No ARA2 support for Melodyne, which i find weird since they use Melodyne engine for Audio to Midi feature. At least is a good start, hope next time will implement ARA2 as well...

Discuss.


Cheers!

It seems like it’s improving...[emoji12]

Nice. Bounce Mix will be handy.


I was hoping there would be some work to address CPU stability on Windows. Maybe that did not make the notice.

Re: ProTools 2020.11
 

Where are you getting this from?
And I'm not sure I understand the new "bounce mix" feature. How has it changed?

Re: ProTools 2020.11
 

From the forthcoming release. Bounce Mix has a lot new features!


Bounce Mix (formerly Bounce to Disk) lets you export your mix, including sub-mixes, to multiple file formats without having to create extra dedicated audio tracks in your session for bus recording. Bouncing writes to separate audio files, so you do not have to reserve any tracks for a bounce. A bounce can be done offline (faster than real-time) or in real-time (so you can listen to audio playback of your mix during the bounce process).
You can use the Bounce Mix command to export loops, sub-mixes, stems, or any other session audio. You can use it to create final mono, stereo, and multichannel master files in any of several audio file formats. Bounce Mix also provides conversion options for sample rate, bit resolution, and format. It will even let you automatically import bounced files after the bounce is complete. Use Bounce Mix presets to store and recall your most commonly used Bounce settings.

Hmm, I’m with Simon. I still don’t get what is different with Bounce Mix...
I guess some real world examples will show what it’s good for.

Best

Sounds the same to me...???

I don't see a press release on line

Thanks for the info anyway

Re: ProTools 2020.11
 

Am I reading it right? it will integrate Melodyne?

Re: ProTools 2020.11
 

It'll just convert audio to MIDI. You know, like Logic's been able to do for something like a bazillion years.

Re: ProTools 2020.11
 

only for converting audio to midi. Wich is also welcomed for using drum sample...

This new version looks good
