Antares Audio Technology releases Auto-Tune Slice - Precision Vocal Sampler
Antares Audio Technology has announced the release of Auto-Tune Slice, a hybrid instrument that's both a precision sampler and flexible synthesizer and features an ever-expanding library of exclusive presets, advanced vocal transient detection, built-in effects, and Auto-Tune functionality.
Optimized for vocals—but equally effective for beats, instruments, and other audio—Auto-Tune Slice turns samples into manageable slices that automatically map to your MIDI controller. Auto-Tune Slice turns any sample into a playable instrument, enabling you to rearrange slices, create new phrases and patterns, and easily manipulate your sounds with 14 onboard effects.
Auto-Tune Slice comes with over 200 vocal samples and presets representing a wide range of genres and styles. This custom content was created by professional sound designers as well as some of the most influential and respected producers and artists working today. Exclusive presets from Grammy-winning artists and producers Bon Iver and Aaron Dessner (Taylor Swift, The National) are all included.
In addition to the content that comes with Auto-Tune Slice, in the coming weeks Antares will be launching an evolving ecosystem of new custom presets and samples called Samplescape. Samplescape will deliver regular updates of new and exclusive vocal content that are available free of charge to anyone with an active subscription to Auto-Tune Unlimited.
Direct Auto-Tune integration lets you tune your samples without ever leaving the Auto-Tune Slice environment. With its advanced transient detection algorithm, Auto-Tune Slice slices up vocals more accurately than traditional samplers.
Auto-Tune Slice is an engine of pure expression. By combining the value of regular updates to Samplescape content with our innovative vocal technology, we're giving creators endless opportunities by delivering fresh Samplescape content on a regular basis. Auto-Tune is the sound of today's modern vocals. With the release of Auto-Tune Slice, we're proud to continue making ground-breaking contributions that give anyone the power to express their best voice.
