Re: which pitch correction software is best?
I'm presently playing around with melodyne editor to see how it handles polyphony. Fed it a full wind orchestra with drums that didn't play so well on their recording ( not totally in tune) and bam. a hella better (I'm not setting the pitch correction nor the pitch drift to 100% even though when I tried it at 100% it sounded good). We're talking of flutes, piccolos, tubas, euphoniums, trombones, sax altos, tenors and baritones, clarinets altos and baritones, trumpets, french horns for a total of 23 players.
//edit I should have mentioned that I've tried track by track, which is fine but long, and also tried stemming down all the tracks but the room tracks, then I corrected the stem down, then the room track and then passed it through a small stage reverb and concert hall reverb from space. The concert happened in a very dead room so it needed it and this was really the best result I got from the tests I've done. Stemming down even with the room tracks did a very good job too, but since I didn't want to sent the stage reverb and concert hall reverb to the room track, I had to do both separately. |

Re: which pitch correction software is best?
The newer version of Melodyne do sound better by far than the early ones. While I agree that Autotune is faster, the result with Melodyne, if its done right, is that its completely invisible to all except a trained ear, and if you know how it sounded before. Autotune is more easily spotted.

Re: which pitch correction software is best?
Like Albee said, Used correctly, you'll never know Melodyne is there. I use studio for everything now, though I have a couple of others I use occasionaly.
Melo is great for reducing things like vibrato and formants and such when needed.. A lot of time all that needs to be adjusted is just the pitch center, resulting in a nice, pleasing, and not 'tuned' performance.. natural. It's not the same as tuning to pitch... and it allows you to retain all of the nuance and character of the performer. Combined with Serato PnT Pro and Revoice PRo, it's a killer suite for massaging things into a pleasing result.

Re: which pitch correction software is best?
Good point on Formant adjustment. I was just asked to pitch a session up 3 steps(from E to G). The music sounded fine(thanks to Serato P'nT), but the BGV tracks did not(paging Alvin......). I ran the re-pitched BGV tracks thru Melodyne and dragged the formant down between 2 and 3 steps(on the Melodyne grid) and the vocals then sounded correct(a singer's voice I know very well). This saved the client paying to re-track 8 tracks of BGV. Autotune could not do this(or I don't know HOW to make it happen).
