"Now in this clip I'm going to talk a little bit about Melodyne's tuning tools. The basic tool is the standard point clicker. It allows you to start and listen to the track where ever you need to be. The second tool here gives you an actual box around your audio file, which allows you to move any audio file into any new note. And the easiest way to tune all notes at once is to select all the notes that you'd like to tune, click on the second tool button, which is the note tuning. And double click, if you double click it will move all notes to the correct pitch. If they're a little bit out or if they're not, you know, correct. If they're already in between a line, the auto tune tune will not move it, so therefore, you have to go through and make sure that each note is where it needs to be. Where you can just drag and pull each note to its corresponding or correct pitch. By doing this it makes it really easy to go through and customize and make sure that every note is pitch perfect as a tuning program should allow you to do. The other tools, a velocity tool, a length tool, a speed tool, and a clipping tool which allows you to clip the beginning or the end of different files."
