If one simply shifts a held vocal note from a D to an E flat, this minor change can yield an unnatural sound. A voice sounds different than a guitar, for instance, because of its different harmonic signatures. These harmonic signatures indicate the source of the audio. Several factors make up the human voice or any monophonic instrument. While the primary purpose of pitch correction technology is to correct pitch, of course, there are different approaches and techniques used to achieve this. ![]() In 1998, consumers and producers alike noticed the viability of this technology as both tool and effect with Cher’s hit song, “Believe,” one of the first and most successful releases to implement Auto-Tune. Two decades later, Antares Audio Technologies introduced Auto-Tune, software that automated and refined the pitch correction process. This device was the first of its kind a multi-purpose box that included pitch shifting with an octave (up and down) range. The solution to this problem started emerging in the 1970s, with Eventide’s H910 Harmonizer. Before pitch correction technology, the only way to improve a vocal line was to record the vocals again. ![]() While many recording artists could hold their own vocally, even small errors could amount to major time losses. The primary problem, in this case, was vocal production. Like all technology, pitch correction arose as a solution to a problem. And there’s a lot more to pitch correction than one might think. But how one uses pitch correction depends on one’s goals with a given song and mix. This quest for perfection can risk resulting in robotic, inhuman-sounding performances. For several decades now, the technology of pitch correction has minimized human error and allowed musicians and producers to inch closer to perfection. Sometimes, we want the guitarist to perform a perfect bend, or the vocalist to hit the perfect note. We’ve already gone over why we should be open to making mistakes, but this doesn’t satisfy our desires all the time. Whenever a human voice or body is involved in the recording process, mistakes will be made. And save hours of tedious editing with new drag-and-drop hot zones.Human beings are many things, but perfect is not one of them. Use the zone waveform editor to make precise edits to sample start/end and loop ranges with an option to snap to transients or zero crossings. And the reimagined mapping editor adds powerful, time-saving features that speed the creation of complex instruments - including editing commands for automatic mapping, automatic loop finding, and analyzing and splitting samples into zones. An extendable modulation section allows you to add more sources and destinations as needed. An expanded synthesis section with sound-shaping controls brings more depth and dynamics to your instruments - it features twin filters with parallel and serial routings, and five filters modeled after both analog and modern synths. The new single-window design makes it easier to create and edit sampler instruments while remaining backward compatible with all EXS24 files. We redesigned and improved our most popular plug-in - the EXS24 Sampler - and renamed it Sampler. ![]()
