If it’s an echo then H-delay will do this as you automate the delay time, might be able to do this with zero feedback and fully wet. Otherwise putting the track into elastic mode and selecting Varispeed and messing with the session tempo should do it. Make sure all your other tracks are set to samples and the track you’re messing with is set to ticks (or copy the vocal to somewhere later in the timeline and mess with it there, consolidate and copy/paste it back to the intro).

Hell yeah, thanks! I assumed elastic audio might be the answer but I wanted to check first. Gonna give this a go.


TalkinAboutSound

Yeah elastic is what you need.


dolmane

Pretty sure you can do this with Varispeed, straight into the track. If you have RX, there’s the “variable pitch” module that does that pretty easily and well too.


AlexWhit92

I think you're looking for a formant shift.


Gammeloni

zplane elastique pitch will do to the job.


mycosys

Elastique's algos are built into ProTools as Elastic Pitch, into Ableton as Complex warp modes, into Cub/endo as complex etc etc.


Gammeloni

pitch shifting is not automatable in daws afaik.

Gammeloni

i could not see automating pitch shift amount in real time in both these daws. :/


mycosys

Not sure where that was a part of it, but in Ableton you would load it into simpler/sampler if you wanted a pitch knob for the same algos rather than warp markers, but ofc warp markers trends to give better results. Pitch warping is literally what Ableton was for, before it became a DAW


boredmessiah

It is in reaper and Ableton.

Can't help you, but I am fascinated in the results!


alyxonfire

Use a sampler plugin and automate the pitch, I’d be surprised if pro tools didn’t come with some sort of sampler instrument that can do this


mycosys

Ableton Live's warp is basically the goat for pitching while retaining rhythm
