There was one posted on here a while back, just a small plugin.

Anyone got an idea what it was?

Melodyne & Mixed In Key both do it... Melodyne plugin can be opend in cubase and you just hit record and it records the notes into the melodyne window within cubase. Saves rewiring. Next month there new version is out with full polyphony editing and seperates chorded audio into individual notes. Never been anything like this before so exciting times for musicaly challenged people like me. biggrin

Someone postd a plugin a few months ago that you ran the sample through and it told you the key. Was a stand alone thing i think.

The sample was out by pitch, it sounded shit in every key. Some were close but not perfect.

Can you not stick it through a spectrum analyser? Then down load a key/frequency chart.

If you have a look at the peek at arround 500hz you'll see that there's a peek at 500hz intervals. Key B4 is at 493.88Hz

Using that method may allow you to see problem frequencies that you said made it sound shite on whatever key you tried and eliminate them.

Thats where you can find the chart I used that has the frequencies of all your notes (Note Frequency Chart). It's a bit big you might want to scale it down.

No problem dude.

I like Spec analysers because of the visual representation it gives. It will show you things you might not be able to hear. Wether that be through a bad set up (my problem), or due to the fact your deaf as a post.

I first started using a spec analyser after reading about harmonics on wiki, and thought it might be interesting to see how the signal changed when changeing different aspects of the synth running through it.
