Choose Transpose Audio if you want to pitch-shift selected audio clips. If you check this checkbox.
SONAR transposes any selected audio data up or down, but only by half steps, not diatonically. When this
checkbox is enabled, the following two options become available:
Type—choose the type of audio data you're transposing. Choose options based on the source
material: single voice or instrument versus a group of instruments (ensemble or polyphonic),
and how long you want to wait for processing to finish: better quality can take a long time if
you're processing several tracks.
Formant scaling—possible values range from 2.000 to 2.000 octaves. Formants give a voice its
characteristic sound. You can use the Formant Scaling value to offset the pitch transposition you're applying.
For example, if you're transposing the pitch down, you can raise the formant to try and maintain the
characteristics of the sound..
6.
Click OK when you are done.
