The TC Helicon inside BiaB. PT, and RB works pretty good for harmonies if you use it lightly.



what comes with RB is a harmonizer only... TCHelicon also makes a pitch correction plug

If you want Pitch Correction to work at its best, it's important to identify the root note and scale of the recording you want to process




I've found this to be more important for creating harmonies, because different harmonic notes are chosen depending on the key. For pitch correction I assume I'm already in the ballpark, and I just want a graphical representation of my error so I can drag my screwup to the right place. But I also want to use harmony plugs, and that is an excellent idea for determining the key! Thanks!

I don't mind the hassle of using Melodyne as a standalone.
This way I can stay within RB which is my DAW of choice. Doesn't take much effort to save the vocal track as a wav, then import it into Melodyne, or save it when you're done - IMO.




I agree Ian... it shouldn't be such an inconvenience to use a standalone. But
a) I'm spoiled by the ease of use plugins provide and
b) I don't own melodyne yet, I've just experimented with an older demo that apparently doesn't have a plugin mode. When I buy a product for pitch correction, it will be something with a plugin, mostly because I'm lazy.
