How to Use the Automatic Mode for Instant Pitch Correction
The Automatic Mode of Autotune 7.08 is the easiest and fastest way to correct pitch problems in real time. It detects the pitch of the input signal, identifies the closest pitch in a user-specified scale, and corrects the input pitch to match the scale pitch. You can adjust the Retune Speed control to match the retune rate to virtually any performance style or create the Auto-Tune Vocal Effect.
To use the Automatic Mode of Autotune 7.08 on Mac, you need to do the following:
- Select a scale and key from the drop-down menus at the top of the plugin window. You can choose from minor, major, chromatic, or 26 historical and microtonal scales.
- Adjust the Retune Speed knob to set how fast or slow the pitch correction is applied. A lower value means faster correction, which can result in a robotic sound. A higher value means slower correction, which can result in a more natural sound.
- Adjust the Humanize knob to add some variation and randomness to the pitch correction. This can make the vocals sound more human and less processed.
- Adjust the Natural Vibrato knob to control how much of the original vibrato is preserved or enhanced in the corrected signal.
- Adjust the Flex-Tune knob to control how much deviation from the scale pitch is allowed before correction is applied. This can make the vocals sound more expressive and less rigid.
- Adjust the Transpose knob to shift the pitch of the entire input signal up or down by semitones.
- Adjust the Formant knob to change the timbre or character of the voice without affecting the pitch.
- Adjust the Throat Length knob to simulate changes in vocal tract length, which can affect both pitch and formant.
- Adjust the Tracking knob to set how closely Autotune follows changes in pitch. A higher value means more accurate tracking, which can result in smoother correction. A lower value means less accurate tracking, which can result in more artifacts or glitches 51082c0ec5
