Antares AutoTune 3 Native Software (Macintosh MAS/VST/RTAS and Windows RTAS)

Hailed as a "holy grail of recording" by Recording Magazine, 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, or to save that otherwise once-in-a-lifetime performance, Auto-Tune has become the professional pitch correction tool of choice.

Now, never content to leave a good thing alone, Antares introduces Auto-Tune 3. Preserving the great sound quality and ease of use of Auto-Tune, Auto-Tune 3 adds significant new features as well as a snazzy new user interface.

New Features:
A revised core pitch detection algorithm that greatly improves pitch detection reliability in both Automatic and Graphical Modes.

"Source Specific" pitch detection and correction algorithms. Choices include Soprano Voice, Alto/Tenor Voice, Low Male Voice, Instrument, and Bass Instrument. Matching the appropriate algorithm to the input results in even faster and more accurate pitch detection and correction.

Phase-coherent pitch correction of stereo tracks.

A Bass Mode that lowers the lowest detectable frequency by about one octave to 25Hz. Since the lowest E string on a bass guitar is approximately 41Hz, Bass Mode allows the user to apply pitch correction to fretless bass lines as well as other low bass range instruments.

The ability to set target pitches in real-time via MIDI from a keyboard or sequencer track.

A new Make Scale From MIDI function for occasions when it is not clear exactly… read more what key a melody line is in, or where the line has too many accidentals to fit comfortably into a conventional scale. For those occasions, the Make Scale From MIDI function allows you to simply play the line from a MIDI keyboard or sequencer and let Auto-Tune 3 construct a custom scale containing only those notes that appear in the line.

High sample rate (88.2kHz, 96kHz) compatibility (depends upon host application and audio hardware support).

TDM and RTAS versions compatible with Pro Tools|HD
