Other than e.g. using a sampler plugin and applying some pitch-bend modulation, how would you do this in Sonar?  Are there any 'native' options other than Cakewalk's Pitch Shifter plug-in?  Could Drop Zone be used perhaps?
 
TIA :-)

When you say Real Time, do you mean live, as you play your track in?
 
In non-real time, the new Melodyne should do a very good job.

Real time as in, apply variable pitch shifting to audio in real time (not a fixed 'offline' pitch change), but probably post tracking as such effects will doubtless carry some latency with them.

Unfortunately we have not implemented anything like this yet.  It would be very cool though.

Woo hoo!

Ohh..  seems a little Varispeed-ish.     Yes please!   
 
 

FWIW I went for QuickQuak's PitchWheel effect (the 'elastique' was considerably more expensive).
 
It's pretty damn good I have to say and maps really nicely in ACT to my PCR-300 (although I couldn't get it to ACT-learn for some reason, other plugins ACT-learn just fine so something's a bit odd there).  It automation writes and reads as you'd expect.
 
There are demos of both available I believe.
