edubz Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 I have a dance track that I am working on but I am not happy with the pitch of the female vocals and I tried logic pitch shifter but its horrible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Masako Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Is Melodyne really that good??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPZ Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Melodyne is the best for vocal tuning or single note pitch shifting. If you need to raise or lower the pitch of gtrs or a whole track or something it's not so good. I always bump over to Ableton live (in complex mode) or PT to use Serato pitch n' time for that stuff.

the sinner Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 IMO logic is very weak in this department. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masako Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 JPZ, Why do you edit your vocals in ableton live & not in Logic Pro 7? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPZ Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I edit vox in Pro Tools or Logic, tune them in Melodyne or now with the Melodyne plugin inside Logic or PT. But for polyphonic pitch changing i.e. dropping or raising pitch of chordal stuff or complete mixes (while maintaining tempo especially) Melodyne is not so good. Logic isn't really either but I' I think Pitch n time and live are pretty good at this considering what your trying to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shivermetimbers Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Ummmm... Are you the one singing the vocals and trying to make it sound female? Or are you trying to correct some bad notes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSV Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I agree that Pitch'n Time and Live is great. The "complex" warp algorithm in Live is awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fader8 Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 There's really no "one" answer to this when talking about complex material. In addition to Logic's own algorithm, I also have Pitch n Time, Izotope and recently Melodyne Studio. I've been amazed at how any one of these can sound horrible or wonderful depending on the particular material. After a while you get a feel for which one may work best on certain mixes, but there's no hard and fast rule that I can tell. Surprisingly, on occasion it's been Logic's native algorithm that sounded best, hands down. Go figure. Keep in mind that only the top end Melodyne "Studio" package has the algorithm for shifting complex mixes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashermusic Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I agree that Pitch'n Time and Live is great. The "complex" warp algorithm in Live is awesome. I don't agree with Live for this. I find it sounds very artifacty unless tthe changes aare very minor. Pitch n' Time is indeed an improvement over the alogrhythms that come with Logic as is Isotope's Radius.

JPZ Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 >>I don't agree with Live for this.

I've had very good luck with it. There are like 4 different modes to choose from so make sure you have the best for the material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camillo jr Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I have Melodyne Uno for vocals and Izotope Radius for full mixes. But if I just want to pitch shift or stretch one note here and there in a performance, Radius works consistently better than Logic's time machine.
