Zynaptiq who makes unique plugins such as Unveil and Unfilter has released a 1.50 update for their PITCHMAP plugin.
I think PITCHMAP a great tool for producers/remixers/DJs. What do you think?
"PITCHMAP is a demixing-based plug-in that allows changing melodies and harmonies of any mixed musical recording in real-time, either by transforming them to new ones played on a MIDI keyboard, or by setting freely defined target scales. Based on Zynaptiqʼs proprietary MAP (Mixed-Signal Audio Processing) artificial intelligence technology, PITCHMAP can be applied to a wide variety of tasks, including original music production, remix work, correction of tuning issues and creative manipulation of existing recordings."
FEATURES:
- Automatic correction of pitch inaccuracies in polyphonic and mixed signals
- Mapping of source to destination pitches via the GUI
- Definition of destination pitch grid via live MIDI
- Process bypass on arbitrary notes selected by their fundamental pitch
- all of which leaves non-pitched signals like drums virtually untouched
- Suppression & Extraction of mix elements based on their pitch using Mute Filters via GUI or MIDI control
- Continuously variable unique synthetic coloration options via parameters Electrify and Purify
- Polyphonic portamento/glides using the Glide parameter
- High-speed workflow: options to rapidly generate complex pitch maps using macro controls
- Snapshot functionality to allow rapid creation of automation
- Mono/Stereo plug-in supporting 44.1kHz and 48kHz sampling rates (higher rates being worked on)
