ARA2.0 + Melodyne
Deeply integrating Melodyne into the Pro Tools application using the ARA2.0 SDK and providing the infrastructure to implement additional ARA plug-ins in the future with ease
Here is a blog I wrote about this feature when it was released: https://www.avid.com/resource-center/ara-melodyne
Deep Integration
By using the ARA2.0 SDK, I was able to make the Melodyne integration feel like the pitch and time tool was part of Pro Tools.
By linking the data models, the idea of ‘round tripping’ audio between the client application and the plug-in became a thing of the past!
The tab system that I designed to contain Melodyne also became an extensible new UI element that could be leveraged for many other Pro Tools user interfaces that needed real estate in the application.
