Melodyne

I'm always blown away with how powerful Melodyne is. It's unreal that I can tune individual notes so effortlessly, and still can't believe I can view chords separated into individual notes on a piano roll, and tune those too! Crazy!

electricsky

fun to play around with, and edit vocals (among other things) of course.
