G Snap and Auto Tuners

[lunaticpro]

I downloaded G snap with the cooler looking skin. I used it on some vocals I had already recorded. I was amazed that this product was free. I also kicked my self in the ass for not using or finding it earlier. It really makes the vocals sound perfect and alot sweeter. I used it on some songs with a pitch bank - were you can add 2 to 8 voices on choruses and stuff like that. I guess it doesnt bother you if you dont know or have it. Until you use it, then you'll be like - how the hell did I record with out it?

ANyway - I am working on my own presets and Ill post them here soon.

This is the 2nd time I've heard of Gsnap in the last two days (maybe because I've been researching pitch correction devices and plug ins). Do you have any experience with Antares Auto Tune or Celemony Melodyne? If so, how does this compare. I'm getting ready to download and try it out but I'm always curious as to what people think of Freeware vs the pro stuff.

Gsnap is a VST plug-in. You need to have a VST host (such as Cubase or other daw software) that can run it as a plug-in. For more info, please visit GVST website (CLICK HERE TO BE REDIRECTED), there is plenty of support info and a user forum there as well

Ive used antares and melochony both and they are much more possiblilities with using them as opposed to G snap. After my first posting , I ended up buying an older version of auto tuner and began using that. I would say this though of G snap - if you are on a tight budget - G snap will get you by. Use the money you save for some dynamic processing plug ins instead. G snap is pretty decent and works fine ; just more options with the other programs.

I hate auto-tune plugins. It feels like cheating to me and IMO it degrades the quality of musicianship. Good musicians never needed it untill fairly recently.

That said, I think GSnap does a fine job, especially considering that it's free. I've used Antares AutoTune briefly before, and while it seems to be a better plugin, my take on things is that if you need more than what GSnap can give you, the problem is not the plugin.

I was having trouble getting Autotune to work correctly on my recording software ( Quartz Audiomaster Project ) so I tried G SNAP . Works like a hot damn ...I've been "fixing " a few spots in demos that have been bothering me for a year or so now and it works great . I was concerned I'd have to go back in and re-record some of the vocal stuff ....no need to now . Its a great tool and , oh yeah ...FREE FREE FREE !
