UAD Antares Auto-Tune Realtime Advanced

Legendary for its vocal enhancing and creative applications, the Antares Auto-Tune effect revolutionized vocal production. From subtly tweaking a singer's intonation to transforming a vocal into varying degrees of robot-speak, Auto-Tune is a must-have tool for the modern music producer's toolkit:

• A UA exclusive, the Antares Auto-Tune Realtime Advanced plug-in improves the previous UAD version with powerful workflow and sonic enhancements, making it the ultimate ultra-low-latency tuning solution for Apollo and Arrow interfaces — optimized for instant live vocal tracking in the studio or on stage.
• Apply Auto-Tune pitch-correction to a performance in real time when tracking with a UA Audio Interface.
• Correct vocals and other solo instruments transparently during mixdown.
• Create the iconic Auto-Tune vocal effect essential to modern pop, hip-hop, and electronic music.
• Use Classic Mode to get the gritty, glitchy "Auto‑Tune 5" sound made famous by Cher, Kanye and more.
• Fine-tune using Auto-Tune Advanced's powerful Humanize, Vibrato, and Flex-Tune functions.
• Control target pitches or other Auto-Tune parameters in realtime using MIDI input.

An Iconic Effect

Introduced in 1997, Auto-Tune is one of a small handful of effects that's changed the face of popular music. By continuously detecting the pitch of a periodic input signal — typically a solo voice or instrument — and instantly, seamlessly, changing it to a desired pitch, producers could quickly fix problematic performances, embellish vocal hooks, and create new robotic voices that have come to define pop, hip-hop, and dance tracks for two decades.

Realtime Pitch Correction with MIDI Control

Thanks to its ultra-low latency — and its ability to run on the built-in DSP found in UA audio interfaces like Apollo and Arrow — Auto-Tune Realtime Advanced allows instant tracking in the studio or on stage, giving you realtime pitch-correction that's easy to use. Simply place Auto-Tune Realtime Advance in the UA Console app, select the song's key, and you're on your way to crafting perfectly tuned vocal tracks. Plus, you can control all key performance parameters from any MIDI controller or pre-recorded MIDI track.

Classic Mode

Over the years, Auto-Tune's algorithms have evolved, yielding subtle changes to the effect's sound. Back by popular demand, Auto-Tune Realtime Advanced has a new "Classic Mode" that gives you the popular "Auto-Tune 5" algorithm for the hard, glitchy vocal sonics used by Cher and Kanye West on some of their biggest hits.

Humanize Yourself

On the other end of the spectrum, Auto-Tune Realtime Advanced also lets you subtly correct the pitch of vocals and other solo instruments without unnatural distortion or artifacts. With features like Humanize, Flex-Tune, and Natural vibrato control, you can craft the perfect amount of pitch correction while retaining a performer's expressive, unique intonation and inflections.

Improved Interface

The Antares Auto-Tune Realtime Advanced plug-in features a redesigned control panel for a faster, more efficient workflow. Basic view gets you up and running quickly, with only the most important controls available, while Advance view lets you fine tune with powerful scale editing, vibrato, and MIDI features.
