Tune your singer!

Waves Tune represents the latest generation of native pitch correction! Have you ever had a nearly perfect vocal take, but the singer slid slightly out of tune in a spot or two? If you need to automatically tune a vocal track, Waves Tune will make the changes as gently or as aggressively as you like, using the default parameters or your own personalized settings. Engineers at Sweetwater know that even the best vocal takes can sometimes use a tweak or two. With a slew of real-time editing tools, there's nothing too big or too small for Waves Tune to correct.

Waves Tune Pitch Correction Software At-a-Glance:
  • ReWire Support for Real-Time Edits
  • Pitch Correction and Beyond!
  • Export Notes as MIDI File
  • Manipulate Vibrato
ReWire Support for Real-Time Edits

By harnessing the power of ReWire, Waves Tune provides instant access to all playback functions including looping and scrolling. Now, there's no need to export your track for processing or to separate a chunk of your file to work on. Play cursor position and loop points can be set at any time to any session location, using your host or Waves Tune's transport controls. Set the Timeline Ruler to Bars/Beats, Minutes/Seconds, or Samples for pinpoint navigation.

Pitch Correction and Beyond!

Let's say you want to go beyond correction. Maybe your vocalist finished on an A note, but you think going up to a C would be more dramatic. No problem. Waves Tune represents each individual note as an orange block. To change the pitch, just use the Note Tool to grab the orange block and drag it up or down on the piano-roll grid. Waves Tune's advanced formant correction keeps the tone sounding completely natural, even on wide intervals. Use the keyboard graphic to hear your target note before you choose it.

Export Notes as MIDI File

Export the notes of your track as a perfect MIDI file, which can be used by a synthesizer or sampler to follow a vocal's every move-including pitch bends. Or trigger Waves Tune using an external MIDI keyboard. Waves Tune will override the Notes Grid while you're playing, and will return to normal functioning once the MIDI input stops.

Manipulate Vibrato

Waves Tune has the ability to not only detect natural vibrato, but to manipulate it as well - naturally. Click on the Natural Vibrato button and Waves Tune will highlight naturally occurring vibrato in pink. If you'd like to tame or increase what's there, just adjust the Attack and Amount parameters, and you'll see the Pitch Curve become flatter or wavier, giving you more or less of the vibrato that's already present. And if you need a totally smooth, precise vibrato or an extreme vocal effect, click on the Synth Vibrato. Its precision controls let you determine Waveform, Depth, Predelay, Attack and Rate.

Waves Tune Native Pitch Correction Software Features:
  • Work in perfect sync with your host and do all your editing from within the Waves Tune interface without being bound to a specific section of your track.
  • ReWire lets you listen to your edits in real-time, together with the rest of your tracks, starting playback from any timeline position.
  • Formant corrected pitch processing results in natural sound, with an astonishing new level of transparency and no audible phase shift.
  • Powerful yet extremely easy-to-use editing tools and a totally intuitive piano-roll screen.
  • Large, user-friendly display is easy to use and navigate and the superior Zoom Tool lets you know exactly where you are at all times.
  • Tweak Natural Vibrato for maximum realism or fine tune Synth Vibrato to transform your sound.
  • All edits are non-destructive and saved with your session.
  • Export MIDI files to double your vocal parts using your favorite synth or sampler, or to create note-for-note transcriptions.
  • Choose from dozens of standard and exotic scales, or set and save custom scales with amazing flexibility.
  • Does not support Final Cut Pro X, Main Stage, Garage Band, Wave Burner, Soundtrack Pro, WaveLab, Sonar, Sound Forge, Vegas, Acid, Audition, Samplitude, Sequoia, Ableton Live, or Media Composer.

Great plug in

Alan Carter— my Sweetwater rep helped me decide between this plug in and the waves tune real time. I went with this one based on his recommendation on my set up. I use GarageBand currently and dabble in recording my family. Thisis a great plug in. 1st one I've ever bought. It does what it's suppose to and pretty easy to figure out. I watched a couple videos and read through the manual and I was good to go. Really cool how it can clean up those off notes. Highly recommend.
Rated 5/5

Very Flexible and Extremely Natural Sounding Default or robot sound with tweaks

First, let me say that you play the track with the plugin on the track and the default correction is subtle, excellent and you are done. For those that have said you cannot disable the correction this is not true. There is a Ratio knob that is labeled from 0 to 100%. You can set to 0% before you play the file for the plugin to plot your pitch and you have no pitch correction to start. Tweak the notes you want to fix and leave what you want untouched. If you have already scanned the whole file and it has auto corrected your voice. Simply select the notes you don't want corrected (or select all) and then put the Ratio dial at 0% and click apply and bam your out of tune singing is back!

Want a robot (pop) voice simply turn off Formant correction and crank all three dials fully clockwise. Select all and apply... Now you sound like everyone else. From subtle to ridiculous this plugin does it all. Change keys to any scale or mode, correct timing or change pitch manually. Add vibrato. I have no idea why you would want to pay more, this does everything I need and very well.
Rated 5/5

Better user friendly interface than the others

I've been using this plugin for years, if your not comfortable with melodyne this is a must have for note and pitch connection, also it's very easy to understand what's happening while editing. Great job waves!

Very pleased

I'm a longtime working musician and audio engineer ( 1976 ). Like any experienced engineer I have a bag of tricks to sweeten less than stellar vocals. Just last week I had a vocalist in who simply needed more. I ran the plug at its mildest settings and it achieved what I needed. It had some issue with some wobbly long notes, it just made a different kind of wobbly wrong. But I simply automated the plug to " off "in that section.

Overall it's worth every penny to me. I bought the key finder with it. For $... it sure beats walking over to the piano to get the key for each section.

Since the early days of DAW software, Waves has been a dominating force in music and audio production. For those of us here at Sweetwater who've been recording since the industry switched over to computer-based studios, it's impossible to imagine sessions without L series Ultramaximizers, MaxxBass, and other staples. Since then, we've been impressed every time Waves has brought top producers such as Jack Joseph Puig and Chris Lord-Alge to Sweetwater to show off their next cutting-edge creations, and Waves is constantly adding new and innovative plug-ins to their catalog. And with cool new gear such as their SoundGrid series, Sweetwater engineers have discovered just how easy it is to use Waves plug-ins live.
