In most cases I time align with Audio Snap or Elastic Audio warping after tuning.



Do you ever use Synchro Arts Vocalign? I realize at $600 it's hellishly expensive, but it seems like it would be a good complement to pitch correction.

Thanks for the suggestion.
 
I haven't used Vocalign but I've been aware of it for a long while.
 
IIRC it was VST3 before VST3 was cool.
 
"VocALign PRO VST Plug-in requires Cubase (v4.5.2 or higher) or Nuendo (v4.3 or higher). (No other VST host is supported currently.)"
 
I do not have a need for ADR and I don't have much interest in doubled vocals and or guitar parts.
 
I'd like to encourage more small post production houses to use ADR... but the advent of *television verite* has made a lot of things acceptable that might have seemed to require ADR in the past. :-)
 
It does seem like it could be used to fix the timing on the type of part I illustrated above by referencing the Melodyne render to the original file.
 
$600 for ADR use seems pretty reasonable. $600 to repair the timing that the $350 tuning tool slid around seems awfully expensive. It seems like the tuning tool companies ought to be able to figure this out... even if they have to build a second pass Voc-align process into the process.

Craig, Your cover is great.  It's much ballsier than the Animals version and has better vocals.  I also liked your chord changes on the chorus better.  (I am not slamming the Animals who were awesome, but we have moved on quite a ways since they cut their version.)



Mickie Most and RAK would be pleased. RIP Mickie :(

Yesterday, despite normally using Melodyne for pitch correction, I used V Vocal on something, as it was the better tool for that particular job.
 
I hereby submit myself to be burned at the cake stake for this dalliance with filthy polytheism.

I think it may be 'Ballyhoo', not 'Polly who' :)
