Best time stretch app??

Hey DJ - I went through this search a few months ago and, price for performance I ended up purchasing Melodyne UNO and will be upgrading to studio soon. Absolutely fabulous sound, and dead-simple UI.


Hope this helps,
Shaun

I watched a youtube vid of BT from 2002 & he says he only (back then) used Time Bandit for vocals

You wouldn't happen to be talking about the "Lost Footage" interview, would you? I shot that video when I was at MacAddict. 🙂

Cool - I enjoyed watching that BT video, and give a huge amount of respect to BT's talent and passion.

He seems to get so much internet-hate for various reasons, but I think he's a bright, talented and passionate about what he does, which is cool in my book... 😉

+1 for Radius
I have certain "ethical" issues with Melodyne at the moment. It's partly the bandwagon thing, it's mostly the idea of adding all that extra work into my flow when all I really need is excellent time/pitch manipulation for drastic FX down to subtle touch ups. 90% of what I read about Melodyne, despite how excellent the program is in its own right, is all about pitch correction and treating audio like MIDI... FUNK DAT!

+1 for BT
I met him back in 2003 and he really is just the coolest, most relaxed guy I've ever met.

yes i was talking about that video. how did u get him to be part of that? i remember thinking the 1st time i watched it "how the heck has someone organised this?!?!?!"
awsome video! he's one of my musical heros along witth trent reznor. got any vids of him???....

MacAddict Magazine (back when it was called that) did a feature on him, and the theme was "making music with Macs" or something. I was in charge of the CD-ROM, so it behooved me to have an accompanying video. The "lost footage" video was actually a follow-up to the previous, which was more interview-style.

Imagine my surprise when we asked him to demonstrate his process of remixing a song and he opened the "The Revolution," which was a fresh release at the time of the interview.

The only other video I had of him is the stuff is from the same interview, but didn't make the final edit. They're no longer in my possession.

It was kind of cool to work at the magazine when I did, especially as the "video guy," though I wasn't able to do the shooting for the interview with Thomas Dolby, The Crystal Method and Moby, among others. I do consider myself lucky to have shot the BT stuff though, since he was my biggest influence at the time.

And yes, he was an extremely nice guy.

I don't know if it's the best anyway.....

iZotope Radius is the best I have used, followed by the polyphonic algorithm in Melodyne Studio, which is also pretty good...

I do not. Never had the opportunity.
