This is especially useful if you make larger pitch edits that result in a bigger jump between notes, as you can add a subtle bend that makes the jumps sound more natural.
If you then Control click, you get a number of editing tools that allow you to chop out sections, draw new pitches with a pencil, force correction to a pitch grid and, one of my favourites, smooth transitions between notes. It’s a little confusing at first and it would be nice to have the option to hide and show certain information but, like anything, you start to decipher it over time. You can also show and hide transient markers, but that’s done from a different window. You’re then presented with several different graphical overlays that show the actual pitch, the detected note regions, the transition between notes, and the regions that lack definitive pitch such as breaths and sibilance. Once you have transferred your audio over, you can control click a region and select Make Warp Region to make it editable.
The ball is currently in Apple’s court on this one, but ARA2 integration is a definite improvement that means you get instant transfer and communication between both software titles, instead of having to do it manually. We reviewed it alongside the new ARA2-compatible version of Logic, but due to an issue with the way Apple has implemented the system, Synchro Arts decided to hold off on releasing a Logic-compatible version, as there is a danger of users losing their work. Revoice Pro 4 is now also ARA2-compatible, which gives even tighter integration. However I’m getting ahead of myself, so let’s go back to the beginning of the process. Et voila! Something that might take hours is achieved in less than a minute. You simply select your Guide vocal, and then your Dub track layers and set a preset process in motion. Synchro Arts’ Revoice Pro aims to dramatically speed up the workflow with a process call Audio Performance Transfer (APT), which allows the performance characteristics of one track to be cloned and applied to one or more other tracks. Of course, the amount of work needed will largely depend on the skills of the performer, but working on an average vocal track can potentially involve hours and hours of vocal editing and alignment.
One of the key tasks when working on a vocal-based track, is to layer up multiple takes and harmonies to get a larger, more textured sound, but this comes at the cost of having to line-up and fine-tune all of the stems to get them to sit together. In the right hands, it’s possible to gently massage a vocal or instrument track towards a ’perfect’ performance, without it sounding too forced or fake. The quality of results achievable with pitch and time correction software has seen slow but steady improvements since it was first introduced.
