Waves Tune Real-Time corrects vocal pitch automatically in real time – transparently or as a creative effect, in the studio and live on stage.

Because you hear the pitch correction while tracking, there are no surprises at mixdown, and vocalists can focus on feel and emotion. The two main controls, Speed and Note Transition, together with the Tolerance settings, determine whether you get subtle, natural-sounding correction or hard-tuned creative effects. Formant correction retains the natural timbre, vibrato tracking is adjustable, and “wrong” notes can be designated in advance so pitches won’t be corrected to them. Play target notes via MIDI with the virtual keyboard, a controller or a MIDI track, and quantise to 43 western and eastern scales or create your own.
