AI pitch correction for natural vocal tuning
Melodyne alternative for vocal takes — workflow
A browser Melodyne alternative for home producers: edit vocal notes, apply the same correction settings to multiple takes, and return source-matched WAV files to your DAW.
- Export an isolated vocal WAV from your DAW. Keep leading silence so the clip start stays aligned, then load it here.
- Check key and scale, adjust tuning strength and notes, then Apply. Compare the result with the original.
- Open Batch and add up to 10 takes. Detect key per take or keep the current key/scale, then start processing. Each successful take uses one Apply.
- Choose Match source in Export format and download WAV or ZIP. Place each file at its original clip start in your DAW.
Before you start
Browser only, with no ARA or DAW plugin. Free Apply has daily limits; correction is intended for monophonic vocals.

Use the original WAV for DAW round trips. Match source adjusts only the end and never shifts the start. Stereo sources receive the corrected mono signal in both channels.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use this as a free Melodyne alternative?
You can try note editing and previews. Free Apply allows one use per day without an account or three with a free account. Each successful batch take uses one Apply. Pro removes the daily Apply limit; modes such as AI Natural HQ have separate conditions.
Does it work on Mac and Windows?
It runs in a supported browser on Mac or Windows without installation. Processing speed and memory use for long recordings depend on your device and browser.
Is there an ARA or DAW plugin?
This workflow is browser only, with no ARA, VST, AU or AAX plugin. Export a file from your DAW and import the corrected WAV.
What settings are reused across takes?
Batch reuses the correction engine, tuning strength and formant preservation settings. Choose detected or current key/scale. Manual note edits, range selections and generated harmony are specific to the first take and are not copied.
Will the export line up with the source?
When source format information is available, Match source produces 24-bit PCM WAV with the original sample rate, frame count and channel count. Only the end is padded or trimmed; the start is not shifted. Corrected mono is duplicated for stereo sources, so the original stereo image is not preserved. Place the file at the original clip start in your DAW.
Can I edit notes within chords or a finished mix?
This correction workflow is for monophonic vocals. It does not provide Melodyne DNA editing of individual notes inside chords. Try stem separation first if the vocal is mixed with accompaniment.
