Celemony Melodyne Editor 2 VST Pitch Correction Software Plug-in Pitch Correction Plug-in With Direct Note Access (DNA)

Vocal polishing of the highest quality, the removal of wrong notes from piano recordings, incredible harmonic and rhythmic freedom: Melodyne Editor 2 is the most powerful edition of our one-track product family and offers you the entire spectrum of Melodyne's award-winning capabilities.

Unique and award winning
Melodyne editor, with its Direct Note Access technology, makes possible what had previously been considered impossible: access to individual notes in polyphonic audio material. Correct wrong notes in a piano recording; change the chords in a guitar accompaniment after the recording is over; refashion a sample lick. Only Melodyne editor gives you the freedom to work like this with audio. And allows you to do things you could only dream of doing before.

Edit music and not just audio data
With Melodyne editor you can edit your audio material in an intuitive and flexible way. Simply move an audio note to a different pitch or a different position. Make notes longer or shorter, louder or softer. Delete notes from chords or add new ones by copying. Use a multitude of scales, create your own or extract scales from audio recordings. Control the timing in detail and even the time course within notes. These functions for shaping audio will give you an experience you don‘t want to miss.

Best sound, best reputation, best of company
Melodyne editor is at home in all the great studios of the world and can be heard on countless productions. Leading producers are of one voice in praising the sound quality, flexibility, speed and reliability. Whether used as a problem solver in the hard day-to-day work of production or as a source of ideas and creative tool: Melodyne editor quickly becomes indispensible and inspires time and again.

The future of audio
Melodyne editor will change the way you work with audio. The note-based approach and intuitive operation of Melodyne editor will soon seem so natural to you and so much a matter of course that you will no longer regard audio as something fixed and given but quite simply as music. As music you can shape and refashion virtually at will. To correct and optimize or fully restructure in order to make new ideas reality. This is how we picture the future of audio editing. And with Melodyne editor, this future is yours already today.

Monophonic and polyphonic material
In the case of monophonic (solo voice, saxophone, bass guitar...) and polyphonic (piano, guitar...) audio material, the following possibilities exist for editing notes:

• modifying the pitch
• modifying the pitch drift
• modifying the pitch modulation
• modifying the position
• modifying the length
• modifying the attack speed
• modifying the time course within notes
• modifying the volume
• shifting the formant spectrum
• modifying the pitch of any transition between notes
• modifying the volume of any transition between notes
• shifting the formant spectrum of any transition between notes
• timing (re-)quantization, manually or via macro
• pitch quantization, manually or via macro
• cut, copy and paste

If, in the case of polyphonic material, two or more instruments play a note of the same pitch on the same beat, one note only, representing the combined sound of the instruments in question, is available for editing (no separation of instruments).

Rhythmic and complex material
In the case of rhythmic and complex material, separation is according to beats, so if several notes (e.g. click and snare) sound on the same beat, they are available for editing in the shape of one Melodyne blob only. For such blobs, the following editing possibilities exist:

• modifying the pitch (relative)
• modifying the position
• modifying the length
• modifying the volume
• modifying the attack speed
• modifying the time course within notes
• shifting the formant spectrum
• modifying the volume transition between blobs
• shifting the formant spectrum of transitions between blobs
• timing quantization, manually or via macro
• cut, copy and paste

System requirements

• Intel Dual Core processor, 4 GB RAM, OS X 10.5 or later
• Intel or AMD Dual Core processor, 4 GB RAM, Windows XP (SP2 or SP3), Windows Vista or Windows 7, ASIO-compatible audio hardware
