To do this, use the Duplicate Tracks command in Cubase/Nuendo’s Project menu. Sometimes you may want to copy a track including its Melodyne instance and Melodyne editing – in order, for instance, to generate a second voice. Melodyne will automatically restore the parameters found there, so there is no need to archive or copy them separately. When archiving and passing on projects, you do not need to worry about Melodyne’s audio cache, the size and location of which can be selected from Melodyne’s Preferences dialog. Only then will the “Melodyne” folder be included in the back-up. If you are making a copy of your project using the “Back-up Project” command, please be sure to open the back-up project immediately one time.

This means that if you want to be sure, when archiving your project or passing it on to others, that all instances of Melodyne will be able subsequently to find the audio files they need, the only thing you need to archive or pass on is the project folder. Within the Cubase/Nuendo project structure, the resulting audio files are stored inside the specially created “Melodyne” folder in a sub-folder called “Transfers”.

Backing up and exchanging projectsĭuring transfers, Melodyne records the track’s signal, making a copy of the passages transferred. In order to use your compressor, EQ and other effects in the usual way, you need therefore to make sure they come after Melodyne Plugin in the signal chain. The reason is this: during the transfer, Melodyne records the input signal you intend to edit – and with it all effects ahead of it in the signal chain, which are then frozen into the signal and can no longer be adjusted. You are advised to insert Melodyne in the first plug-in slot – before the compressor, EQ or other effects. You will find Melodyne Plugin in the ‘Plug-Ins’ folder, where it is listed as ‘Celemony Melodyne’. Insert Melodyne into one of the plug-in slots of the desired track. Please take note also of the information regarding the compatibility of Melodyne with Cubase/Nuendo on our website. On this tour, you will learn how to make efficient use of Melodyne within Cubase and Nuendo. Exporting/printing Melodyne edits (audio mixdown).
