Dear blahblahblah,
Today begins the second round of our beta-testing of the new Melodyne editor. The stand-alone version has already been undergoing practical testing for around three weeks now (thanks, all you testers, for your great feedback!); now it’s being joined by the plug-in versions for Mac OS and Windows.
The plug-ins have been thoroughly tested for the latest versions of the following hosts: Digidesign Pro Tools 8.0.1, Ableton Live 8.0.5, Steinberg Cubase 5.1.0, and Apple Logic 9.0.2. They will also run flawlessly with many other applications or versions, but incompatibilities could still exist with older versions or particular configurations. Please report any problems in our forum. That will help us with the task of adapting to different hosts and versions.
Please note, when doing your testing, that the beta versions…
… are not compatible with data from the old Melodyne plugin (though the coming release version will be). You can therefore run Melodyne editor beta and Melodyne plugin at the same time
… are also not compatible with the coming release version of editor. It will therefore not be possible to carry on using data created by the beta plug-in with the release version (or else, you will have to bounce it first)
Before you now download your personal installer, we would like to draw your attention to our web site. There you will find three films that describe clearly the most important functions and operating procedures. Please take a look, it’s worth it!
You will also find the user manual and a few audio files, details on installation and activation, and our forum through which all communication regarding the beta-testing is being conducted. In the forum, you will also find a list of all bugs that have been discovered and already fixed.

Your personal beta version will therefore only run on computers with an edition of Melodyne already installed and activated. Because of the missing license data, the beta version will not launch on new computers or computers on which Melodyne has been deactivated.
If you use an iLok for your existing Melodyne licenses, you must also operate this beta version with the iLok. It’s very simple, though, because when you download the installer, an iLok license of limited duration is sent automatically to your account. All you have to do is go to iLok.com and download it to your iLok.
Regardless of whether you have already been participating in the beta testing or are just starting now, here’s the link to your personal beta installer:

We hope you will enjoy using the second beta version of the new Melodyne editor and look forward to your feedback.
Kindest regards,
all at Celemony
