the

Remember, in worst case you can always select the troublesome or overworked segment, 

clear it then scan it again to start from the beginning.  

 

MIDI Receive/Export  

Tune allows easy use of MIDI functions such as correcting to notes that come in real time 

through MIDI, or exporting a pitch curve to a MIDI file.  

 

Receive MIDI

 – In this mode, Tune will “listen” for MIDI input. When Tune receives a 

MIDI note, it will set that note as the target note, overriding the scale and root logic 

parameters.  This is useful if you prefer to “teach” Tune the correct note by playing it on a 

MIDI keyboard.   

 

Consult the user’s manual of your host application to learn how to send MIDI to a plug-in.  

 

 

Export MIDI

 – Is located on the top left toolbar. Clicking this will prompt you for a 

location and filename and will generate a standard MIDI file which you can import back 

into your favorite MIDI sequencer. This will allow playing a MIDI instrument in unison 

with your vocal track, for example. You can also use Export MIDI to tune the pitch of 

another track against the newly exported, pitch-corrected vocal which you exported as a 

MIDI file.  Tune can be used as a straightforward pitch to MIDI converter.
