There are, however, also some good competitors, some of whom are in fact better than it.
When you use haw-haw effects on the voice, you can produce a strange but beautiful timbre, just like the electric guitar. Many people believe that Antares Auto-Tune is the only pitch correction plug-in available thanks to endorsements from T-Pain, Kanye West, and Lil Wayne. Plug-ins for pitch correction are typically used to produce the over-processed T-Pain/Cher effect or create a transparent yet inaudible sound by carefully sculpting melodies. The plug-ins can also correct intonation errors on instruments like bass guitars and stringed instruments, although this is not their only function. However, it does open up a world of possibilities given a bit of time and effort.In today's modern music production workflows, plug-ins that provide pitch correction assistance have become an important element since they allow producers to quickly rectify pitch issues in recorded vocal performances. Extreme sample manipulation and remixing are two examples.įor these, and perhaps film post-production, it's a great tool, though at about £325, not a frivolous purchase. PITCHMAP is predominantly for those times when there's no possibility of accessing the separate elements. The next best thing is to correct it separately from other recorded parts. In day-to-day recording scenarios, it's usually easier to re-record an individual part than correct its pitch within the context of a full mix. However, they do throw up a few questions. It's inevitable that we'll see more processors like this in the future, as they're a natural extension to monophonic pitch correction. In fact, this element of its use should not be underestimated.Ĭombined with the need to learn what each control does (though aided by the information included when hovering over a parameter), and the rather small main display window, PITCHMAP is by no means a 'set and forget' processor. Similarly, in practice PITCHMAP requires a reasonable degree of user intervention to get the best results.
Like its compatriot, Celemony's Melodyne DNA, PITCHMAP is a product that promises much, and on paper (and in the demos), produces great results when applied to a range of pitch-correction tasks. Besides the main display, copious small buttons and a Threshold control, the interface uses four colour-coded knobs (cryptically labelled Feel, Purify, Gide and Electrify) to adjust the audio engine.
