Although Pro Tools doesn’t ship with any pitch correction tools similar to Melodyne or Autotune, it does offer real time pitch manipulation in the form of elastic pitch. Of course there are other ways to manipulate pitch in Pro Tools. To see this plug-in in action and get some ideas on how best to use it watch these videos on using Pitch II on Keys, Pitch II on Vocals, and Pitch II on Guitars. For those who missed out on Soundtoys’ free giveaway of Little Microshift, Pitch II offered a free plug-in for detuning effects and much, much more. The swoosy-wooshy side effects of cyclic modulation effects limits their usefulness and the old TDM Pitch plug-in, apart from being TDM only, was also really nasty. The usefulness of detuning for thickening sounds can’t be overstated. The Pitch II plug-in is a recent addition to the stock plug-ins in Pro Tools. For all our berating Avid for the things which are wrong with Pro Tools, its easy to overlook the things which are right.
I simply zoomed in, drew out the click with the pencil tool and zoomed out. He had a click in some audio and wanted to remove it. He was a Cubase user trying out Pro Tools. I recall talking to a producer friend several years ago. While not the most glamorous feature of Pro Tools, or the newest, its easy to overlook just how useful it is. In a round-up of legacy content relating to the letter P, the first on the list is the pencil tool.
