In this mode, you set the S/w to 'TRACK-PICH'. In graphical mode, things get more complicated. In practice, once youve set the Key, Scale & faders just work away, and all your vocals will be magically sorted even really bad pitch errors. and it's quite surprising how transparent this device is, cos sometimes you can visually see Auto-Tune doing a correction, but your ear's can't hear it at work.
The central METER shows you when the Auto-Tune is correcting which also gives you a visual key as well as listening. Open your mixer, add Auto-Tune as the INSERT-FX.
TRACKING - rather like a compressor, this fader sets sensitively the Auto-Tune 'Listens' to the signal when applying re-tuning. RETUNE - This fader sets how FAST Auto-Tune 're-tunes' the signal. SCALE DETUNE - This add's overall up/down tuning to the signal. run the vocal, and then tweak the controls.Ĭheck the image at the top. (Auto-Tune has loads of key-types - more of that later). apply it to a channel, set the key (see your midi sequence), and set the SCALE. Auto & Graphical.Īuto mode does just as it says. so if you're using it to 'Ride' vocals in the background, correcting odd pitch-flaws as you work, you'll need a later model sequencer with INSERT points for DX-Plugins. but for corrective work, the out-of-tune/dodgy-pitch audio needs to be fed thought Auto-Tune. You could i suppose send some signal via an aux-send to Auto-Tune, and use the Auto-tune version to create a harmony, then blend that into the original. and after installing on your hard drive and registering the Plug-in with the system, off you go.Īuto-tune is an INSERT effect, that is, it is designed to be primarily used 'In Series', with the signal passing throught the uto-Tune in it's entirety. It discretely 'Auto-tunes' audio parts/streams, and as well as that it can be used for creative effects too like re-tuning melodies, or adding vibrato to vocals.Īuto-Tune is a Windoze 'Direct-X' plugin, working with any Direct-x compatible s/w like VST, Logic, Cakewalk, etc. Antares Auto-Tune does exactly what it says on the tin.
