    It's crazy how long ago Melodyne added polyphonic tuning and it's still total witchcraft which nobody else has been able to crack. It's like someone from the future came back in time and gave them the secrets. Changing the a single note in a bounced chord is just mental.

      In the film industry there are similar tools to cut out very specific sounds out of your recording. For example sirens in the background, easily removed with a spectral editor.

    I choose melodyne every day of the week. It's probably the best vocal-tune plugin I've ever used. Sometimes I use it in combination with auto tune to capture that slightly "modern" touch.

    Great vid! I find that for most genres, tuning the notes to be at their correct place but not dead center and correcting the the pitch drift sounds awesome going into autotune for that extra glossy touch

    I actually tend to use both in tandem with one another. The Autotune for straightening out when I go slightly off key (Will always happen. I'm not a robot.) And Melodyne for fixing some issues in a take if I'm feeling too lazy to redo it. Love both though!

      @@joeymusic I think it's worth trying one of the low end packages for sure. Mostly just for fun to play around with. Because I don't do much that's live, I think the melody is fine for what I do. But it might be interesting to try autotune while tracking

  • @streaming846
    @streaming846 Před 3 lety +1

    Is it common to stretch notes at all?
    And I feel like for lesser singers melodyne Is noticeable but it corrects it smoother than autotune which leaves more of that blippy “autotune” effect and still ends up sounding off

    @Airtouch67 Před 2 lety +3

    Great informative video ! I just do a lot of "karaoke" backing track singing stuff and the auto-tune works just fine. I also have Melodyne but rarely use it. I think the WavesTune is better than the Antares Auto-Tune, cheaper and sounds more natural.

    Great breakdown🔥Melodyne all the way. There's no way I'm doing 50 tracks of pop vocals in Auto-tune. Melodyne studio multitrack mode is the truth. You can even fix timing issues etc. Or repitch entire orchestras. It's nuts.

    I primarily record only myself and the rare client. I moved to mostly doing tuning in my DAW. I own autotune. I used to own AutoTune Evo, but since I dropped out of the game for most musicians (most of my audio work is voiceovers now), I only need to use tuning for my band and personal projects. AutoTune Evo was great, especially as I learned how to be a better vocalist. But eventually, I didn't need it anymore and the graphical editor in my daw was all I needed.

    Since i'm a broke college student i was actually trying to compare between Autotune Access and Melodyne 5 essential, since those are the cheapest versions of each. However, since black friday is soon to be over i think i'll go for melodyne over autotune, cuz from what i read it seems melodyne is much more versatile and has more features on its cheaper option unlike autotune.

  • @robwasnj
    @robwasnj Před 7 měsíci +2

    I can't believe how normalized using pitch correction software has become. I still know some artists that don't use any of it but in pop music it IS the voice of the genre nowadays. I'm hearing it in all kinds of music now, even bluegrass. Even applied with discretion to a good singer a lot of us still notice, it turns me off but I figure I'm the minority here. I'd just rather hear the imperfections than the weirdness as the software snaps the pitch to the correct note.

      I'm the opposite. I have great vocals after I auto-tune the melodyne, but my my music is better off not played as it sux. I couldnt write a song to save my life.well, I could, but it would sound like a church song played by a garage band of old men.
