Today I recorded a song, it sounded crisp and clear on every single track. I began editing, using reverb, compressor, a tiny bit of auto tune and not much else.

I thought "auto tune" was incompatible with Audacity.

Hi so I'm using windows 10, up to date audacity, a scarlet solo 3, audiotechnica mic on an MSI laptop. I've recorded plenty of vocals before and everything worked just fine.

I think something long these lines is needed since linux has the problem of variable latency between sessions.
Maybe and auto-latency test that the user can run to get the latency and set it befoe starting to record?

I think Ardour has something like this.

I haven't tried any of these but here are some free pitch correction plug-ins that I know of:

Graillon
GSnap
KeroVee

Pros use Auto Tune or Melodyne but they are not free.

If all you need from Autotalent an GSnap is auto tuning you can try x42 Auto Tune

First, your choice of recording application doesn't affect recording quality (assum...

Do you have the 32-bit or 64-bit version of Auto-Tune 7 VST? Do you have a full licensed version of the plug-in (not a cracked version or trial v...

I just updated to the latest version of Audacity and before the latest one, my Auto-Tune 7 VST plug-in was working just fine. Now, everytime I try to use it, a pop-up appears in the screen saying, "Effect Failed To Initialize Attempting to initialize the following effect failed: Auto-Tune 7 VST More...

Does anyone know of anything else that would help with a not so perfect pitch voice ? On Linux, the two options that I know of are: "Auto Talent", and the other is singing lessons ;) I sympathize greatly - I can sing a note which is perfectly in tune as I sing it, but the sound that comes ...
