Introducing Auto-Tune Evo
The Next Generation of the Worldwide Standard in Professional Pitch Correction
The Fastest, Easiest-To-Use, Highest-Quality Tool for Correcting Pitch
Hailed
as a "holy grail of recording," by Recording magazine (and adopted
worldwide as the largest-selling audio plug-in of all time), Auto-Tune
corrects intonation problems in vocals or solo instruments, in real
time, without distortion or artifacts, while preserving all of the
expressive nuance of the original performance - with audio quality so
pristine that the only difference between what goes in and what comes
out is the intonation. All with a user-interface that is a model of
clarity, speed and ease-of-use.
For most common pitch
problems, Auto-Tune Evo's Automatic Mode instantaneously detects the
pitch of the input, identifies the closest pitch in a user-specified
scale (including minor, major, chromatic and 26 historical and
microtonal scales), and corrects the input pitch to match the scale
pitch. A Retune Speed control lets you match the retune rate to
virtually any performance style.
For meticulous tweaking, the Graphical Mode displays the performance's
detected pitch envelope and allows you to specify the desired pitch
using a variety of graphics tools. This mode gives complete control
over the correction or modification of the most elaborate expressive
gestures.
Auto-Tune is used daily by thousands of audio professionals around the
world. Whether to save studio and editing time, ease the frustration of
endless retakes, to save that otherwise once-in-a-lifetime performance,
or to create striking special effects, Auto-Tune Evo is the tool of
choice.
Prepare to be amazed.
What's New in Auto-Tune Evo
While
Auto Tune’s patented technology has always provided unmatched speed,
accuracy, and audio quality, for Auto-Tune Evo, Dr. Andy's gone back to
the proverbial drawing board to create a seriously evolved voice
processing technology that takes advantage of the hugely more powerful
computers that are now the norm for digital audio recording.
The result is Evo™ Voice Processing Technology, offering powerful new
features and capabilities along with pitch detection and correction
that is substantially more accurate and reliable over a much wider
range of audio input quality.
Key new Auto-Tune Evo features include:
General Features
Dramatically enhanced core technology:
Evo™ Voice Processing Technology takes advantage of the power of
today's computers to provide powerful new features and enhanced
tracking and correction capabilities.
Redesigned user interface:
Continuing the process begun with Auto-Tune 5, we have again refined
the Auto-Tune user interface to allow for smoother, more intuitive
workflow.
Reorganized common controls:
With the addition of the new pitch shifting, formant correction, and
throat modeling capabilities, we have reorganized the common control
area to ensure that all of the parameters used by both Automatic and
Graphical correction modes are easily available at all times.
Automatic Mode Features
 Real-time pitch shifting (Native versions only):
Auto-Tune Evo’s new Transpose control provides extremely high-quality
real-time pitch shifting over a two-octave range (+/- one octave in
semi-tone increments).
Formant correction (Native versions only):
While Auto-Tune’s classic pitch adjustment technology still provides
the optimum results for the very small intervals typical of
conventional pitch correction, for larger intervals or outright
pitch-shifting, engaging Auto-Tune Evo’s Formant Correction function
preserves vocal character over a much wider pitch-shift range.
 Throat modeling (Native versions only):
Utilizing the latest incarnation of Antares’ unique throat modeling
technology, the new Throat Length control actually allows you to modify
vocal character by passing it through a variable-length physical model
of the human vocal tract.
Graphical Mode Features
Resizable Graphical Mode window:
In most hosts, Auto-Tune Evo’s Graphical Mode window can be resized in
real-time, limited only by the size of your monitor. (In hosts that
don’t support real-time resizing, the window size can be set in the
Options dialog. In VST hosts, resizing is limited to a maximum size of
1600 x 1200 pixels - still not too shabby.) .
New Note-based pitch correction and pitch shifting: In addition to Lines and Curves, Auto-Tune Evo introduces an entirely new method of pitch editing: Note Objects.
Clicking the Make Notes button causes Auto-Tune Evo to analyze the
tracked audio and create graphic representations of the target notes
(which can be fine-tuned with the Number of Note Objects control).
These objects can then easily be edited, shifted in pitch, and
individually pitch corrected or retuned. New Note Objects can be drawn
with the new Notes Tool, and the transitions between Notes can easily
be customized with the Curve Tool.
Object-based Retune Speed settings:
In one of Auto-Tune Evo’s functionally most powerful changes, Retune
Speed is now an independent property of each individual correction
object (Curve, Line or Note). Since each object can have its own Retune
Speed setting, you will no longer need to automate Retune Speed to get
the optimum rate for each note of a performance.
Customizable object-based default Retune Speeds:
Since you will typically use different pitch correction objects for
different tasks (e.g., traditional pitch correction, pitch shifting,
T-Pain-style effects, etc.), you can streamline your workflow by
setting your own custom default Retune Speeds for each type of object
(i.e., Curves, Lines, and Notes) in the Options dialog.
Real-time display of output pitch:
In addition to Auto-Tune’s traditional Tracked Pitch, Line, and Curve
plots, Auto-Tune Evo provides a new Output Pitch plot that displays the
exact output pitch based on the current Retune Speed. This plot updates
in real time as you adjust the Retune Speed, so there’s never any doubt
about the precise effect of each setting.
Comprehensive programmable keyboard shortcuts:
Auto-Tune Evo’s new Key Binding system lets you assigned virtually any
Graphical Mode function to each of the QWERTY number keys (i.e., the
number keys across the top of your keyboard). So no matter what your
personal editing workflow, you can ensure that your most-used functions
are always only a key press away.
New Pitch Graph display mode:
The new “Lanes” display mode is particularly useful when using Note
Objects for pitch correction or pitch-shifting individual notes.
Global transposition, formant correction, and throat modeling: As described up in the Automatic Mode features, these functions are also available when working in Graphical Mode.
Graphical Paste function:
The new Paste function displays a graphic representation of your copied
data and lets you visually place it at the desired destination before
finalizing the Paste. (Perfect for copying Note Object-based edits to
other parts of a track.)
Enhanced pitch displays:
Auto-Tune Evo provides simultaneous displays of Tracked Pitch,
Correction Object Pitch, and the resulting Output Pitch at the current
cursor location.
Nudge controls for pitch correction objects: To aid precise editing, the new Nudge controls let you move selected object(s) up or down in precise one pixel increments.
And lots, lots, more.. |
