Use this control to specify the amount of Formant transposition you wish to
apply to your incoming vocal tracks. In general, this can be left at 0, however
use this control to manually adjust your vocal formants.
Scale
Nectar's Pitch Correction algorithm will preserve the formants of your incoming
vocal takes exactly as they were recorded.๎ These formants are what give the
voice its timbre and are very important in keeping your vocals sounding as nat-
ural as possible when pitch shifting.๎ However, it can be desirable to shift the form-
ants slightly in the direction of the desired pitch shift, as this corresponds to what
humans naturally do. When singers sing a higher note, our vocal formants also
shift slightly higher. Global Formant Scaling can sometimes help achieve more
natural results when necessary.
Setting the Scale of your song
Root
Here you can define the root note or key that your vocal takes are in.๎ It is import-
ant to set an accurate Root Note as this can help the pitch correction algorithm
determine the best possible pitches for your vocals to correct to.
