Transforming Vocals

Use the Vocal Transformer effect to transform the voice in a media clip.

To transform the voice in a media clip, do this:

Note: for the best results, it is recommended that the audio only contains the sound of voice, as the effect can affect the other audio harmonics in the clip.

1.Select the media file in the library that you want to transform the vocals in.
2.If required, use range selection to select the portion of audio you want to apply the effect to. See Range Selection for more information on selecting a range of an audio file. If you don't select a range, the effect is applied to the entire audio clip.

Note: the entire audio file's waveform is selected by default when this feature is opened. If you want to apply this feature to the entire audio file, you do not need to use range selection when the entire waveform is selected.

3.Decide whether you want to apply the effect on all the available channels, or just one channel. See Selecting Channels for Editing for more information on selecting channels.
4.Click Vocal Transformer under the Apply Effect section.
5.Select one of the Presets from the drop down. Each preset provides a different effect to the voice.
6.If required, click to modify the advanced settings as follows:
Pitch: use this slider to adjust the pitch of the transformed voice. Dragging the slider right will make the voice higher, while dragging it left will make it deeper.
Timbre: use this slider to adjust the tone quality of the voice. Adjusting this slider can significantly change the characteristics of the voice.

Note: if you selected a the Custom preset, you can then use the Robot voice and/or Duck voice as a starting point for the custom voice you create using the above settings.

7.If required, you can preview how the applied effect will sound by selecting Adjusted result and then clicking the play button on the playback controls. Select Original audio if you want to play the original audio.
8.Click Apply to apply the effect to the audio.

Note: if required, click on the Effect tab to see the applied effect in the edit panel. See Effect Tab for more information.
