Live pitch correction

I'm planning on singing on key during my performances but I was wondering if there's a way to do real time pitch correction (subtle and extreme) in a mainstage performance. It seems that the Logic pitch correction plug in has too much latency to work in a live concert.

Do other plug ins work for live pitch correction (like melodyne)?

Thanks.

No real-time available on Melodyne. I use the software Autotune for the T-pain, Cher effect live. No problems associated with it that I've encountered in the 4+ years I've been using it on stage. The Ilok has been a non-issue. Completely transparent with zero problems.(ymmv) Your only other option is to get the out-of-production Antares Autotune hardware box on E-Bay.

I schlep a 7-keyboard rig around with me, completely controlled by MainStage. All the laptop USB ports are in use, connected either to keyboards or to my multiport MIDI interface.

I don't want to have to now add a USB hub to this environment, nor do I want to take the risk of an iLok key breaking on me, i.e, laptop gets hit accidentally, etc.

More relevently, there are plenty of great commercial AUs and tools out there by well-known companies who don't stick you with dongles (AAS, NI, GForce, IKMultimedia, Spectrasonics etc.) and I'd rather show my support for their model.
