I think this was just a coincidence with your Melodyne install. It looks totally separate.....

From Microsoft: Trojan:BAT/Killav.DJ!MSR - is a detection for a batch script which attempts to terminate the Windows Defender process MSASCui.exe.

in the past when Melodyne released a new version, I would get an email with an upgrade price. I have not received anything about Melodyne 5. What is everyone else's experience? Those who upgraded: did you take the initiative? Or did you follow their invitation?

As of today I have not received an email from Celemony either. After reading about the upgrade here I went on their web site and ordered the upgrade.

I did receive an email the first day it was released but it did not include a price. I am a Melodyne Studio user and it took me a little bit of searching for the upgrade price. How I finally found it was by logging into my account and fumbling around in that area. Mind you this was the very first day it was released. I did purchase the upgrade for I believe $149. I know I could of got it cheaper from Sweetwater and others but I was a little excited. It is one of my favorite tools.

Well I must be “lucky” I’ve not only received emails but more annoyingly I get sent off to the Celemony WEB Site regularly to be reminded about the update whilst using Melodyne. I rarely use Melodyne so at this time I don’t see a need to update. I use it mostly for converting audio to MIDI but have found using Reatune in Reaper probably does it easier. For monophonic tracks Reatune seems a really good tool for tuning a track and in my humble opinion easier all round than Melodyne.

last evening I watched all 18 videos about the new Melodyne 5. It's a pretty impressive update to an already amazing product! I hope they've finally solved the problem with artifacts. We'll see in a few minutes... getting ready to install it now!

I have a trial version of Melodyne 5. I Have a problem with playback. When I double click on the ruler I’m supposed to have melodyne and the DAW track play at the same time. This does not happen. My DAW track plays back without a vocal and I hear nothing from the Melodyne track. What am I doing wrong? I can’t get this to work. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I was on the fence about going to Melodyne 5 but I watched Mike Enjo’s video and some of the features looked good. I got some money refunded for the trip to Europe I paid for last year but cannot take due to the lockdown, so I thought why not.

Well I’m totally surprised and thrilled to bits.

I usually use Melodyne for converting a bit of whatever audio to MIDI. For example a RealTrack when there is something I don’t like about the instrument but like what is played. Often however there is quite a bit of playing about in Melodyne 4 such as deleting or moving blobs. Sometimes it is hard to get the chords and or picking just how it was.

Today I pulled the audio of some Realtracks I had played with in the past into Sonar. Used Melodyne 5 with ARA. Melodyne 5 neatly found the chords and correct notes saved it as MIDI. Unlike in the past the MIDI came up clean without a heap of extra notes I did not want. This was both for piano, bass and guitar.

All I then had to do was pull in the MIDI tracks apply them to the instrument and away it went. Very easy and done in no time. I was able to put in what was a RealTrack picking on a nylon string guitar and apply the picking to the AmpleSound Martin Acoustic. Also a piano track that I didn’t like the tone so much put the track to Addictive Keys where I could set my own tone.

A long story but what I’m trying to say is the Melodyne 5 update is well worth it IMHO.
