I finally finished a tutorial on how to add autotune to vocals using completely free software (LMMS, GSnap and AAS autotune). I tried to make GSnap and AAS autotune sound as much like T-Pain as I could. I’m mostly happy with how my vocals turned out but I think Commercial autotune likely works/sounds better.
This tutorial uses html5 audio tags instead of flash. When I have time, I plan to convert most or all flash on my website to html5.
I added sound samples to show off the free VST instruments/effects listed on the LMMS tutorial on where to get VST instruments/effects and how to add them page. I used the html5 audio tags instead of Flash. I like these tags because they use less code then the xspf jukebox flash audio player I’ve been using. I may use audio tags for the rest of my site but I haven’t decided yet as html5 isn’t supported by many browsers yet (I believe Firefox 3.5+ and later versions of safari work with them). I think I can get away with it because most of my website visitors use Firefox. Users that don’t see the audio player will be able to download audio as ogg, (maybe mp3 if people want me to).
