going to show you how you can use autotune with Logic Pro X using the
stock plugins available inside logic so whether you just want a bit of help with
your vocals with some pitch correction or you want to sound like t-pain or
Kanye West there's no shame in that I'm gonna show you how you can do this right
now with Logic Pro X so here I have a session in logic and I have a lead vocal
right here and this is what it sounds like without any auto-tune or pitch
correction on.
So you might have a vocal like that or you might be rapping or whatever it
doesn't really matter you have a vocal you can treat it you can EQ it and put
some compression on it whatever reverb but what we're gonna do now is put some
autotune and pitch correction just to help it get to a bit of a more
professional level and how we're gonna do that is well we're gonna highlight
the track and go over to plugins and we'll add a new plugin going to pitch
and pitch correction choosing the mono so this is gonna bring up the stock
autotune plug-in for logic and how you use it is you need to tell logic what
key this song is in if you don't know how to find what the key is to your song
that's okay you can do it through a couple different things you could bring
up the tuner here and just sing into the tuner of the main chord used in your
song that likely is the could be the key of your song or you can go to a website
called audio keychain comm and you can upload a file to their site and it will
tell you the key to your song in my case it the key is an a sharp minor it's a
natural minor scale and most of the time you're going to be either in a natural
minor or a major scale you don't really have to fuss with any of these other
scales the minds natural minor and a sharp and then don't worry too much
about the normal the low knobs these are the pitch Corrections that you'll see
happen in action and then you just want to lower the response if you go all the
way to the bottom you're gonna sound like t-pain and then
if you don't want to sound too autotuning you just raise that up a
while it's playing to find that perfect round that you want to sound like I'll
show you what I mean I'm gonna bring this down here and I'll go to the
beginning of my track and I'll leave it off for now and play the first little
bit without any pitch correction we waited we lose we cry we move on you can
turn the pitch correction on here and move it all the way to to the bottom.
so especially in this part you can really notice it all when I put it all
the way to the bottom we win we lose we cry we move on so it sounds very much
like auto-tune and sometimes that might be in effect you're working with and
that's how you would make it and if you don't want to sound like that just play
back and usually around like 65 to 80 milliseconds is kind of that a response
time if you're singing and pop but you don't want to sound like auto-tune but
you want to be pitch perfect that's a good response time so around 67 you
won't really notice it as much but it will sound pitch perfect we win we lose
we cry we move on the night is darkest right before dawn
it's really hard to hear any sort of pitch correction unless you have a
really good ear so that's probably a good response time that I would
personally go with it's a pretty good plug in the standard stock buckland that
comes with logic but you can also find other auto-tune paid plugins that you
can import into logic and use those that will have a better auto-tuned sound if
you're really going for that kind of thing if you're curious to any of what
my studio vocals sound like check me out on Spotify all my music is there or here
