Pitch Shifter can apply some latency
Posted: Sat Jun 28, 2008 1:02 pm
Hello,
i too was very surprised how good the pitch shifter works. After trying the Transpose function in DP5 with both DSP-Modes i was totally disappointed when trying to pitch shift some strings, voice, bass and some other stuff.
DP´s own transpose function always did something that sounded, well... like crap. the only thing that worked almost ok was a single voice track.
After trying the Apple Pitch Shifter i applied it to all tracks that needed transposing and the result was very good. Ok sometimes you notice a little bit of strange formants on the strings, but overall it worked quite well!
A thing happend though. When you apply the plugin onto a track, it adds some latency. So somehow the latency compensation did not work correctly. Don´t know why. This was under 10.4.9. And DP 5.11 if i remember correctly.
By the way, i also like the Multiband COmpressor, when you reduce the pre-gain. And the matrix-reverb is also good.
Regards
