Hi -
A problem came up using Revoice Pro 5 (RVP) via ARA, but I’m guessing the solution might be generalizable to Melodyne, SpectraLayers, etc.
I was using the ARA program (RVP, for vocal tuning/timing) when Cubase crashed. I had no problem finishing the work in the ARA program even after that, hearing all the edits properly during RVP playback, and saving the project in RVP.
But when I rebooted Cubase … I couldn’t figure out how to connect it back to the correct RVP project so that when I played the vocal in Cubase I could hear the changes I’d made in RVP.
I tried the following:
- Removed all Cubase extensions.
- Opened the RVP session that had all my edits in place.
- Added the RVP extension back to the Cubase vocal track.
- Played the vocal segment via Cubase
The result of that is that Cubase did not access the ARA-based RVP, and therefore playback in Cubase was the unedited vocal track - there was no extension Cubase connected to that I could “Make Permanent”.
And just to make sure the RVP changes I’d made were still intact - yup, when I played the RVP project, I could hear all the edits properly in RVP.
Thanks for any help!
