    Default Vocal Shifting

    I was wondering if anyone knew how to shift the tone of a vocal sample, giving it a higher or lower pitch in frequency. Here are a couple of examples:

    I run ableton live. Any help is very much appreciated. Thanks guys.

    check the part where they put a vocal ontop. its all about the pitch automation!

    I notice the effects and how he fits the vocals in rhythmically. However, I'm shooting to imitate one of the examples i provided earlier. I want to shift or manipulate the tone or key of the vocals in which i am working with.

    Open up the Envelope by clicking the e in the bottom left corner and click transpose within that menu and then just adjust how u like.

    Are you looking for "Transpose"?

    If you transpose this way instead of in the envelope, it will shorten the sample will it not?

    There is something definitely odd about the transpose knob. i cant quite pin point it but if i had to i'd say that it makes the sample sound waxy, it seems as it is not meant to shift keys of the song but for maybe another reason that i have not figured out yet.
