bitflipper Posted Saturday at 02:35 AM Share Posted Saturday at 02:35 AM I fiddled with Melodyne's EQ window for about 10 minutes back when the feature was first added, intending to go back and explore further. I never did. But today this video was recommended to me and I am now inspired to revisit it. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grem Posted Saturday at 03:19 AM Share Posted Saturday at 03:19 AM I have tried it but could not get my head wrapped around it. Just didn't understand the concept. Now, I did not read the manual concerning the EQ use at all. So... I will give the video a watch!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mettelus Posted Saturday at 04:53 AM Share Posted Saturday at 04:53 AM That is a good find. I admit I totally blew off ever delving into some of the nuances that got added into Melodyne, but some of what he is doing in this video is very similar to what Scaler EQ focuses on. There are definitely differences between the two, and I am assuming this is geared more towards post-production only. Ironically, my biggest "complaint" going from 3 Editor to 5 Studio was it takes 5-6 times longer to open an entire score (commercial master) so I always hoped for a "bypass" option for the added "note manipulations" I never seem to touch.

bitflipper Posted Saturday at 03:02 PM Author Share Posted Saturday at 03:02 PM Although I am a longtime Melodyne user - going back to version 1 with a now-discontinued 8-track version called Cre8 - I use it so rarely that every session sees me re-learning many fundamentals. It's a deep application. Did you know you can also use it for compression? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treesha Posted Saturday at 04:49 PM Share Posted Saturday at 04:49 PM I had messed around with the eq features before but didn’t really get it, so the video examples helped me to see the different ways it can be useful. Always more to learn about melodyne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reginaldStjohn Posted Saturday at 06:46 PM Share Posted Saturday at 06:46 PM I have used it a few times to reduce nasal sounding vocal words and to make a backing vocal sound unique since I was singing all the parts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mibby Posted Sunday at 04:22 AM Share Posted Sunday at 04:22 AM I wonder if I can do this with Melodyne Assistant? I agree, Melodyne is pretty impressive software, but also equally unintuitive - at least for me. This makes me think of Scaler EQ over a PluginBoutique. https://www.pluginboutique.com/product/2-Effects/16-EQ/11473-Scaler-EQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, this is part of the "Sound Editor" feature, which is available only in the Studio edition. Here's a comparison of features between each version. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane_B. Posted Monday at 01:28 PM Share Posted Monday at 01:28 PM This or something very similar to it is in Melda's AutoDynamic EQ. You can even put an overlay of a keyboard on the screen iirc. I've used it more for repairing bad samples and recordings I made, but not a lot. It's very easy to mess things up with this for an amateur like me.

Gswitz Posted Tuesday at 12:59 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 12:59 AM (edited) I've really only used it to learn parts from recordings. I never managed a result I liked more than the original. Feed it this and see what it says. Lol. Edited Tuesday at 01:02 AM by Gswitz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got pretty good results with it very easily. Not to say I don't like Melodyne. I took an old recording a few years ago and did an entire key change on the second half of the song and it's impossible to tell it was done with software. My problem is I've always had a terrible listening environment when mixing. I could never really hear the full effect of changes until I got in my truck. I think I'm at least one version behind on Melodyne. I can't wait to get a studio set up, get everything upgraded, and dive back in to it. I'm going to have to upgrade my PC too. Oh darn. 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
