Chapter 1: Getting Started
WhatOs New in Auto-Tune 3
If you are upgrading from a previous version of Auto-Tune, you will find
that most all of what youOre already doing will continue to work in Auto-
Tune 3, only better.
The following are the key new features that have been added in Auto-
Tune 3:
Y A revised core pitch detection algorithm that greatly improves pitch
detection reliability in both Automatic and Graphical Modes.
YOSource Specific� pitch detection and correction algorithms. Choices
include Soprano Voice, Alto/Tenor Voice, Low Male Voice, Instrument,
and Bass Instrument. Matching the appropriate algorithm to the input
results in even faster and more accurate pitch detection and correction.
Y Phase-coherent pitch correction of stereo tracks.
Y A Bass Mode that lowers the lowest detectable frequency by about one
octave to 25Hz. Since the lowest E string on a bass guitar is approxi-
mately 41Hz, Bass Mode allows the user to apply pitch correction to
fretless bass lines as well as other low bass range instruments.
Y The ability to set target pitches in real-time via MIDI from a keyboard or
sequencer track.
Y A new Make Scale From MIDI function for occasions when it is not clear
exactly what key a melody line is in, or where the line has too many
accidentals to fit comfortably into a conventional scale. For those
occasions, the Make Scale From MIDI function allows you to simply play
the line from a MIDI keyboard or sequencer and let Auto-Tune 3
construct a custom scale containing only those notes that appear in the
line.
Y High sample rate (88.2kHz, 96kHz) compatibility (depends upon host
application and audio hardware support).
Y Enhanced MIX chip usage efficiency for more instantiations per MIX
chip (TDM only)
