 Hey guys, welcome back to my YouTube channel. This is Daniel Rosso here for today's video going to be doing a quick look at the pitch modulation effect in Caden live. I've just grabbed a bit of video here up on my timeline from me speaking to the camera at a restaurant some time last week and a lot of people assume that to do a few audio things beyond gain and normalization in Caden. So I'm going to pull out the audio and work on it in audacity and then bring it back in and you can certainly do that for certain applications like background noise removal. But it's often unnecessary because the thing about Caden live is they have this, the way they lay out their effects is that main effects appear but then it's actually only a partial selection of the effects. To get all the effects you need to click into these two tabs where I'm jiggling my mouse. This is all the video effects and this is all the audio effects. Pitch modulation, why might you want to use it? Well, you've probably seen those videos on TV or the interview a gangster or something or an informant and they do silhouette interview lighting and stuff like that and they typically also try to make their voice obfuscated I think is the word I'm looking for. That's one example. There's probably other reasons but just to just to cover this one today. Now I definitely want to go through not perhaps all of these but many of these audio plugins in a different in different videos because some of them are super useful. We have a lot of stuff here. There's EQ and there are compressor expander plugins nested there under I think it's channels anyway they're in here somewhere and really really useful. And again a lot of stuff that you can do in post production even if you don't have you know an audio interface let's say with or a mixer with EQ and EQ functionalities. Alright let's just stick with this though pitch and time so we have three different effects rubber band octave shift rubber band pitch scale and sock stretch. Now you want to drag these onto the audio portion of the timeline because these are audio effects. I have it on twice for unknown reasons. So what would these do well if you're increasing the octave in the positive direction i.e. a positive offset you're going to be going in the squeaky squirrel direction. You know what I mean where you sound like a squeaky squirrel that's that direction and the other direction is going towards Darth Vader territory right so you're going to be lowering the octave. In my experience you don't a little goes a long way in terms of pitch modulation so just by decreasing the pitch by half an octave listen to the effect it has. Something I really like about editing effects in Caden live is that they apply immediately to the clip so I can actually play through the clip. Right and I minus five. And there's a little bit of latency as you can hear I've gone back to my normal voice so you can actually be scrubbing through the audio. I'm playing around with slight differences in the shift until you find what's not too deep to be unintelligible but deep enough that the voice of the interview subject is disguised. I'm talking about those kind of interviews where the voice has changed deliberately so let's try 0.3. If this were me trying to disguise the voice of this person well me I would probably go for a little bit more. Right and then if you go all the way to let's say minus 1.5 you're going to hear it's probably not even intelligible. And just to finish this off to show you guys what it sounds like in the other direction here is a positive pitch modulation of half an octave. Already sound pretty funny so this is a good one if you want to kind of play pranks on your friends or whatever and then if you go to one you're going to get like super, super squeaky. So there's other ones here but that's pitch modulation so as I said if you do want to use it for if you are shooting an anonymous interview and you want to some for whatever reason anonymize your interview subject you can go ahead and do that. So as I said there's tons and tons more audio effects just really lying here there has to be a good 50 of them if not more and I'm going to try cover as many as I can in future videos. Because CadenLive is a program that looks pretty simple at first glance but there's an awful lot of firepower here just under the surface waiting for eager Linux using video people to explore.
