new to Melodyne and I just noticed it. It takes longer to render than V-Vocal but if I don't see it in 10 seconds I click on it and there it is. Has it been like this for a long time (longer than the latest CbB build)?

Also, I notice CTRL+M consistently brings up the blobs without having to click on the clip again. Nope, not always. You have to click on the clip. Is it a window refresh issue?

As I said before, I'm using CW 2020.09 and I'm pretty sure that the issue was present before then, maybe even as far back as when Melodyne v4 was released. The initial release version certainly had a few issues.

Yes. This has been around since early melodyne 4
