I'm sitting here correcting the timing of an acoustic guitar track. I started out in Melodyne and now I'm back in Reason. Melodyne added too much artefacts (and it has too many options to do simple tasks).

Reason has great stretching, but melodyne excels at pitching though

Ditto, they're two very different tools.

Did you put melodyne into percussive mode? That might give you better a time stretch sound.

I have Melodyne and agree they are two different tools, but did you ever notice this:

Of course adding a pitch bend automation lane to an audio track doesn't actually do anything in the current version, but it was put there for a "Reason". :puf_wink:

you can route pitch bend and other midi automation to an insert effect on the audio channel

and by the way. which software do u use and have to use melodyne for stretching? I thought all DAW's had their own feature implemented by now... Melodyne is not really made for that, I think.

Yes, but pitch corrections and tiny timing corrections often went hand in hand :roll:

Yes but pitch correction requires an entirely different method, so the timing correction function when using the pitched algorithm may still make use of the pitch correction algorithm.

Yes, but you can't bend or automate the pitch of an audio track.

hm ... Neptune und Polar come into my mind ... or loading the audio into a sampler and then apply pitch bend

Okay, it seems we're talking about two different things here. I'm talking about automating the pitch bend of a recorded audio clip directly in the audio track lane. Currently you can only transpose audio clips up or down in scale.

You're right. A pitch slide on an audio clip is not possible.
