Antares AutoTune 5

The Fastest, Easiest-To-Use, Highest-Quality Tool for Correcting Pitch and hailed as a "holy grail of recording," by Recording magazine (and adopted worldwide as the largest-selling audio plug-in of all time), Antares AutoTune corrects intonation problems in vocals or solo instruments, in real time, without distortion or artifacts, while preserving all of the expressive nuance of the original performance - with audio quality so pristine that the only difference between what goes in and what comes out is the intonation. All with a user-interface that is a model of clarity, speed and ease-of-use.

For most common pitch problems, AutoTune 5's Automatic Mode instantaneously detects the pitch of the input, identifies the closest pitch in a user-specified scale (including minor, major, chromatic and 26 historical and microtonal scales), and corrects the input pitch to match the scale pitch. A Retune Speed control lets you match the retune rate to virtually any performance style.

For meticulous tweaking, the Graphical Mode displays the performance's detected pitch envelope and allows you to draw in the desired pitch using a variety of graphics tools. This mode gives complete control over the correction or modification of the most elaborate expressive gestures.

Antares AutoTune is used daily by thousands of audio professionals around the world. Whether to save studio and editing time, ease the frustration of endless retakes, to save that otherwise once-in-a-lifetime performance, or to create striking special effects, Auto-Tune 5 is the tool of choice.

What's New in AutoTune 5
Building on the great sound quality, transparent processing and ease of use that have always distinguished AutoTune, Antares AutoTune 5 adds significant new features as well as a sleek new user interface.

Key new Anatares AutoTune 5 features include:

• Improved pitch detection algorithm: While AutoTune’s patented pitch detection technology has always provided unmatched speed and accuracy, AutoTune 5 introduces improvements in performance with marginal quality (noisy, poorly isolated, etc.) audio.
• A sleek new interface: As AutoTune’s features have proliferated from version to version, we have continually focused on maintaining its ease of use. With AutoTune 5, we have undertaken a complete graphic redesign. The result is both easy on the eyes and logically groups related controls for intuitive functionality.
• Consolidated Pitch Tracking control: The previously separate Automatic and Graphical Mode Tracking controls have been consolidated into a single control and relocated to the Options dialog for set-it-andforget-it simplicity.
• Humanize function: For those concerned about pitch correction that is “too perfect,” the Humanize function allows you to set a fast retune speed for short notes, while still allowing natural variation in held notes, for results that are even more natural and realistic.
• Realtime natural vibrato adjustment: The new realtime Natural Vibrato function allows you to modify (either increasing or decreasing) the depth of any vibrato that is present in the original performance.
• Larger Pitch Edit Display: As you’ve no doubt noticed, the Pitch Edit Display is now bigger. Lots bigger.
• Sync to host transport (host dependent): For hosts that provide valid time information, AutoTune 5 will now maintain sync with the host program. Once you have tracked audio and created correction curves, you can move around in your track at will. No more having to always start playback at exactly the same location.
• Selectable Clock Source: For hosts that do not provide valid time information, AutoTune 5’s clock display and selection functions let you use an internal time reference for AutoTune 4 style operation.
• Realtime pitch tracking display: During the Track Pitch process, the graphic representation of the pitch and envelope will be displayed in realtime as the audio plays.
• Full-time correction mode (host dependent): Whenever AutoTune 5 is not specifically tracking audio, AutoTune 5 will be operating in correction mode.
• There is no longer any need to press a “Correct Pitch” button. Besides being convenient, that makes possible the following feature
• Multiple simultaneous Graphical Mode instances (host dependent): You can now have multiple instances of AutoTune Graphical Mode operating on different tracks simultaneously, even if their windows are not open. In previous versions, since you had to have plug-in windows open to engage Correct Pitch mode, only open instances could be active. No longer.
• Editing functions no longer modal: You can now use all of the graphical editing features while AutoTune 5 is either tracking or correcting pitch.
• Enhanced Envelope Display functionality: We’ve made changes to the Envelope Display to make it much more useful for quick and easy navigation around your audio
• Realtime graphical vibrato depth adjustment: The Adjust Vibrato control allows you to modify the depth of vibrato in your audio while preserving the contour of the original vibrato. Moving this control results in a real-time graphical representation of the resulting vibrato contour.
• Dedicated Snap To Note button: When using the Line Tool, clicking this button constrains the tool to exact scale notes.
• Dedicated Clear All Data function: Provides a convenient method to instantly clear all saved tracked audio and correction curve data.
• Compatibility with Pen Tablet Input: With a pen tablet, you can control AutoTune 5’s graphical tools (as well as all the other controls) using a familiar pen-style input device. A pen tablet can offer increased drawing accuracy with less wrist stress in long sessions.
• AutoTune 5's MIDI functions require that your computer be equipped with a MIDI interface and properly configured system level software. Some host applications may not support the routing of MIDI to plug- ins, in which case Auto-Tune 5's MIDI functions will not operate.

