Earlier this year, Antares and Universal Audio raised the bar for AutoTune on UA interfaces with AutoTune Realtime Advanced. With enhanced features such as Classic Mode for the popular “AutoTune 5” sound, Realtime Advanced quickly became a favorite for songwriters, producers and mixers. Now it’s time to stir things up again with new AutoTune Realtime Access for UA audio interfaces.

Auto-Tune Realtime Access interface

AutoTune Realtime Access delivers the core AutoTune features with a simple and intuitive interface. Three-position Retune Speed and Humanize knobs allow for a variety of tuning applications, from subtle and natural-sounding pitch correction to the most extreme AutoTune Effect. Dedicated processing on UA hardware saves on CPU and lets you perform through AutoTune Realtime Access on stage or in the studio, without worrying about distracting latency.


Now, with the release of AutoTune Realtime Access, even more artists can experience the joy of recording with real-time, low-latency AutoTune processing.


And now, for a limited time, it’s included with every new Arrow or Apollo Twin X Duo purchased between 11/14/2019 and 12/31/2019.
