PITCH SHIFT IN PROTOOLS

anonymous 5 May 2008

Hi Guys & Gals,
I'm currently using prerecorded backing tracks and need to pitch shift them to the approptiate key for me. for most this works fine, but the odd song requires a big change which can make the bass warbble because it is to low? Does anybody have any suggestions on how to fix this using Pro Tools? Should I try and EQ it out? or alter the way I do it with pitch shift?

I would appriecetate any help on this
Thanks
:D

Hey there. It may be too drastic and its pretty exspensive but I've heard that you can use Melodyne on bass and just go in and fix the specifics.
