While I was producing a session yesterday at the studio, I saw the plugin Waves Tune in action. Absolutely remarkable. I like it better than Melodyne because you can see the wave pattern in ProTools in realtime as you adjust the plugin.
It's cheap, only $70. Any comments from users? Not urgent, just considering it for use in SONAR.
Thanks.

I just bought it about a week and a half ago based on a thread here in the forum. It was on sale for $29 and I could not pass that up. I have not had a chance to try it out just yet but when I do I'll share thoughts here. I have the built-in tuning module in Nectar 2 but have not really had much luck with that one. Maybe Waves Tune will work better for me.

I think the one on sale for $29 is Waves Tune LT. Waves Tune is also on sale, but for $69, and there is also Waves Tune Real-Time, on sale for $69. Check out the overview at the bottom of this page: https://www.waves.com/plugins/waves-tune

Matt - I was just searching on whether Waves Tune worked with Sonar and was going to post the somewhat dated (2015) response, but at the end saw that you asked the question yourself in the Sonar forum. However, in case anyone else is interested: Waves Tune in Sonar

Let me know how this works also, I have used Melodyne and also Antares autotune, but to get the program for $69 vs the $399 that antares sells theirs for is amazing deal.

There are two versions of Waves Tune currently selling for $69 (plus the LT version for $29). One of the Waves Tune versions is better suited for real-time use; the other is for going through manually to make corrections on individual notes.
I found many comments in the SONAR forum but nothing definitive. Some say it won't work at all; others have it working but need to do Rewire first, every session. Still not sure what the truth is.
All I do know it that it (the manual one) is incredible in operation. I sat next to a highly skilled and well-known engineer who has Melodyne and Autotune but prefers to use Waves Tune.

Band-in-a-Box 2026 Video: AI Stems & Notes - split polyphonic audio into instruments and transcribe
This video demonstrates how to use the new AI-Notes feature together with the AI-Stems splitter, allowing you to select an audio file and have it separated into individual stems while transcribing each one to its own MIDI track. AI-Notes converts polyphonic audio—either full mixes or individual instruments—into MIDI that you can view in notation or play back instantly.
