I upgraded my laptop from Windows 10 to Windows 11. Melodyne 4 doesn't work in Windows 11 unfortunately. So I had to install Melodyne 5. And now when I open the Ableton project including Melodyne 4 it shows me "The Plugin Is Not Found". It doesn't load v5 as v4. Probably they have different IDs. How do you open edits from v4 to v5 in Ableton? Is there any option for importing or saving? Or moving data from the old machine?

I have just noticed that the latest v5 is VST3 and not VST2 as v4.

Another thing I noticed is the presets' extensions have changed from .fxb to .vstpreset. So the preset saved in v4 as .fxb can't be opened in v5 which uses .vstpreset

Your best bet is to email Celemony. I've found them quite helpful.

 

I am here not there because... It is obvious

 

System requirements
For Melodyne 5 essential, assistant, editor and studio
- Interfaces Plugin operation via VST3, AU or AAX. ARA operation with compatible DAWs, as specified in the DAW compatibility overview.

Ableton Live
We have tested the current versions of Melodyne 5 in the following configurations.
Live 12.0 (VST3) under: Windows 11

You shouldn't actually do any updates at all if you have important projects.
You should have saved in VST3 in your previous project. I don't think they can produce that anymore.
