Finally, Steinberg Cubase and also, Nuendo have integrated ARA (Audio Random Acces) interface extension in their latest updates. As a result, for example, Celemony Melodyne is now far easier to use in Cubase or Nuendo. 10.0.30 for Cubase and 10.1 for Nuendo are the releases we are talking about. The communication with ARA capable plugins is now a piece of cake.
In the case of Melodyne, for example, ARA makes time-consuming transfers unnecessary, allowing you instead to just open the desired audio events directly in Melodyne – almost as though Melodyne were one of the DAW’s own editors. Furthermore, Melodyne now also follows automatically whenever you move, shorten, lengthen, copy or mute audio events in the DAW, which considerably simplifies the subsequent rearranging of Melodyne-edited content.
ARA offers Steinberg users far faster and simpler access to Melodyne‘s powerful audio correction and sound design functions. These include tried-and-tested, musically sensitive functions for the editing of vocals as well as instruments of all kinds, workflow advantages such as Multitrack Note Editing for the simultaneous editing of notes on multiple tracks, and the unique possibilities afforded by the Melodyne Sound Editor for tone coloration and filtering. And all this with the Grammy Award-winning sound quality that is Melodyne’s hallmark!
To use Melodyne with ARA in Cubase or Nuendo, you need Cubase version 10.0.30 (or later) or Nuendo version 10.1 (or later) and Melodyne version 4.2.2 (or later).Â
