Auto-Tune UserÕs Manual51 Graphical Mode Controls The Retune slider The Retune slider is only used during pitch correction. ItÕs similar in func- tion but separate from the slider by that name in the Automatic Mode, how- ever, the desired pitch is not the scale tone, but rather the target pitch function. This slider allows you to specify how quickly the algorithm will change the pitch of the input sound towards the target pitch function. A value of zero will cause the output pitch to equal the target pitch function, precisely. Depending on the target pitch function, this may give unnatural sounding results. Larger values will let you use simple line segments for the target pitch function and still let through the natural pitch gestures of the input sound. The Playback controls The Track Pitch button After you select some sound for pitch correction, press this button. It will press in and ßash ÒwaitingÓ. Next, start playback. When the Þrst sound occurs, this button will show ÒtrackingÓ. The pitch and envelope of the sound is being recorded for display in the Pitch and Envelope Graphs. This recording will stop when any of the following happen: 1) The Track Pitch button is pressed again, 2) when the available buffer space (see below) is used up.
Auto-Tune Controls 52Auto-Tune UserÕs Manual The Correct Pitch button After you have used the graphical tools to create a target pitch function, this button is used to apply the target pitch function to the incoming sound. You must press the button before playback is started. After it is pressed, it will ßashÒwaitingÓ. When playback begins and the Þrst sound occurs, this but- ton will show ÒcorrectingÓ. If you do not want pitch to occur, do not press the Correct Pitch button. The Buffer size control This control (the number can be edited) is the number of seconds of buffer space that are permanently reserved for pitch tracking and pitch correction data. 4,410 bytes/second are required for each buffer. There is a different buffer for each plug-in occurrence. If more space is requested than can be provided, you must increase Performer Õs size (select the Performer icon and press ÒGet InfoÓ in Finder Õs ÒFileÓ menu).
