--- Begin Message ---Package: autotalent Version: 0.2-4 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch The package description for autotalent contains a trivial grammatical error. > Package: autotalent [...] > Description: pitch correction LADSPA plugin > Autotalent is a real-time pitch correction plugin. Users can specify > the notes that a singer is allowed to hit, and Autotalent makes sure > that they do. Autotalent may be used for more exotic effects, like > the Cher / T-Pain effect, making your voice sound like a chiptune, > adding artificial vibrato, or messing with your formants. Autotalent > can also be used as a harmonizer that knows how to sing in the scale > with you. Or, you can use Autotalent to change the scale of a melody > between major and minor or to change the musical mode. (So far so good... note that the user is consistently being addressed as "you".) > . > Autotalent was designed from the ground up to process musical melodies, > whether sung by voice or played on some kind of instrument. "Sung by voice" is a bit unidiomatic - after all, singing is always "by voice". The simplest fix is to drop those two words. > As long as > one gives it a monophonic source (i.e. a melody in a single, 1-channel > track), he can usually expects pretty good results. Referring to the user as "one" is oddly formal English when it's surrounded by examples of referring to the user as "you"; and then it leads to an unnecessarily gender-biassed use of "he" and a verb agreement error, "can expects". Make this "As long as you give it [...], you can usually expect [...]". > So this means that > if you're in the business of processing vocal harmonies, you should > apply it to each monophonic vocal part separately. If in the spirit of > experimentation you're daring enough to try tuning or pitch shifting > an entire chord using one instance of the plugin (again not what it's > meant for), you'll hear gritty nastiness.
