Melodyne 5 Studio window behavior
I just upgraded to Melodyne 5 Studio and immediately noticed a window behavior that seemed wrong.
Essentially while playing back a track imported into Melodyne (auto scroll on) as soon as I hit the space bar to stop playback it's screen jumps back to the start position instead of freezing where you stopped. For some reason when starting from 0 or bar 1 this sometimes doesn't happen but in all other cases on my system it does. To me being a longtime user of Melodyne who can spend days deep in vocal editing this really gets in my way. I understand the work arounds but I'd rather have any edit window stop where I stop it as the normal function. A tech at Celemony has gone around a couple times with me on this. Being very helpful btw. The last email he said he wasn't able to recreate the problem. He was using PT 2020.3 and I'm on 2020.5 so maybe that is a factor. So is anyone else seeing this?? I feel like I've tried everything I can think of short of reinstalling earlier versions.

Re: Melodyne 5 Studio window behavior
I've now tested this on a system running PT 2019.6 and found the same behavior.
I got another response back from the tech at Celemony who further tested and has confirmed that if you start playback from the start of your session, no matter how far you play, when you stop playback the Melodyne window freezes in that location. If you start playback from any other location, even 1 millisecond after the beginning of your session, when you stop playback the Melodyne window reverts back to the location it started from. Though I'm beginning to accept that this must've always operated like this, I think it's a counter productive behavior. It really should behave exactly as the Pro Tools Edit window behaves...ie.. No matter where you start from, the window always freezes at the location where you stopped playback.

Re: Melodyne 5 Studio window behavior
I've just come across this and it's driving me BANANAS.
I really don't think it could have behaved like this pre-5. It's so, so bad. Did they ever promise a fix? I used to be on their old forum all the time moaning about stuff, until they got rid of it |

Re: Melodyne 5 Studio window behavior
Very frustrating behavior. I’ve learned that I have to click a blob before stopping playback. Otherwise, the notes that I want to edit are not in the window when I stop playback.

Re: Melodyne 5 Studio window behavior
Ha yes exactly.
Well the good news is Celemony have got back to me already - impressive Tech support! - with, "There will be a fix for this issue in one of our forthcoming Melodyne release". So that's good news. |

Wow I’m surprised to hear that! Though they were very pleasant to deal with they never acknowledged this was a problem behavior. Maybe they have finally heard from enough people to do something about it. Fingers crossed!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Re: Melodyne 5 Studio window behavior
While I've got a fellow heavy Melodyne user's attention - do you find the ProTools auto-save takes an age when you have a lot of Melodyne tracks on the go? It's fine as long as you don't edit anything, but as soon as you edit even a small portion the spinning wheel of death is there for a good 5 seconds, sometimes even longer, while it's auto-saving. Just another thing that drives me mad.

Re: Melodyne 5 Studio window behavior
I haven’t had the spinners with M5, but use only three or so tracks max. Having all of my Melodyne tracks available in one window is great, btw. I commit them asap but keep the original if I need to tweak it. The spinning wheel could be Melodyne having difficulty writing to your drive, possibly? Melodyne keeps temp files in its own folder, which I think is in your session folder.
