Double-click the clip header - that will open the sound tab with the wave form as shown. Then just click the Melodyne button.
How do I navigate to the Melodyne button please? Editor & Melodyne are not showing in my sound tab.

'Editor' & 'Melodyne' buttons I cannot find in my Sound tab.

How do you get to them please? :)

Tried that - it opens the Sound tab with wave form, but the Edit / Melodyne buttons do not appear, as in my previous attachment.

If you are using the Pro version, it will be different to mine, I think.

Upgraded to PRO.

Still no Edit or Melodyne buttons in the Sound tab.

Please advise.

Thank you.

Buttons appeared after a restart.

What do all the diving lines mean please?

What is the default pitch-correction?

Found a 'snap to G Aeolian' option, which I chose. There's only one (sung to) chord outside that scale,
but the lead note is inside the scale.

Thanks.

There's no 'easy way' to describe how Melodyne works and what all the lines mean, sadly. Best, take a little time and have a look at the videos I shared in my earlier post. Once you get the hang of it, there's nothing better. :D

I'll be doing a YouTube video on the very basics of Melodyne in Mixcraft. Should be done in a day or two - I'll leave a link here.

Trev, I like that you put a harmony stack beneath your lead vocal line in a different color.

You're a real one for doing a video tutorial but you already linked a video tutorial. I'm pretty sure that person refused or just did not look at it.

Out of the loop just now - no voice at all, to play with - flu! 😅👍

Does this (attached) mean I'm singing flat please? The scale was G Natural Minor / G Aeolian.

If so, has Melodyne corrected it, or not?

Does it auto-correct, or is there a button to click, to confirm correction?

Many thanks! :)