AutoTune 5 requires authorization via iLok USB smartkey.

Antares Avox

Antares Avox 2 builds on the power of the original Avox plug-in bundle. Antares Avox 2 adds an additional five state-of-the-art vocal processing modules, including the recently released Harmony Engine Vocal Modeling Harmony Generator, to give musicians, producers, and engineers the power they need to create stunning vocal tracks in any musical style as well as design unique vocal effects for audio post-production applications.

New plug-ins for Antares Avox 2 Include:

• Harmony Engine Vocal Modeling Harmony Generator: A real-time harmony generating plug-in that puts professional-quality harmony arrangements within reach of any songwriter, producer, musician or engineer. The quickest, easiest tool for creating realistic harmonies.
• Mutator Extreme Voice Designer: Mutator provides a combination of tools for creating unusual, weird, or downright wacky voices. With high-quality pitch shifting, throat modeling, pitch-tracking ring modulator-based “mutation,” and a mind-bending Alienization function, Mutator is the perfect tool for unique special vocal effects and post-production sound design.
• Articulator Vocal Formant and Amplitude Modeler: A modern-day version of the venerable talk box, Articulator lets a user extract the formant and amplitude information from a vocal (or other dynamic source) and apply it to any other audio track. Perfect for talking guitars, singing synths, and a wide range of special effects.
• Warm Tube Saturation Generator: Based on Antares’ legendary Tube plug-in, Warm warms up vocals with Antares' world-renown tube modeling technology, while being so processing-efficient that it can be used on every track in a project with negligible impact on CPU usage.
• Aspire Aspiration Noise Processor: Aspire is the world's first tool for modifying a voice's breathiness independently of its harmonic content. Whether reducing a bit of vocal rasp or adding a bit of smokiness, Aspire allows the modification the amount and quality of a voice’s aspiration noise (the component of every voice that’s the result of air passing over the vocal chords) without otherwise affecting the vocal’s harmonic characteristics.

These new additions join the original five AVOX plug-ins:

• THROAT Physical Modeling Vocal Designer: A radical new vocal tool that, for the first time, lets you process a vocal through a meticulously crafted physical model of the human vocal tract.
• DUO Vocal Modeling Auto-Doubler: Using a simplified version of THROAT’s vocal modeling, along with variations in pitch, timing and vibrato depth, DUO automatically generates a doubled vocal part with unmatched ease and realism.
• CHOIR Vocal Multiplier: Turns a single voice into up to 32 distinct individual unison voices, each with its own pitch, timing and vibrato variations. Assign instances of CHOIR to voices singing harmony and voilà, instant choir.
• PUNCH Vocal Impact Enhancer: Gives your vocal more dynamic impact, allowing it to cut through a dense mix with clarity and power.
• SYBIL Variable Frequency De-Esser: Tames vocal sibilance with a flexible compressor and a variable sidechain frequency to match any vocal performance
