First, as discussed last month, you can hover over the horizontal line Smart Control towards the base of the selected segment and split the segment with the scissors tool. Two options are worth exploring if your 'phrase changing' requires more precise control. Audio artifacts are generally less of an issue when shrinking than stretching, but care is still needed if you wish to avoid the phrasing sounding unnatural. You'll eventually come up against unmanageable audio artifacts, but it's remarkable just how malleable VariAudio can make a vocal - particularly with syllables that already include some element of sustain, since these can often take more extreme changes before the audio rot sets in. Note that some pitch correction has also been applied, and the warp markers are displayed in the adjusted version.More extreme timing changes can be used for creative 'rephrasing' of your vocal. As with quantising, a little can go a long way here, but if you're after that super-slick, polished vocal style, this can help you achieve it - and when you make these kinds of small timing adjustments, the results can be incredibly transparent.Ī vocal phrase before (upper) and after (lower) gentle use of the Warp Smart Tools to align pitch segments within a phrase more closely to the musical grid. You can, for example, adjust the phrasing of syllables to hit an underlying beat/groove. (As you move the Warp Smart Controls for one segment, any segment adjoining the edge being moved is also stretched/compressed to compensate.) In a corrective context, this makes it very easy to make small timing adjustments to a performance. These don't change the pitch, but when grabbed and dragged left/right, Cubase will apply its audio-warping algorithms to time-stretch or time-compress the portion of the waveform bounded by the selected segment. If you enable Show All Smart Controls in the Inspector's VariAudio tab (discussed last month), when you hover over a pitch segment in the Sample Editor you'll see Warp Start and Warp End Smart Controls, located centre-left and centre-right respectively.
