So many people complaining, but this is one of the greatest advancements in Audio engineering ever. Sure a guitarist could just play and rerecord, noone is disputing that a real musician can pull any of this off. That is not the point, the point is that now any sound recorded, can be treated as MIDI. That, for the entire sampling musical production world, is an absolute GOD SEND. Live musicians and producers are very different things! This is just a door opening, not closing...
I`ve no issue with using technology to help the creative process, but you just know the main use of this type of software is to airbrush poor musicians and performers.
I prefer to see my bands actually play their stuff live to a high level of ability.
i think this is awesome! i am a talented guitarist/songwriter and this could really help to come up with new ideas and break out of writting slumps. by just moving a couple of things around you could make something you'd never naturally write or play.
you'll still need to be talented to be capable of learning and playing/transposing the music.
I'm not really worried about this hijacking music talent. After all, we have seen already those bands that can play live and those who fall apart because their albums have so much re-touching and not foundation of talent.
Real musicians will always be able to pull that crap off better than a computer. Sure you can switch from major to minor in 2 seconds...for musicians we can do it live in front of people, and that came from long hours alone practicing. This crap has no good practical use. Notice the steady decline in the quality of music. The more technology has improved, the worse music has gotten. Thats why I stick to a Fender Bass, and Ampeg Stack and thats THAT!
Hmm...I just realized that I have no idea which discipline of science audio engineering is considered to belong to. Physics? What departments do these guys study at?
Audio engineering is a rather loose term that pulls from acoustics, psycho acoustics, and engineering [electrical and others] (all of which pull from physics).
Acoustical engineering is different, because it is the application of sound control in the real world.
There are many different kinds of jobs associated with both.
Mastering engineers, mixing ", Live sound ", and others
true, but if you have been in the recording studio as long as me and my father. there are some times we record and we come back later to find there was a mess up, and then the guitar player is gone or wont play it again. we dont need to hire a new person. just fix it.. very practical.
so.... What recording and engineering school have you been to... exactly. what the do with people and there voices these days is close but not the same. they went thru machines yes. but there are changeing notes that are not midi. there not talking just about vocals.
it was time, that the technic of some mathematics in fourier transforms comes in that way to the music production world. Mr. Peter knows fourier transforms well but a Nobel Prize? He man!!
Its simple and interesting mathematics. Same way in Adobe Audition 3.
You better be up on your theory....if not you can potentially be making a musical mess. But none the less this is a freaking scary breakthrough. Major kudos Melodyne. Think of the time I will save recording choirs.
how can you use that direct note access? i cant find it

This would be an interesting way to get a fake 12-string guitar. Just get a 6-string, add some octaves and unisons, and voila

just like learning a song someone else wrote.

So really, it all comes down to physics but, it is a specially application of physics through a special type of engineering.
: )
The guys who developed this program were probably involved in everything from:
acoustics to audio engineering to computer scientists

there is a way (fouriesrs dontknowwhat) to decompose waves to its fundamentals, i think its about this.

theory? if you "make a mess" dont you think your ears might tell you its a mess? and if they dont maybe it isnt a mess at all....
its so great, now people dont have to play in time or in tune, some poor sucker can sort it all out later...
