It’s Full Of Stars!

PITCHMAP is the world’s first and only plug-in that allows processing the pitch of individual sounds within mixed signals in real-time. It lets you change the melodies and harmonies of any recording by simply playing your own on a MIDI keyboard or creating a pitch map using our stream-lined GUI, and optionally corrects any tuning issues at the same time.

As if that weren’t enough, PITCHMAP provides functions to suppress individual sounds within a mix, and can apply advanced synthesizer-like sound transformations to your audio. In short, it is an inspiring musical instrument, a precision corrective tool and the only processor that literally lets you shape music with your hands.

MAP That Pitch

Based on our Mixed-Signal Audio Processing technology (MAP), PITCHMAP internally de-mixes the input signal into individual sounds, including their harmonics and transients. This technique is quite literally rocket science, and is done using perceptive modeling and pattern recognition techniques also used in artificial intelligence applications.

The separated sounds can then be individually tuning-corrected and mapped to other pitches, a process we call Pitch Mapping. MAP also enables PITCHMAP’s simple-to-use, yet very effective functions for suppressing or isolating mix elements. In real-time, of course.

Natural

Our MAP process is based on a model of the human perceptive system, including the cochlea and the brain region responsible for interpreting its data. Hence our process is inherently very natural sounding with correct settings and reasonable amounts of pitch modification. The human voice, however, has a very specific sonic topology that is very different from any musical instrument, and human hearing is trained to detect even the most subtle sonic variations in a voice.

As a result, processing voice simultaneously with other instruments has been a challenge in the past. To accommodate for this, we’ve added an extra layer of intelligence that recognizes voice elements and processes them separately. We’ve called this Natural Mode.

Electric & Creative

Certain pitch correction algorithm artifacts have become quite popular. We’ve got those, too, if you want them. But our MAP process has more sonic options than that.

We’ve added parameters called Purify and Electrify that allow making your sound more or less synthetic sounding, and threw in a polyphonic Portamento option named Glide, for good measure.

In combination with the live MIDI function, these parameters can basically turn PITCHMAP into a unique synthesizer allowing some very far out sound design.

No PhD Required

Although the DSP code itself is insanely complex, the process of Mapping Pitch is as simple as playing some notes on a MIDI keyboard or dragging sliders on our super-slick GUI to assign source pitches to target pitches.

Or you can let your computer do the pitch mapping by using dedicated macro controls to go from one key/scale to another with just a couple of clicks. Changing pitches in a mixed signal has never been so intuitive and musical.

Instant correction of tuning issues, straight-forward re-harmonisation or intricate restructuring of a composition’s pitches… the choice is yours, PITCHMAP does the rest.

PITCHMAP has so many uses we haven’t yet discovered all of them ourselves. Here’s a couple of the applications we’re aware of:

  • Engineers can correct tuning inaccuracies in mixed recordings
  • Composers can try different harmonies for their works in an immediate, hassle-free and inspiring manner
  • Music producers that work with sampled material can now sculpt the music inside the samples as if they were clay in the hands of a potter
  • DJs can adapt the key/scale of their songs to fit into a seamless set
  • Sound designers get a bunch of unique new ways of creating the sounds that make the films and games of today so immersive
  • Mash-Up artists and Re-Mixers now spend minutes instead of hours (or days) adapting the components they use to fit each other
  • Rapid song/score prototyping using existing recordings that can be transformed to be something new on-the-fly
  • Mix element suppression under MIDI control
  • Creating unique synthesizer sounds based on a live input
  • Create instant remixes and professional accompaniment tracks directly from your favorite songs or play list

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Mac OS X

  • macOS 10.15.x or newer, 64 bit. For earlier OS from 10.12.x onward, 32/64-bit, older versions may be downloaded..
  • Apple Silicon CPU, or Intel CPU with at least 2 Cores (i7 or better recommended).
  • Apple AU (AudioUnits), Steinberg VST 2.4, VST 3 or Avid AAX Native compatible Host software, processing audio as 32 bit float.
  • iLok.com account for machine- or iLok 2/3 based activation (of full as well as demo versions)
  • Internet Connection for Software Activation

Windows

  • Windows 8 or newer
  • CPU with at least 2 Cores; Intel CPU recommended, i7 or better recommended.
  • Steinberg VST 2.4, VST 3 or Avid AAX compatible 64-bit host software, processing audio as 32 bit float. For 32-bit application support, older versions may be downloaded.
  • iLok.com account for machine- or iLok 2/3 based activation (of full as well as demo versions)
  • Internet Connection for Software Activation

Copy Protection

This software uses the latest PACE copy protection, which allows you to place your activation on your machine or on an iLok 2* (or newer; not included). You will need a free iLok.com account to use our software, even for the the demos – but you do not necessarily need the iLok 2 dongle, if your machine has internet access (activation of a system without internet connectivity requires an iLok 2 device). All required software is installed along with our plugins, but we generally recommend downloading the latest versions directly from iLok.com.

*Please note: the older, first generation (blue) iLok is not supported!

CPU Load

Please note: While they are highly optimized, our plug-ins use a LOT of CPU due to the complex nature of the magic they perform. We recommend setting your playback buffer size to at least 512 or ideally 1024 samples for optimum performance.

As our plug-ins sport unique features not found in any other software, we highly recommend reading their manuals to ensure you get the most out of them!

No Returns on Software. Once your software is activated it is not eligible for returns.
