best handling for pitching tghe same clip

[mfkne]

I have a question here, perhaps anyone has an idea. 

I have an audio clip, say a synth arpeggio in C and use this 3 times on a track. I want the same clip one time pitched up 3 semitones to complement the melody/line. As NEXT is not object orientated, I had to put the clip on a separate track with the pitch plugin. So I have the melody on 2 tracks. Not nice, but manageable. problem is, that the pitch plugin causes a short delay although pdc is activated, so the line is not sounding fluid. I am sure the problem is the pitch plugin because when moving the clip to the first track, the break is gone.

Has anybody another idea to handle this?

I don't have access to Next, so can't test this, but in the other Cakewalks (CbB and Sonar and older stuff) you can transpose inside the clip properties dialog (audio stretching tab IIRC) for either audio or midi clips.   

I would expect Next to have *some* way to do this, even if it's destructively processing it (via a menu transpose function or whatever) rather than that way. 

EDIT:   google 

https://www.google.com/search?q=tranpose+clip+in+"cakewalk+next" 

says there's a manual here

https://bandlab.github.io/cakewalk/docs/Cakewalk_Next_User_Manual.pdf

but searching on "transpose" only shows a way to do what seem like individual midi notes.  So you may not have the functions that the other Cakewalks have?

No, Next is very basic and is missing a lot of more advanced features. They seems pretty slow at making improvements. After a whole year gone by we finally got a tempo map. You get the impression this is a part time job for one developer. 

What I am forced to do with things like this  is use Melodyne stand alone. If Next had ARA support it would happen internally like it does in other software that supports ARA. 

Presently you would have to find that clip in the audio folder and open it in the  Melodyne editor and transpose it there and it "SAVE AS " and add the new note name. 

I have Melodyne studio so I can create complicated chords from just that one note. People only think of vocals but I use Melodyne for audio editing way more than vocals. Its possibly still on sale. This is the best time of the year to upgrade. Most people have the essentials version which comes free with a lot of Daw's. Even one free Daw I have included it.  They will use that license for a cheap upgrade.
