That's great timing - I'm just coming to the end of the SurfaceReader
project and was thinking of taking a look at
this application, given its
built-in Mackie support.
Best wishes.

Subject: [ddots-l] Celemony Releases the ARA Development Environment
I wonder, could this give us some sort of
backdoor access to Melodyne? They
mention an SDK so perhaps someone with
programming experience can shed some
light on this, and whether it may benefit us or
not, re. gaining access to
Melodyne.
Here's the press release.
Munich, 2012-07-12 (ictw) - As of today, the ARA Audio Random Access
interface extension is available to all software
manufacturers. ARA allows
for the improved integration of Melodyne and
similar plug-ins into digital
audio workstations (DAWs).
As an extension of existing plug-in interfaces
such as VST or Audio Unit,
ARA opens an additional channel of communication
through which the DAW and
plug-in are able to exchange information about
the audio files and their
placement in the song, as well as over their
tempo, pitch, rhythm and more.
The plug-in is ?far closer to the action" in the
DAW and therefore works
considerably more efficiently; the DAW, for its
part, is able to integrate
the plug-in and take specific advantage of its
strengths, as though the
plug-in were part of the DAW itself.

ARA has been implemented in Presonus Studio One as well as in Melodyne
editor, assistant and essential since the end of last year. The
ARA-facilitated interaction between Studio One
and Melodyne leads to a very
user-friendly workflow that goes far beyond
anything previously afforded by
plug-in interfaces and allows a still more
effective use of Melodyne. With
the ARA Software Development Kit (SDK), other
manufacturers of DAWs and
plug-ins can now integrate ARA into their own products free of charge.
?Since Melodyne thanks to ARA is now
integrated more seamlessly into
Studio One, there are fewer hurdles and you can
play with it in a far more
musical way. A fact reflected in the spontaneous
enthusiasm shown by users,
which was nice to see,? says Melodyne software
architect Carsten Gehle, who
emphasizes in a film in Celemony's Melodyne tech
talk series that during the
development of ARA other manufacturers were
taken into consideration from
the start: ?Since we developed ARA in collaboration with Presonus, it
reflects the points-of-view of both plug-in and DAW manufacturers.
Furthermore, we've made ARA as open as possible, so that as many
applications as possible can benefit from it.?
