This video tests and compares various pitch correction plugins to determine if it's still worth using third-party options over Ableton’s stock Auto-Shift.
Using an Apogee iMic and i'm not a trained singer, but that’s the point — how well can these plugins correct and enhance a raw performance?
While I’d love to say 'invest in stock,' Auto-Shift still has a few artifacts. But if Ableton addresses these bugs and adds MIDI output, it might even surpass The Mouth.
What do you think: stock or broth?

It also includes non-real-time plugins and a comparison of Auto-Shift’s harmonizer function. Everything is close to default settings, focusing on ease of use and workflow.
