Tutorial 7:
Precision
This tutorial is actually more of a
demonstration to show the extraordinary
precision with which Auto-Tune 8 can track
and correct intonation problems. If this doesn’t
sound interesting, feel free to proceed to
Tutorial 8 below.
(By this time, we’ll assume you’re comfortable
loading files and calling up Auto-Tune 8.)
1. Arrange the files “C2 Ahhh v3” and “C2
Ohhh v1” so that they are on separate
tracks and can be played simultaneously.
2. Assign a separate instance of Auto-Tune
8 to each of the two tracks and select
Automatic Mode for each of them.
3. In each Auto-Tune 8, set the Retune slider
to .
4. In each Auto-Tune 8, set the Key pop-up to
B-flat.
5. Do whatever your host application
requires to bypass both instances of Auto-
Tune 8.
6. Play back the files so you can hear them
together without processing.
Believe it or not, these vocal samples from a
sample CD are supposed to be the same pitch.
Yikes!
7. Now enable Auto-Tune 8 on each of the
tracks and play the files again.
If you’ve done everything right, you will hear
the samples so well in tune that they sound
like one voice
Tutorial 8:
Make Curve Function
This tutorial will introduce you to the Make
Curve function. The Make Curve function gives
you precise control over pitch accuracy and
inflection.
1. Setup to process the file “Crowd All”
through Auto-Tune 8.
2. Select Graphical Mode.
3. Press the Track Pitch button.
4. Play the “Crowd All” file.
5. Select the Magnifying Glass Tool and drag
out a box on the Pitch Graph that encloses
the red curve for the “-gether” part of
the last word, “together.” You will see
something like the following:
6. Use the I-Beam Tool to drag a selection of
“-gether” in the Pitch or Envelope Display.
The result will be something like the
following:
