Slate Digital has released MetaPitch, an 'autotune' plug-in that is great for special effects.
MetaPitch, a versatile pitch-shifting plugin, provides users with a straightforward yet powerful tool for manipulating the pitch and formant of audio sources. Packed with essential features not commonly found in similar plugins, MetaPitch stands out with capabilities like Grouped Instances, onboard saturation, stereo widening, and built-in high and low-pass filters. It also introduces a MIDI-controllable 'Robot' Mode for unique creative possibilities.
Independent Pitch & Formant Control
MetaPitch allows users to independently control both the pitch and formant of their source sounds using dedicated knobs for each parameter. The 'Link' button enables the simultaneous adjustment of both parameters, providing flexibility in sound manipulation.
Grouped Instances for Efficient Processing
Similar to MetaTune, MetaPitch includes Grouped Instances, enabling users to efficiently apply the same processing parameters across multiple tracks simultaneously. This feature streamlines the workflow, saving time and effort during audio processing.
MIDI Melodies with 'Robot' Mode
The 'Robot' mode in MetaPitch introduces a Vocoder-style effect, enabling users to create custom melodies via MIDI. This feature adds a unique touch to sound design, making it suitable for a wide range of applications from harmony generation to vocal morphing.
Warmth & Width Enhancement
MetaPitch incorporates built-in filters, along with Drive and Widener controls, providing users with a quick and easy way to add color and dimension to their affected sounds. This feature enhances the warmth and width of the audio, contributing to a richer sonic experience.
Low Latency Monitoring for Real-Time Response
Addressing concerns related to latency during live recording or monitoring, MetaPitch features a Low Latency Mode. This mode significantly reduces delays commonly associated with pitch-shifting plugins, ensuring a seamless and responsive user experience.
Using with MetaTune
Complementing MetaPitch, MetaTune stands out as an automatic tuner with unique features. It offers robo effects with negative speeds, a user-friendly interface, and innovative additions like Grouped Instances and a built-in Doubler for creating wide, thick vocals. From subtle pitch adjustments to bold effects, MetaTune serves as a comprehensive automatic tuner.
