This device introduces some settings which control the pitch and time correction feature. PitchTime Player – A stereo/dual-mono sample player with pitch and time correction. It features the basic patch structure used in some other more complex examples. This device uses the groove~ object without pitch/time corrections.
Oh and just in case you don't know about this you should download download the key signature mixing wheel here to help you out a bit as you work on learning relative major and minor keys and such if you plan to be doing a lot more of this.Max 7 Pitch and Time Machines includes the following devices, grouped by category:Ĭlassic Player – A standard stereo/dual-mono sample player.
I'm also an advocate for recording without AT and then if you so desire, slap AT on afterwards, although usually I'll let my engineer handle all that nitty gritty stuff in the mix. So for sure the source still matters even when using AT no question. Not only because it's easier to set the key, but also because there is less chance of AT moving your singer's notes to the wrong place or making glitchy sounds in the vocalist's performance because it's fighting to bring a note to the right key with insufficient time to do so. AT actually works better on singers who are already good. Additionally.if none of the notes on a standard keyboard are landing in a place that sounds right in the song.that's usually an indication that a song is in a half or quarter key, so you can detune your keyboard as necessary until the notes sound right.Īll in all, like I said, you just need to develop an ear for it.start by learning your scales.
Pentatonic patterns especially will help you know if you're playing in the right key. That said in all honesty all I do to figure song keys is mess around on my keyboard but I do have some background in music theory so I already understand key signatures and what notes belong to what scale (probably the most valuable insight you can have if you really need help with using AT). You can use software like virtual DJ to help you detect key (not always correct but can get you in the ballpark unless the song is in a half or quarter key, which VDJ cannot detect).
