Melodyne stopped working within Cakewalk...

[AndyLeF]

I've been using Melodyne successfully for many years within Cakewalk projects on my Win 10 music PC ....

Just recently, I've changed my audio interface unit, a Focusrite Saffire Pro 24 DSP, to an Audient iD44 MK II and Melodyne has now (mostly!) stopped working within my Cakewalk project; it fails to produce pitch bars (blobs) in the Melodyne window. 

I've ensured there are no sample rate conflicts between the iD44 and Cakewalk by setting 44.1Khz and 24 bit everywhere in the Cakewalk driver/audio preference settings and also in the iD44 mixer settings.

What's really annoying is that very occasionally, I am able to correctly "Region FX/Melodyne" a recorded vocal wav file within my project.

I've tried "Bouncing to clip" - to make sure the vocal recording is rendered correctly before trying Melodyne on it with (mostly) no luck. Very occasionally, it will work!

Melodyne works fine on the recorded vocal when used as a stand-alone application in Windows.

 

Chatgpt has suggested I export every track as a separate template file and then import them all back into a clean/fresh Cakewalk project, in case my current Cakewalk project is corrupted somewhere - but, with 42 tracks I'm a bit daunted to try this.

There doesn't seem to be a way of easily exporting my complete project and then importing it all back into a new/clean Cakewalk project easily .... (?)

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Andy

The export dialog is really good in cakewalk. But, If you can open the song, my 1st suggestion would be to use the file - save copy as. Give it a new name and a new folder. Then try this version.
