Correcting a Vocal Track (Pitch Fix) Correcting a Vocal Track (Pitch Fix) The Pitch Fix function can be used to "fix" the pitch of a vocal track, or create chorus parts based on a main vocal part. An Auto Punch-in/out function is also provided which allows a specified segment of a vocal track to be processed and replaced. Pitch Fix can be useful in the following situations: • Correct the pitch of slightly flat or sharp vocals. • Correct the pitch of a specified segment or phrase of a vocal track using the Auto Punch-in/out function. • Create a chorus part using an external MIDI keyboard to specify the pitch of the chorus part - a third above the main vocal, for example. • Change the key of a vocal track. NOTE • If you will be using an external MIDI keyboard to specify the pitch for vocal pitch correction or a chorus part, the MIDI OUT connector of an appropriate MIDI keyboard must be connected to the AW2400 [MIDI IN] connector via a standard MIDI cable. In this case the MIDI screen Setting 1 page PORT RX (reception) parameter must be set to MIDI. Keyboard connection can also be made via the USB port.
