Using Melodyne to detect a tonal percussion sound and tune it to the nearest note

So using Ableton's DS FM drum sound generator, I have created a bunch of tonal percussive sounds (128 to be exact). these have been exported and seperated into 128 WAV files for each sound.

Most/all of them do not correcpond to a natural note on the chromatic scale according to Ableton's tuner, but virtually all of them have some kind of tonal body. I have just installed Melodyne5 and I am wondering if it can - 

1) Analyse all of the individual percusson sounds

2) detect their fundimental frequencies (tonal body)

3) shift the overall pitch (the fundimental frequencies) of the sound to the nearest chromatic musical note (ideally not affecting the length of the sound but this is not essential). 

4) export the sound into a WAV file putting in the name of the note somewhere in the file name, for example - "Sound 025 D.WAV" or "Sound 009 F#.WAV"

Any instructions on how to do this on Melodyne will be very appreciated. Cheers!!
