An additional bottom panel provides a useful timeline overview of the captured Guides and Dubs.Īs before, the display can be used to add manual Guide/Dub sync points. The displays also quickly refresh as you make parameter changes.
VocAlign Ultra has considerably better visual feedback than its predecessors and the three zoomable views – waveform, pitch and signal energy (which is like the original VocAlign view) – allow you to see timing and pitch both before and after processing.

Beyond this, any changes to processing update straightaway and should you need to swap out or add further Dubs, these can be captured in the same way. If you have multiple Dubs to align to the same Guide, these can be loaded collectively and accessed from the same VocAlign Ultra window simply by selecting their respective tracks.įor multiple Dubs it’s wise to select a suitable VocAlign preset first, otherwise you’ll have to go through and select the preset individually for each Dub. With the ARA plugins loaded in line with your particular DAW, you simply use the Capture buttons to assign selected audio parts as either Guide or Dub.
In VocAlign Ultra ARA has a number of benefits, not least the fact that you don’t need to manually capture each section of audio in real time. That being said, practical implementation does vary across different DAWs so you should be sure to follow Synchro Arts’ DAW-specific instructions. Audio Random Access (ARA), which was developed by Celemony and Presonus, makes two-way communication between plugin and DAW much slicker and considerably improves the user experience. There’s no doubt that designing pitch and timing manipulation plugins that work successfully and seamlessly across multiple DAWs is no easy task. (Image credit: Synchro Arts) Audio Random Access It’s worth emphasising VocAlign Ultra matches rather than corrects pitch, so make sure your Guide is in tune. Algorithm Mode 2 is designed specifically for vibrato-heavy sounds.įinally, the Pitch Ranges setting can help focus the pitch detection algorithm towards specific higher or lower ranges for both Guide and Dub. Monotone is a more creative option that shifts to a single designated pitch (+/- up to 1 octave). Next up, Relative imposes the pitch modulation of the Guide and is ideal for dialogue matching. Two of these (Nearest Octave and Absolute) deliver full-on pitchshifting, and for us did an impressive job of shifting harmony parts to match our lead. Algorithm Mode 1 has four settings that dictate pitch target behaviour. Quick to use and affordable, Project is definitely worth considering if you’re on a tighter budgetįor pitch, the advanced features include the Pitch Target knob, which gradually moves from favouring the Dub to favouring the Guide, and two pitch matching Algorithms. Doesn’t specifically match timing, but delivers extensive pitch and timing manipulation/quantising.
