Haven't seen this anywhere
and I think it's epic.
It's a great way to auto-tune in Audacity.
Best thing is,
cross-platform compatible just like Audacity.
Windows, Mac, Linux.
Let's take a look.
There's a link in the description to this video
to take you to the download page for Graillon 2,
which is a live voice changer, including,
yes, you guessed it.
auto-tune free edition,
just click to download it and run the installer.
Now make sure you put the plugin into the right directory
for your platform so Audacity can see it.
That's the important thing.
Add, remove plugins you can go through
and you can enable it here,
in the manage plugin section.
So you'll want to look for it.
It's Graillon 2.
There it is.
Right there and you can see I've enabled it.
You might need to click it and enable down here
to get it to show up in your effect menu.
When you go into the effect menu,
there it is: Graillon 2.
Let's see how it works.
This is auto-tune in Audacity.
I think it's really cool.
I'd like to do more.
Okay. Just a very simple recording.
Doesn't sound auto-tuned.
This is auto-tune in Audacity.
It's just me speaking.
But Graillon 2 will change that effect.
Graillon 2.
Boom! We've got this amazing plugin
and just as it is,
it's not going to do much.
Let's preview.
This is auto-tune.
And I might actually just select the area
that I want to focus on so I can really get a good preview.
This is auto-tune in--
See it's working there.
It's reading the wave form,
which is great.
Now, I want some basic auto-tune.
Whack this up.
It's just the enable dial.
Put it on a 100%
and you'll get a T-Pain style,
super auto-tuned, robotic effect.
Audacity. I think it's really cool. I'd like to do more.
There you go. So you see,
it sounds great.
This is auto-tune in Audacity.
If you want to auto-tune to a particular note,
you can switch off the other notes here.
So I'm going to just auto-tune to C and let's play that.
I think it's really cool.
I'd like to do more.
Okay. And you can hear it.
It's going up and down in octaves as well.
So I can change the snap range to be only one octave,
like that.
This is auto-tune in Audacity.
I think it's really cool. I'd like to do more.
There we go. So you can hear how it's auto-tuning.
We've got a pitch shifter as well. We can move around.
This is auto-tune in Audacity.
I think it's really cool. I'd like to do more.
Really, really cool stuff.
And the other one here is inertia.
You're going to want to play with this.
This is going to do something cool as well.
This is auto-tune in Audacity. I think it's really cool.
I'd like to do more.
Okay. And let's enable this.
This is auto-tune in Audacity.
I think it's really cool. I'd like to do more.
Now you can hear how it's diving up and down octaves.
So I might just reduce that--

I think it's really cool.
I'd like to do more.
So as you can hear,
just by tweaking these three dials really,
on this plugin,
you're getting a good auto-tune sound on your voice.
So enable snap range,
reduce that if it's kind of jumping up and down octaves
and inertia makes you sound really robotic.
You've got to gain knob here to turn it up and down
and a mount knob and a dry mix.
If I want to bring the original voiceover back in,
I can do that.
This is auto-tune in Audacity. I think it's really cool.
I'd like to do more.
So you get that robotic kind of double tuned effect
if you bring that back in.
So much you can do here.
Also, you can open this little 3 bit
hamburger menu and you can find some factory presets.
So we've got the simple octaver.
This is auto-tune in Audacity.
And you can hear a double tracked kind of robot voice
in the background there.
We got, if you know the key you're working in,
you can work with a certain key.
I think it's really cool.
I'd like to do more.
And of course there is,
well, one of my favorites,
you've got like,
younger speech. You've got robot correct,
which is going to be extreme.
This is auto tune.
And let's go for younger speech down here.
In Audacity.
I think it's really cool.
And that kind of pitches it up a little bit.
So you see, lots of fun where you've got
the kind of desired effects you want to go for.
Just apply it. Boom.
It's done across there.
And it's really, really easy to use and download.
Like I say, link in the description to this video
for that awesome plugin.
Spend hours auto-tuning.
And of course of if your singing,
it's going to auto-tune your singing as well as your speech.
So many use cases for this plugin.
Let me know how you get on in the comments down below.
