The singer we use it for is a beautiful, trained singer, but her tone is VERY nasally naturally, so we lean into auto tune heavier for the effect, as that effect works well with a heavily scooped mid range, which lets us pretend like the nasally voice wasn't a problem in the first place.Įven on the most classically-trained singer, we use melodyne into auto tune(antares) since it is such a great sound, and used in all pop/rap/rnb/country nowadays, but we never let AT hit more than + / - 25, as any more it starts sounding really over worked. This is a very creative sound, but not one I'd use 99% of the time.
with same or slightly different settings. I have seen the producer I mainly work with send me a good few tracks with melodyne -> auto tune -> auto tune. If you are using melodyne 'correctly' you shouldn't need to ever do a second instance, also melodyne hates itself and even running 2 melodynes with nothing inbetween will start to sound awful, as your over working the vocal. Melodyne is mainly used to 'correct' than it is for effect, as it's very transparent when used properly, all you could hope for by adding it again is messing up the auto tune algorythm. I would strongly reccomend not using melodyne after AT again, nor would there be a valid point. Then after melodyne I go strait into auto tune, by doing it this way you are able to prevent auto tune from pulling a note the wrong direction, as well as you can use auto tune as a 'sound' rather than trying to let it do all the work. I'm pretty gentle but I use the extra tools melodyne assistant has that lets you control pitch drift, and approach. This is to reign in incorrect notes and smooth out rough parts. I've worked on well over 100 'bigger' tracks now, with a full team and higher quality standard than I ever could reach in my bedroom, and almost 100% our tuning goes like this.Īlways melodyne (very little exception), and always by hand, no auto grid. I've been lucky enough lately to involved on some tracks for bigger labels and clients, thanks to a large producer who's brought me on to help him, this is the technique I've been taught over a couple years, by engineers/producers who've made it much further than I.
