Does Logic Pro have auto-tune?

Yes. Logic’s Pitch Correction plug-in corrects pitch in real time to a key and scale, and a fast Response setting gives the hard, stepped autotune sound. Flex Pitch, in the Audio Track Editor, lets you correct notes one by one.

How do I get the T-Pain or Future autotune sound in Logic?

Insert Pitch Correction first on the vocal, set the Root Note and Scale to the song’s key, and turn Response all the way down so the voice jumps between notes. The key has to be right, or hard tuning makes wrong notes obvious. In TineEQ you can ask for “hard autotune like Future on the hook, natural on the verses”.

Is Antares AutoTune better than Logic’s Pitch Correction?

AutoTune is the plug-in behind the classic hard-tuned sound, and AutoTune Pro 11 adds Graph Mode for detailed editing. Logic’s Pitch Correction is free with Logic and is enough for a lot of songs. Try Logic first.

Does GarageBand have auto-tune?

Yes. In GarageBand’s Audio Editor, drag the Pitch Correction slider on the track. It can be limited to the project’s key. TineEQ’s tuning also works in GarageBand.

Does TineEQ replace Melodyne or Flex Pitch?

Not for note-by-note editing yet. TineEQ tunes the whole vocal live to the song’s key and leaves notes that are already in tune alone. Its note-by-note editor, Graph mode, is built and being tested, but not available yet.

Auto-tune in Logic Pro: Pitch Correction, Flex Pitch, AutoTune or TineEQ?

You don’t need to buy anything to auto-tune a vocal in Logic Pro. Here is what the built-in tools do well, when a paid plug-in is worth it, and where TineEQ fits.

3 November 2026 · 3 min read

Apple’s features are from the Logic Pro User Guide. Other prices were checked on each company’s own site in November 2026; plug-in companies run sales often.

The short answer

Natural tuning or hard autotune on a budget: Logic’s Pitch Correction, free with Logic.
Fixing a few notes by hand: Flex Pitch, also free with Logic.
The classic AutoTune sound and graph editing: Antares AutoTune Pro 11.
Detailed, transparent note editing: Celemony Melodyne.
Tuning as part of a whole mix, from plain words: TineEQ.

Logic’s Pitch Correction plug-in

Pitch Correction corrects the voice in real time towards the notes of a scale. The settings that matter:

Root Note and Scale: set them to the song’s key. Get this wrong and tuning sounds worse than none.
Response: how fast the voice is pulled to the note. Low values give the hard, stepped autotune sound. Higher values sound more natural.
Tolerance: a zone around each note where nothing is corrected. Higher values let vibrato through.
Edit Scale on the keyboard: remove notes the melody never uses, so the voice isn’t pulled to them.
Neural Pitch Detection sets the pitch range for you.

Our step-by-step guide to tuning vocals in Logic Pro covers natural and hard settings in detail.

Flex Pitch

Flex Pitch works on the recording rather than in real time. Turn on Flex Pitch in the Audio Track Editor and each note appears as a block you can move, resize, split or merge. Each note has handles for start drift, vibrato, end drift, gain, fine pitch and formant. To tune a passage, select the notes and drag the Pitch Correction slider; Scale Quantize chooses the key. Apple notes that Flex Pitch is accurate only on monophonic audio, so it suits a single vocal, not a stack.

Fix the notes that bother you and leave the rest. Pulling every note to perfect removes the life from a performance.

GarageBand

GarageBand has a simpler version: in the Audio Editor, drag the Pitch Correction slider for the track, and limit it to the project’s key. It works on every region on the track.

Antares AutoTune

Antares (which now writes the name “AutoTune”) makes the plug-in behind the famous sound. The current line includes AutoTune Pro 11, AutoTune Advanced, a simpler AutoTune 2026, and AutoTune EFX+ 10 for effects. Pro 11 has Graph Mode for drawing pitch by hand, supports ARA2 in Logic, needs macOS 14 or later and runs natively on Apple Silicon.

Pricing: Antares listed AutoTune Pro 11 at US$500 and AutoTune 2026 at US$300 as regular prices in March 2026, and AutoTune Unlimited, a subscription to its whole catalogue, at US$30 a month or US$300 a year. Antares runs frequent sales, and one was on when we checked, so look at the current price before you buy. There is a free trial.

Celemony Melodyne

Melodyne 5 is the standard tool for detailed, natural note editing. Editions run from Essential (US$99) to Studio (US$699, list US$849), and there is a 30-day trial. It runs as an Audio Unit and integrates into Logic through ARA. Celemony’s own site notes that on Apple Silicon, Logic doesn’t yet fully support ARA natively and suggests running Logic under Rosetta, so check their current advice for your setup.

Other options

Waves Tune Real-Time: live correction, US$34.99 on sale (US$199 list) when we checked.
Slate Digital MetaTune: US$149, or included in Slate’s subscription.
Soundtoys Little AlterBoy: US$99. Pitch and formant shifting with a hard-tune quantize, more of an effect than a corrector.
iZotope Nectar 4: a vocal chain with a pitch module, from US$55. See TineEQ vs iZotope.

Where TineEQ fits

TineEQ’s Vocal mode tunes live on the track, so there’s nothing to bounce. It finds the song’s key itself and leaves notes you already sang in tune alone. You ask for the sound you want:

hard autotune like Future on the hook, natural on the verses

Then it carries on with the rest of the vocal chain (EQ, de-essing, compression, reverb and delay) and the mix, if you ask. Every vocal track, doubles and harmonies included, is tuned to the same key.

What it doesn’t do yet, plainly:

Note-by-note editing. Graph mode is built and being tested, but not available yet. For one stubborn note, use Flex Pitch or Melodyne.
Very low voices. Tuning on very low voices can sound grainier than Antares.
Tempo changes. TineEQ needs a song at one constant tempo.

It costs US$14.99 a month or US$149 a year, with no free trial, and works in Logic Pro and GarageBand on macOS 14 or later.
