Available for download, Celemony Melodyne 5 Studio is a pitch and rhythm adjustment software widely recognized for its ability to tune and realign notes rhythmically. Professional mixing engineers often use this industry-standard software to improve the performance of parts that don't quite meet expectations, in both monophonic and polyphonic situations.
Melodyne 5 Studio is also useful for stretching the tempo and changing the tempo of entire mixes.
Version 5 Studio offers many new features and numerous improvements over version 4. A new "Fade" tool allows for precise control over dynamics, allowing you to naturally change the level and intensity of any note without the need compression or traditional automation. A "Level Macro" can perform dynamics control more comprehensively without sacrificing musical results. It is now possible to control sibilance more effectively without the need for a dedicated de-esser, thanks to the new "Sibilant" tool.
The new "Melodic" algorithm adjusts material to preserve its fundamental humanity and natural sound, including sibilance detection. For tuned instruments such as tablas or 808 drums, Melodyne 5 Studio offers a new "Percussive Pitch" algorithm. Editing chords is also much easier with the new "Chord Track".
Improvements have been made to shortcut integration and saving presets. Additionally, the file saving system has been reworked: there are no longer separate .mdd files; All detection data is now saved in the audio file itself, simplifying the file directory in the process.
Melodyne 5 Studio can be used standalone, but can also communicate with your DAW through ARA integration and can be used as a VST, AU or AAX plug-in. It is compatible with Mac and Windows operating systems.
What's new in Melodyne 5:
- Fade Tool: Extensive control of dynamics with note-based fades.
- "Sibilant" tool: per-note adjustment of the volume ratio between tuned and untuned vocal sounds (de-essing).
- New "Melodic" algorithm with sibilance detection for natural results.
- New leveling macro to reduce or eliminate excessive volume disparities between notes.
- New "Percussive Pitched" algorithm for instruments such as tablas, berimbaus or 808 drums.
- Search functions for keyboard shortcuts and improvements to saving custom shortcut sets.
- Detection data is now saved in the audio files themselves, eliminating separate .mdd files.
