Tutorial 1: Automatic Mode Basics
This tutorial will guide you through the basic Automatic Mode functions
using the file “A2-A3-A2 sweep.” This is a simple synthesized waveform
sweeping slowly from A2 up to A3 and back to A2. While it is unlikely that
you’d ever need to process such an input with Auto-Tune 4, it provides a
very clear example of what each of the main Auto-Tune 4 controls do.

Begin the tutorial by doing the following:
1. Load or import “A2-A3-A2 sweep” into a track of your host program.
Play the track so that you are familiar with the original audio.
2. Set up Auto-Tune 4 to be an insert effect on that track.
3. Set Auto-Tune 4 to Automatic Mode.
4. Set the Key to “A” and the Scale to “Major.”
5. Set the Retune Speed to zero.
6. Set “A2-A3-A2 sweep” to loop continuously and put your host program
into Play mode.
What you will hear is an A major scale. This is because Auto-Tune 4 is
continuously comparing the input pitch to the notes of the A major scale
and instantaneously correcting the output pitch to the nearest of the scale
tones.
