Made a correction. I had mentioned that melodyne in Reaper was just not behaving on this project so I was having issues with pitch correction. So I took the vocal track to Melodyn Editor Standalone Application and pitch corrected. This seems to be the fix. I exported back into Reaper and added my vocal FX and here is the updated version. I think you will agree, pitch is better. Also adjusted the fade out ending.

There may be a problem with Melodyne in current Reaper since I had not seen this issue in the past. Will have to go over to the forum and poke around...
