auto tune rack vs. auto tune plug vs VoiceModeler *

FormulaReed · 9th March 2005, 12:26 AM

I know that auto tune is the devil, but I have been getting clients asking if I have it. That and some of the stuff that I have been doing need it.....bad...

I have used the plug-in but never the rack. What's the difference? Does the rack work in graphic mode or is it just automatic? It looks like the rack is 20bit.

I also have a Powercore so the Voicemodeler is an option. Any one used one?

Thanks,

Reed

While "denying" that I've ever used any pitch correction of any kind, I will say that powercore one -- Intonator I think -- is the best one I've ever used. Even in the harshest setting straight-up plugged in on a lead vocal -- which I'd actually never do -- the average musician would never detect it. I never got that kind of transparency from the famous one, rack or plugin.

I had the original rack and liked the sound..it is broke right now but I definately think it sounded nicer than the plug in ( or i fooled myself into thinking it did anyhow)but it means bounceing the tracks through it which is obviously a bit of extra time and had only limited editing options, I might fix it cos I liked it...I am not sure about the newer ones.I use melodyne a lot but it is quite long winded and detailed to work with..which I quite enjoy but I can see it would not be to everyones taste..autotune plug in is very useable for certain tasks though and I would always try this first .
