Honestly, with how easy it is to dial in some subtle pitch correction, I’m not going to be that surprised if we see an evolution of our use of this plugin much like using ‘stages’ of gentle compression as opposed to Thor’s hammer of dynamics. Dropping this plugin in Console allows you to apply some real subtle and transparent ‘help’ in the tracking phase. One of the coolest features, though, is the ability to correct in real-time while tracking.
Realtime MIDI input is a plus, making it way more clean and accurate if you have a phrase you just want to play in specifically. As an avid user of Auto-Tune, I didn’t think that we’d be getting an updated version that matched the feature set and graphical interface of the more current native version - but UA and Antares responded rather quickly to this one! This updated version really streamlines the user interface, adds that coveted (and somewhat cult-ish) “Auto-Tune 5” mode for those of you that want to use this as more of an effect than a correction.
