You can choose mono, for lower CPU usage, or stereo for stereo inputs. On the bottom there are some other options. Key is not important for non-harmony settings. Detune is good for getting a more natural effect, only a little is needed (a little up or down from the center position). So selecting C (major that is) scale for Key, which doubles as Am (A minor), means you should play only the notes A, B, C, D, E, F, and G for the most harmonized results. These harmonizer effects are intended to be played in a certain major or minor scale. The Pitch menu lets you select pitches like +7 or -7, or harmonies which are intelligent pitch shift effects. The Blend control will let you use a fully shifted output, or the dry and wet signals mixed (a harmony). The result is this pitch “pedal” simulation that has most of what is great about guitar harmonizer pedals, and still preserves the signal’s integrity. The effect is meant to combine old styles of pitch shifting with the quality you expect from modern plug-ins.
Pitchproof is a free audio plug-in that can shift the pitch of the input. It’s a pitch “pedal” simulation that offers the most of what is great in guitar harmonizer pedals.
Here are a few worth looking at.Pitchproof by Aegean Music is a new free pitch shifter plugin for PC & Mac that simulates the characteristic of classic pitch pedals!Īegean Music has recently released Pitchproof, a new free pitch shifter plugin for PC & Mac (VST/AU/AAX). Buy an App To Do It For You Since this is such a common problem that Apple hasn’t solved or has no intention to solve (although may resolve this problem by,) there’s a cottage industry of utilities out there that will migrate everything from your iOS device back into iTunes, just the way they were before you lost them. Unfortunately DeTune and Senuti are Mac only, but Windows users will have better luck using MediaMonkey or Winamp to see, manage, and back up their iOS device’s files than Mac users will.
There’s also the venerable (iTunes spelled backwards.) It used to be free, but the now “trial” version allows you to transfer 1000 songs and is free for 30 days – a big improvement over the trial versions of other paid options that we’ll discuss in a moment. If you’d rather use a free utility to do it, try, a free Mac utility that will back up your iOS device, it’s music, movies, ringtones, voice memos, and playlists to your Mac. The trouble with this method is that if you care about play counts, ratings, and other metadata, they may be lost. Once you have them installed and your iOS device connected, all three apps should recognize it, allow you to browse and control it, and will even let you replace iTunes by syncing new music to it, downloading what you have already back to your computer, and play the songs on the device already. If you’re okay using an alternative media player, (Mac/Windows), (Windows) and (Windows) all allow you to plug in your iOS device and will let you back up your files from it without it. You’ll have to log in to your iTunes account to prove that you are the actual owner of the device, but once you do, all of your app purchases will appear in iTunes on the new computer. If not, go up to the File menu and choose “Transfer purchases from” or right-click the device in the iTunes sidebar and select “Transfer purchases from” there. If you still have the sync warning up, there should be a button to transfer purchases. If you don’t have any apps there, that’s bad news – it’ll wipe your installed apps and you’ll have to re-download them.
