Unable to resize or change key in Melodyne

Post by jawidge »

I'm using latest version of Mixcraft 9 and Melodyne Studio 5.
When I use the embedded Melodyne, I'm unable to resize the Melodyne window and cannot change the key.
I have the same problem when I use the VST version of Melodyne as well.
Any suggestions?

Hi,

Try undocking the details area, then hover your cursor over the very corner of the screen, so that you see this cursor:

You should be able to drag and resize the Melodyne area.

In regard to the other problem, what do you mean when you say you can't change the key? Are you trying to use the Key/Scale function? Starting with Melodyne 5, Celemony changed the way that works, and a side effect of that change is that it doesn't work within Mixcraft.

That doesn't work, cursor doesn't change. Normally there are some small diagonal lines at the bottom right corner to indicate the "resize" is available. Doesn't appear on mine,

As per the key change -- I have the latest Melodyne so I guess that function doesn't work. Since Melodyne doesn't seem to figure out the key very well, not being able to manually change it is a big problem for me. I hope the programmers will fix this.
Thanks for the help

Hi,

Not sure why you wouldn't be able to resize, it's working for me. It is a pretty small target, right on the very corner.

Do you have Mixcraft 9.0 build 469?

Guys, was this fixed in someway?? If I can't change the base key, then Melodyne is completely hamstringed, if not practically useless. When I follow the instructions to change the key, the expected dialog box does not show up.
