Pro Tools Tip – Conflict with Melodyne & MP3 export

Just an FYI if you use Pro Tools and Melodyne and ever want to use the MP3 export function.

I came across this today (don’t I have the best luck?), isn’t it lovely. [click to embiggen]

It turns out there’s is a conflict with Melodyne Plugin & the MP3 Export for Pro Tools. The FAQ on Celemony’s website has this info to correct the situation.

Exporting audio as MP3 can lead to a crash with the error message: Set ENV Var KMP_Duplicate_Lib_ok = True. If this happens, proceed as follows:

  • Right-click My computer and choose Properties.
  • In the System Properties window, click on the Advanced tab and select Environment Variables.
  • In the User Variables section, select New.
  • Enter KMP_DUPLICATE_LIB_OK into the Variable Name field.
  • Enter TRUE into the Variable Value field.
  • Click OK to exit first the New User Variable, then Environment Variables, then System Properties windows.
  • Restart Pro Tools

I can confirm this works.
