Rock Band 3 Uses Licensed Pitch-Tuning for Better Accuracy, Performances
Brian Leahy
3
Just as Harmonix is making the instrument play in Rock Band 3 more realistic with Pro mode, the vocals are going to be more realistic as well. How? By incorporating the hottest trend in popular music today: auto-tune! Well, "pitch detection and pitch shifting", to be more precise.

iZotope's Technology has announced that its pitch tech is being used in Rock Band 3. During gameplay, players can "enable vocal effects commonly used in the music industry, assisting players to sing on key more easily with pitch correction." Bring on the Cher DLC. No Cher, how about Kanye?

Rock Band 3 is due out this holiday season for the PS3, Xbox 360, and Wii.

    Last Saturday I took my RB stuff over to a friend's place for his bday bbq bash. Out of all the singing that was done the highest score went to ... a friend's dog.

    Most of the folks who grabbed the mic were getting in the 40% range. My buddy's dog loves to howl and at one point he put the mic in front of the dog for nearly an entire song.

    The dog got an 86%.

      If you were only scoring in the 40% range in vocals, you weren't drunk enough.
