Wondering about Hit 'n' Mix Infinity
https://hitnmix.com/infinity/
I suppose it is a VSTi?
Looks very interesting and costs $299.
Seems similar to Melodyne.

I am surprised 
at the lack of interest in Infinity.
I wonder if can use my samples or is it restricted to the samples provided?

I've used this program for a few years now (since version 2 was released) and this program is useful for a few things!
The positives:
1. You can break down tracks and listen to each note individually (and quickly transcribe a track or melody if you aren't musically inclined)
2. If you want to extract an element, you can. However, be prepared to do lots of refinements either in the program (paid version only) or outside of it in a spectral editor.
3. It can be a neat way to visualize a music track. It's pretty to look at!
4. If you know Python and own the paid edition, then you can write your own scripts and extensions. I can't code, but it seems to be pretty capable...
5. The developers are quick to respond to any inquiries or questions you may have. The support is top-notch!
6. With each new version, their algorithms improve a lot. Seeing how far they've come since 1.x is insane. They have some neat things going on under the hood, such as smart "drum attenuation" when there's a long note being held.
The negatives:
1. This program, in it's current form, is very CPU intensive. I cannot stress this enough... I have an HP Z600 workstation which has 2 Xeon 5675 CPUs (12 cores and 24 threads total) and it maxes out the CPU at 100% for roughly 10 minutes and it will let me see the track and edit it then...
2. The results, in most cases, need lots of refinement and cleaning up before they can be used for whatever it is you're looking to do. If you are simply editing isolated samples, this program is the best available. If you want to separate a song into the individual parts, be prepared to do a lot of post-processing / editing!
To end this post, this program has come quite a long way since it's inception and I always look forward to any updates which come out for it...
BTW: It's not a VST. It's standalone software.
I edited this post to reflect on the current version.

h919078,
Thanks for the lengthy review.
I still wonder why so tittle attention has been given to Infinity.
Too bad it is not a VST. Not a deal breaker but will make me hesitate.
Does it ever go on sale, perhaps on Black Friday?
Tools: clone, paint, erase, pattern and blend audio, all using sound and brush settings from an Instrument Palette. Tools included see https://hitnmix.com/audioshop/
An alternative to Infinity is Iris 2 which lacks some of the tools.
Is another alternative Melodyne?
Do you have any idea how they compare.

It looks absolutely incredible!!!! Must be one of the most poorly marketed software out there.

Infinity for audio editing, correcting problems or improving a track or song.
For me I would mostly use it for creating ambient music.
I wonder of the selection tools available.
Are we near a version 3 release?

Not sure how I thought it was version 2.
Ok now Infinity is in V4.2 and Melodyne is in V4.2
Coincidence?
I could not locate a manual. Is there one?
No Infinity forum?
Would be great to see a Black Friday one time Super Intro price.
I would buy!

They were at 1.5.8 until 2016, which is when version 2.0 was released. If I remember right, version 2.5.0 came out in 2017, and then in 2018 version 3.0 came out. Mind you, 3 introduced the new "dark" UI which is seen in v4, but it had none of the tools (such as Audioshop and RipScripts). 3.1.0 was released shortly after 3 came out, and then version 4 was released.
This application has been around for a very long time now (since early 2010!) and has evolved over the years. This particular release (4) has an unbelievable amount of cool stuff added! The future looks bright for this application.

I'm surprised I have never heard of this one if it has been around since 2010. Looks interesting! I'd like to see a comparison chart of its features next to Melodyne's to see what advantages there are of one over the other.

I wonder if there are RipScripts made by Hit 'n' Mix or users available for all to use.
At this point not sure how useful they are but I suspect they will be.

Thanks to h919078's posts above I go it.
Deeper than I thought it would be.
Having fun with it and can see a lot of potential!
First impression so far
