Santa Maria

This track was recorded with two different singers and melodyne was used on both of them differently. 

1. The lead vocalist had a pleasing wiggle in his voice along with a lot of character, so I typically tuned his vocals without changing much of the "pitch drift". I mainly focused on manually adjusting each note a few semitones up or down (using the option + drag function). A light use of melodyne made his voice sink in perfectly with the harmonies and instruments. On the other hand, a heavy use of melodyne on his voice actually caused him to sound worse.

2. The guest vocalist can be heard more obviously towards the end of the song, but also has layers coming in and out throughout the entirety of the track. He sounded better with a heavier use of melodyne. His voice didn't blend as well with the lead singer until I adjusted the "vibrato" and "pitch shift" settings quite a bit to make each word match what the lead singer was doing. Once I tweaked this vocal to match the lead with melodyne it locked in beautifully

Thanks to melodyne this track really came to life!
