RETUNE SPEED
Auto-Tune 4 also gives you control over how rapidly, in time, the pitch
adjustment is made toward the scale tone. This is set with the Retune
Speed control (see Chapter 3 for more details).

• Fast Speed settings are appropriate for short duration notes and for
mechanical instruments, like an oboe or clarinet, whose pitch typically
changes almost instantly. A fast enough setting will also minimize or
completely remove a vibrato, as well as produce the infamous “Cher
effect.”
changes almost instantly. A fast enough setting will also minimize or
completely remove a vibrato, as well as produce the infamous “Cher
effect.”
• Slow Speed settings, on the other hand, are appropriate for longer
notes where you want expressive pitch gestures (like vibrato) to come
through at the output and for vocal and instrumental styles that are
typified by gradual slides (portamento) between pitches. An appropri-
ately selected slow setting can leave expressive gestures intact while
moving the average pitch to the correct tonal center.

VIBRATO
Auto-Tune 4 can also apply a vibrato to the input sound. You can program
the vibrato rate along with individual vibrato depths for pitch, amplitude
(loudness) and formant (resonant frequencies). You can also specify delayed
vibrato with independently programmable onset delay and onset rate.

By combining a fast Retune Speed setting with Auto-Tune 4’s Vibrato
settings, you can even remove a performer’s own vibrato and replace it
with Auto-Tune 4’s programmed vibrato, all in real time. Also, unusual
combinations of Vibrato Waveform, Rate and Depth settings can be used
for some interesting special effects.
