Accuracy Sets the processing resources allocated

to audio quality (Sound) or timing (Rhythm).

Set the slider toward Sound for better audio

quality and fewer audio artifacts. Set the slider

toward Rhythm for a more consistent tempo.

Reference Pitch Activates a sine wave-based

pitch generator that you can use as an audible

reference when pitch-shifting audio material.

Note Adjusts the frequency of the reference tone

in semitones (half steps).

Detune Provides ﬁner adjustment of the fre-

quency of the reference tone in cents (100ths of

a semitone).

Gain Adjusts the volume of the reference tone

in dB.

To use the Reference Pitch:

1 Select the audio material you want to use as a

pitch reference. Click the preview button to be-

gin playback of the selected audio.

2 Click the Reference Pitch button to activate

the reference sine wave tone.

3 Adjust the Note and Detune settings to match

the reference tone to the pitch of the audio play-

back. Adjust the Gain setting to change the rel-

ative volume of the reference tone. It may also

be helpful to toggle the Reference Pitch on and

off to compare pitch.

4 Select the audio material to be pitch shifted.

5 Adjust the Coarse and Fine Pitch Shift con-

trols to match the pitch of the audio playback to

the reference pitch.

6 Click Process to apply pitch shift to the selec-

tion.

Time Shift

Time Shift provides high quality time compres-

sion and expansion (TCE) algorithms and for-

mant correct pitch-shifting. Time Shift is ideal

for music production, sound design, and post-

production applications. Use it to manipulate

audio loops for tempo matching or to transpose

vocal tracks using formant correct pitch shift-

ing. You can also use it in audio post-production

for pull up and pull down conversions as well as

for adjusting audio to specific time or SMPTE

durations for synchronization purposes.

Time Shift Displays and Controls

The interface for Time Shift is organized in four

parts: Audio, Time, Formant or Transient, and

Pitch.
