Pitch Doctor or Auto Tune

using pitch doctor, I have the feeling that the groove gets changed, because of the latency pitch doctor is producing. However, the sound of pitch doctor is smoother then the autotune one. Im using autotune mostly in grafic mode. What I also would try is, intonator and melodyne, before decideing- the coolest tool is actually melodyne, but melodyne affects the sound pretty much- cuts HF and ads an unnatural fx on ssss, almost robotic. In that case Im using the sss from the non tuned take. Intonator should be close to the autotune soundwise. I use them all- depends on the material. On complex stuff, I record 4 takes with each tuner and cut and paste the best one together- a lot of work but gives you the best possible result. Especially with vocals. tc- intonator

Thanks so much for the info....very very detailed! Actually for what I will be using it for is probably easier anyway. I have a track of chromatic notes of an instrument from bottom to top and I just need for it to correct the pitch on the track. The demo I used of autotune worked "ok" but about every 6th note it would just butcher the sound completely. The other annoying thing that I noticed is that it would correct a note great until the release of the note and then it would jump up or down and make that pitch unuseable. Sounds like I need to check out pitch doctor! Thanks again! Larry

For overall Sound 'quality' I much prefer Pitch Doctor. Just duplicate the playlist and shift earlier 89ms. You seem to have a bit more control for automating with the parameters on PitchDoctor. Rob

I got Pitch Doctor with my bundle but haven't messed with it much. I've always been an Autotune user. Without a "Graphical" mode, how is Pitch Doctor used is in any way other than automatic real-time correction? thanks drew

Wow! (The Management is not amused!) Hey guys? Do you think using Autotune in automatic mode should be made ilegal?

To tune just a static series of chromatic nots from an instrument (i assume you want to use it for a sampler?) just divy up the individual notes load em into your sampler and tune em up in there with a tuner or by ear. It doesnt make sense to use a program that willl never do it as acurately as by hand if you'r not tuning a performace but merely a series of notes.

Uno1234, WOW great comments man! It's people like you that make this forum rock! About the 89ms thing. If you just have one track (total) you wouldn't have to worry about that would you?
