When you are working with audio loops, listen
carefully and adjust the Accuracy slider until
you find a setting that keeps timing solid within
the region. If you don’t, start and end times may
be precise, but the beats in rhythmic material
may appear to be “shuffled” if too little priority
is given to Rhythm.
Reference Pitch Activates a sine wave-based
pitch generator which you can use as an audible
reference when pitch-shifting audio material.
This feature has the following parameters:
Note Adjusts the frequency of the reference tone
in semitones (half steps).
Detune Provides finer adjustment of the frequency
of the reference tone in cents (100ths of
a semitone).
Level Adjusts the volume of the reference tone
in dB.
To use the reference pitch feature of the Pitch
Shift plug-in:
1 Select the audio material you want to use as a
pitch reference. Click the preview button to begin
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 playback.
Adjust the level setting to change the relative
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 controls
to match the pitch of the audio playback to
the reference pitch.
6 Click Process to apply pitch shift to the selection.
