Timestretching is always a case of managing your expectations as there is a definite limit on what can be achieved without compromising the material too much but it is an invaluable tool and often those compromises are worth it. Transients can be smeared, exposed tonal material can reveal glitchy artefacts. Varispeed is an outlier here as it doesn’t maintain pitch with speed but the other three focus on different types of content and within small adjustment ranges can give reasonable results, though when things fall apart they can do so very audibly. The original four algorithms - Polyphonic, Rhythmic, Monophonic and Varispeed are all suited to different uses. Elastic AudioĮlastic Audio was introduced to Pro Tools back in 2007 with Pro Tools 7.4. Elastique PRO however offers superior audio quality and unlike X-Form, can be used as a real time algorithm. It can’t participate with warp markers like the familiar elastic audio algorithms but it can be used to conform audio to tempo changes on a tick-based track. Melodyne is available as an Elastic Audio option. However Melodyne’s implementation is more limited than the other algorithms. Elastique PRO and Melodyne have both been added as options for elastic audio. So how different is it?īefore looking at elastique PRO further, it should be said that it is actually one of two new elastic audio options in ProTools 2023.3. It sounds better and is available to all tiers including the free Pro Tools Intro. While the major feature of Pro Tools 2023.3 has to be the long awaited native support for Apple Silicon, a significant sonic difference is introduced in the form of a new Elastic Audio algorithm - zplane’s elastique PRO.
