Depending whether you are using 64-bit or 32-bit version of your Ubuntu operating system click the appropriate tar.gz download link. There can be a lot of download links, so scroll down until you can see “Where can I get it?” section. Step1.) Download the package in the official Autotalent page. However bear in mind that Autotalent is tested to work only in Linux. In otherwords, there is some lag.ģ.) This won’t work in Audacity installed in Windows except if the source code is purposely compiled to work with it. How to Implement AutoTune in Audacity and ArdourĢ.) There is an acceptable latency of 40ms at a 48KHz sampling rate in your mixing session. For your guidance, below is an example how you can implement autotalent plugin in your multitrack project (supposing there are 3 mono tracks to be pitched corrected): It is not recommended to apply the plugin to the output of the mixdown because it is already polyphonic.

Thus in any multi-track project this plugin is best applied to each monophonic sound source in a multi-track project.

In this case, the autotalent plugin won’t properly perform the pitch correction accurately. However a recording featuring an entire choir (which consists of several singers and harmony) or a rock band performing are polyphonic in nature because there are already several sound sources mixed together (coming from different musical instruments). For example, a single vocal recording is a monophonic track since there is only a single instrument out of it (a single voice). Monophonic sound sources comes from one melody line or a single instrument. Bear in mind that there are limitations with the use of auto-tuning plug-ins like Autotalent, such as the following:ġ.) It works best in monophonic sound sources. Then I found “AutoTalent” by Tom Baran this works very similar to Autotune and is an open source software (free). In Linux, you should find equivalent plugins to Antares AutoTune that would reasonably work. Actually the maker of the real Autotune plugin is Antares Audio Technologies but this will work only for DAW in Windows operating system and Mac. Although I am not a strong fan of auto-tuning plug-ins I received some inquiries how to implement auto-tuning feature in open source recording software such as Audacity and Ardour.
