Pitch Correction

Shifts the signal towards the nearest note of a key and scale

What it does

Shifts the signal towards the nearest note of a key and scale

Add it to a track

Select the destination track, open Plugins, and choose Add Effect. Find this device in Library → Devices → Audio Effects. Effects process the signal from the devices before them in the chain.

Controls

ControlWhat to listen or look for
KeyChooses the root note used by the selected musical scale.
ScaleChooses the set of notes used by the pitch or note-processing rules.
AmountSets how strongly detected pitch is pulled toward the chosen scale notes.
RetuneSets how quickly pitch moves to the target note; faster settings give a more obvious corrected effect.
SmoothSmooths changes in the detected pitch to reduce abrupt correction movement.
ShiftMoves pitch up or down in semitones.
FormantShifts the resonant character of the sound, changing vocal-like tone independently of the main pitch shift.
HumanizeSoftens correction behavior to retain more natural pitch variation.
MixBlends the original signal with the processed signal; 100% gives only the processed sound.

Work with this device

Start with a short passage that represents your material. Change one control at a time. Compare at a similar listening level, using the device's power control to bypass it. Save a version of the project before making a large change.
