Someone here said the new version of Melodyne plugin is the
closest thing they've seen to magic. And it really is - it can
extract and pitch correct/reharmonize individual notes in _polyphonic_
material now. The demo on their website, where the inventor records
an acoustic guitar, and Melodyne extracts a six string score from it
is amazing. Then while playing the track back, he pitch
shifts/'reharmonizes the individual strings in real time on a
keyboard! It's really something.
Also while I have always done pitch correction the old fashioned
way, "comping" a part from several takes, I think the interface/
workspace of Melodyne looks a lot more user friendly and intuitive
than Autotune.
