This technique is used by those divas who can't sing, but make a fortune at it. You know who I'm talking about. It's also good for those who have reasonably good voices but not such good pitch control, and in live situations where you cannot hear yourself well. It requires a DAW or sequencer, and a harmonizer or multieffects unit with a 'harmonize' function.
Sequence the melody of a song into a DAW on a MIDI track. Run the MIDI Out of that track to the MIDI In of a harmonizer. Set the Harmonization interval to 0 (no offset). Then run the vocals through the effect at 100% 'wet'. As long as the singer's phrasing matches the sequenced melody, and the part is sung reasonably in tune, the output will be in tune.
Hey, it works for Brittany!

In Sonar, there is a nice plugin called V-Vocal. It does the trick quite nicely. Not very complicated. The only trick is to adjust pitch of the vocals before you apply any effects, such as reverb, etc.
Edit to add: you can edit the vocals straight from the WAV file. Very convenient. And you hear the results as you make changes to pitch, etc.

I should have specified that this is for realtime correction, and useful in live situations.
Raises a question, though. Wonder what out-of-tune reverb would sound like against in-tune vocals? Interesting, if not musically useful . . . hmmm . . . what if it could be made musically useful?

Yes. You can do this with any DAW or sequencer in which you can devote a MIDI track to melody--which should be any of them. It is the same technique BIAB uses to drive a harmonizer, only monophonic.

So where's the harmoniser in PTPA or is it a separate piece of software? Quote:
Sequence the melody of a song into a DAW on a MIDI track. Run the MIDI Out of that track to the MIDI In of a harmonizer.
And then presumably run the harmoniser back into PTPA for recording?

Check 'pitch correction'. Isn't the pitch correction the same in PT as Biab? It's in there.
