Most Ableton Users Miss This Hidden Vocal Tuning Trick (Melodyne Hack)

Ableton Live doesn’t have a built-in pitch editor, so we use Melodine—but most people are doing it the long, painful way. Real-time transfers? Nah mate, we’re not doing that anymore.

In this video, I’ll show you how to set up Melodine as your default sample editor in Ableton Live so your vocals open instantly. No more waiting around for that real-time transfer. You just click “Edit” and boom—it’s in Melodine, ready to go.

⚠️ Quick heads-up: this method prints the tuning, so always back up your original vocal first. I’ll show you how to do that, too.

What you’ll learn:

✅ How to save HOURS tuning vocals in Ableton
✅ The right way to consolidate and prep audio
✅ Why Warp needs to be OFF for this to work
✅ How to avoid overwriting your vocal takes
✅ The one button that makes this whole thing magic

🎯 Bonus: I’ll show you how to replace the audio once it’s tuned, without the faff.
