PITCHMAP is the world's first and only plug-in that allows processing the pitch of individual sounds within mixed signals in real-time. It lets you change the melodies and harmonies of any recording by simply playing your own on a MIDI keyboard or creating a pitch map using our stream-lined GUI, and optionally corrects any tuning issues at the same time. As if that weren't enough, PITCHMAP provides functions to remove or extract individual sounds from a mix, and can apply advanced synthesizer-like sound transformations to your audio. In short, it is an inspiring musical instrument, a precision corrective tool and the only processor that literally lets you shape music with your hands.
PITCHMAP has so many uses we haven't yet discovered all of them ourselves. Here's a couple of the applications we're aware of:
Engineers can correct tuning accuracies in mixed recordings
Composers can try different harmonies for their works in an immediate, hassle-free and inspiring manner
Music producers that work with sampled material can now sculpt the music inside the samples as if they were clay in the hands of a potter
DJs can adapt the key/scale of their songs to fit into a seamless set
Sound designers get a bunch of unique new ways of creating the sounds that make the films and games of today so immersive
Mash-Up artists and Re-Mixers now spend minutes instead of hours (or days) adapting the components they use to fit each other
Rapid song/score prototyping using existing recordings that can be transformed to be something new on-the-fly
Mix element suppression/isolation under MIDI control
Creating unique synthesizer sounds based on a live input
Create instant remixes and professional accompaniment tracks directly from your favorite songs or play list
System Requirements
Apple Mac computer
OSX 10.5.8 or newer
Intel CPU with at least 2 Cores
Apple AU (AudioUnits) compatible Host software
Internet Connection for Software Activation
Please Note:
AudioUnits (AU) is a plug-in format by Apple, Inc, and is not related to Avid AudioSuite (AS), RTAS/AAX or Steinberg VST, so this plug-in will currently not work in ProTools, Cubase, Nuendo and other hosts that do not support the AudioUnits format. We will be releasing AAX and VST versions later this year.
MIDI functionality depends on the implementation of the Host software.
