"In this clip, I'm going to show you how to set specific sections of a region or of a file to become auto-tuned. Now the quickest and easiest way is to create your own track with the auto-tuning that you want and move the region from its original track. Say, would be audio four here, and take this second section I want auto-tuned to audio three. And the reason I would do this is because it's going to take away from processing of the computer and from different things that are going to make everything run slower. So, by having its own track I'm not going to have to automate anything, I'll be able to have something set where it is. It's not going to slow the computer down by trying to start using auto-tune and then not. The other way to do it is to go into your view, and go into the bypass of whatever insert you have your pitch correction on. So here, my pitch correction is on insert two, so now I'm viewing bypass insert two. So if I want only a certain part of it to be auto-tuned, I can have it be bypassed all the way until the end and then have it come on. Or vice versa where I had it before where it goes off at the end. And that's how you can set a certain section of an audio file to be auto-tuned."
