In SONY Sound Forge, I'm using the Pitch Bend effect to make many adjustments to a vocal track, but I need to SIMULTANEOUSLY listen to the backing instrumental track to ajust the vocal. How can I listen to 2 audio tracks at the same time while adjusting only one of them?

I ran into this video demo from NAMM 2009:

Is it possible, using Autotune or another similar software, to manually change notes on a vocal track? Not just minor correction... I'm talking extreme vocal makeover. Like taking a vocalist who can sing only half of notes or less in tune, and making them sound as though they sang every note on tune.

anyone know of any out there that are worth a shot? just dont really have the money for the antares package right now and wanted to experiment with something similar first. let me know! thanks

Hi Guys & Gals,

Hello,

I am using cakewalk home studio 2002 to record my guitar through a microphone that is plugged directly into the sound card in back of my pc and there is some sort of problem because when I play the track back the pitch and tempo of the guitar is distorted. I recorded a short 50 second track and made it into an mp3 file so you can hear what I am talking about.

Here is the set up:

mac
m-audio profire 2626
krk rp8s

When I have no programs running, this weird sound does not occur but as soon as I open Logic I get this sound:

Hi, I seek your help/advise as I am stuck in a classical situation. "It worked fine so far but today when I need it ..."

My setup. :

Recording path: Mics >> Mackie 1640 >> Firewire >> HP NX 7400 Laptop
Monitoring path: Mics >> Mackie 1640 >> Aux 1, 2, 3, 4 >> 4 channel headphone amp.

What happens:

Hey again,

I am interested in purchasing a pitch correction device for my Pro Tools system.
I have used the demo versions of both programs and like them both quite a bit.
I would like to know other people's opinions on the two programs and which one would be the best buy.
thanks.
