What was this about? Suddenly, I realized she was screaming at me. And just in time too Ñ since I was able to duck and watch a baton ßy past my head, missing me by inches. ÒWhy [expletive] canÕt you play in tune?Ó she asked. But I was in tune. Everybody else was out of tune. It was then I began to learn about intonation. Many artists struggle with intonation. An entire concert can be spoiled by a single sour note. Many of our most celebrated entertainers spend hours in the studio doing retake after retake, trying to sing expressively and in tune. Afterwards, their producers spend yet more time trying to correct intonation problems using inadequate tools. Auto-Tune is dramatically changing all of that. Because of Auto-Tune, sessions can focus on feeling and expression, rather than retakes. Studio hours are reduced and production costs are lowered. Even artists in live performance situations can concentrate on interpretation, conÞdent that any pitch inaccuracies will be caught and corrected before they make it out to the audience. WhatÕs more, Auto-Tune is incredibly easy to use (a fact attested to by the thinness of this manual). So Þre up Auto-Tune, invest a half hour or so in reading the following pages, and prepare to make intonation problems a thing of the past. Andy Hildebrand Ph.D. Founder and Chief Scientist andy@antarestech.com Auto-Tune UserÕs Manual 7 Getting Started How To Use This Manual Auto-Tune has a transparent user-interface and is extraordinarily easy to use. However, because Auto-Tune does things that have never been done before, some aspects of the user-interface will not be immediately obvious. You must read either Chapter 3, Auto-Tune Tutorial, or Chapter 4, AutoTune Controls, to learn the essential information you will need to operate Auto-Tune. The Contents Of This Manual Chapter 1: Getting Started The chapter you are reading. Chapter 2: Introducing Auto-Tune This chapter explains basic facts about pitch and how Auto-Tune functions to correct for pitch errors. The basic functionality of Auto-Tune is discussed, and information you need to use it effectively is provided. Chapter 3: Auto-Tune Tutorial This chapter introduces you to details of how Auto-Tune works by guiding you through several tutorials. All of the important controls are explained. Also, important hints and tips are presented that will help you use AutoTune effectively. If you only read one chapter, read this one. Chapter 4: Auto-Tune Controls This chapter is reference information for all of the controls used in the AutoTune interface. Much of the information in this chapter is also presented in Chapter 3, however, some of the less important controls are only explained in Chapter 4. 8 Auto-Tune UserÕs Manual Installing Auto-Tune Installing Auto-Tune To install Auto-Tune, double click the installer icon. Information about the authorization process call be found in the installed read-me Þle. Software Notes The TDM version of Auto-Tune is used within ProTools and other programs that access TDM through DAE. Auto-Tune processes one audio channel per DSP chip.

It puts you in control of pitch. Moreover, Auto-Tune is a precision instrument for controlling pitch, allowing you to apply nuances of intonation to any performance. These nuances were only previously available to synthesized music if the engineer involved was willing to do a lot of work. Access to this new level of control is achieved by any Auto-Tune user who has a basic understanding of pitch and how Auto-Tune functions to correct for pitch errors. This chapter presents basic terminology and introduces Auto-TuneÕs operating paradigm, giving you information you need to use it effectively. What Is Pitch? Pitch is a quality of sound relating to the frequencies of the energy involved. Some sounds are very complex and donÕt involve energy of speciÞc frequencies. Even then, there is pitch. Compare, for example the pitch of hissing steam with the rumble of an earthquake. Other sounds, although still complex, have more speciÞc pitch. A symphony orchestra playing a scale in unison is an example of this. The waveforms involved are very complex; nonetheless, you are able to easily sense the pitch. Vocalist and ...
