This may be due to the way DP handles formant correction. One of the things I like about Tune is the ability to turn formant correction off.

The tuning was quick, so it was missing much of the subtlety I prefer, slower attack of the tuning for example. I'm sure DP is capable of it.

Overall, if you are a DP user, it's free, nothing wrong with that. But I don't think anyone will change DAWs to use it. And DP users would still be wise to consider Waves, Melodyne, and AT Evo.

The reality is, all of these are valid. I use Waves Tune mostly, AT occasionally, and Melodyne seldom, but that could change at any time.

Hi H

Nice one, yes you were number one, only just posted it.
DP is as transparent as Waves and in IMHO better than Melodyne/AT
Sorry for the FX that's for the potential clients.
As for attack this isn't a plug so if you want a more gradual pitch variation you just draw it in.

I agree you wouldn't buy DP on the strength of it but if you were considering it, it may help you make your mind up.
