# Autotune a singing video in your browser

To autotune a video of yourself singing, open IchiPitchy's Creator Studio in desktop Chrome or Edge and drop in the clip — MP4, MOV or WebM, up to 90 seconds. Only the audio is sent for tuning: every note and the key are detected, auto-tune snaps the vocal into tune, and you export one MP4 with the tuned voice on your original footage. The video file never leaves your browser.

## How do I autotune a video of myself singing?

IchiPitchy Creator Studio is four steps in one tab: Video, Tune, Design and Export. You pick the clip, IchiPitchy lifts the audio out of it inside the browser and uploads just that audio, and the editor opens with every note of your vocal plus its key and scale already detected.

Turn on auto-tune, check the key, set how hard the notes snap and preview it. When it sounds right, move on to the video editor to style the clip, then export.

## Can you autotune a video after you've recorded it?

Yes — that is exactly what it is for. Record the take on your phone or camera the way you normally would, move the file to your computer and tune it afterwards. Nothing has to be set up before you sing, and you can change the tuning later without singing it again.

## Autotune or note-by-note correction: which does my video need?

Auto-tune works on the whole performance at once. It suits a take that is mostly in tune with a few wobbly notes, and it is the only way to get the obvious, locked-to-the-grid effect.

Note-by-note correction suits a take where one or two notes are clearly off. Drag just those notes on the piano roll, or reshape a single note's pitch curve, and the rest stays exactly as you sang it. You can use both on the same video.

## How do I keep autotune on a singing video sounding natural?

- Check the detected key first. Snapping to the wrong scale is the most common reason a tuned vocal sounds worse than the take.
- Keep Level around 30–50% for a corrected but human voice. 100% is the deliberate robotic effect.
- Raise Smooth on held notes so your vibrato survives.
- Fix one flat word by hand instead of turning Level up for the whole clip.
- Judge it with the picture. Slides and breaths that look natural on camera usually sound better left alone.

## How do I make my voice sound better in a singing video?

Tuning is only part of it. A phone recording also picks up room noise and often sounds thin or harsh, so the editor carries the rest of a vocal chain: noise reduction for hiss and hum, EQ to take out boxiness or harshness, a compressor to even out loud and quiet lines, and reverb or delay so the voice stops sounding like a small room.

Go gently. A little of each, previewed with the picture, sounds better than any one effect pushed hard.

## What if there's music playing behind my voice?

Auto-tune listens for one voice, so a backing track under your vocal gets in the way. If you sang over a speaker or an instrumental, isolate the vocal in the editor first. The music is kept as a separate backing, and at export you choose Vocal + backing to put it back under your tuned voice, or Vocal only.

## Does the tuned vocal stay in sync with the video?

Yes. Pitch correction changes the notes, not the length of the vocal, so your voice still lines up with your lips. On export the audio is aligned to the video's frames and both are written into one MP4. Timing only moves if you shift a note's timing yourself.

## Is my video uploaded anywhere?

No. The footage is decoded, styled and encoded inside your browser tab and is never uploaded or stored. What does go to IchiPitchy is the audio track, because pitch detection and the high-quality tuning render run on the server. A video project saves that audio rather than your video file, so keep your original clip.

## Step by step

1. **Open IchiPitchy Creator Studio and drop in the clip.** In desktop Chrome or Edge, pick an MP4, MOV or WebM up to 90 seconds that has sound. The audio is lifted out in the browser; the video stays on your computer.
2. **Let IchiPitchy detect the notes and key.** The editor opens with every sung note and the key and scale detected. If there is music behind your voice, isolate the vocal first.
3. **Tune the vocal.** Turn on auto-tune, set Level and Smooth, and drag any single note that still needs help.
4. **Style the video.** Pick a film look, crop to 9:16 or another frame, and add fades, a title and — on Pro — lyric captions.
5. **Export the MP4.** Choose the quality, up to 4K when the clip was filmed in 4K, and the MP4 is encoded in the tab with your tuned vocal.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I autotune a video I've already recorded?

Yes. IchiPitchy Creator Studio tunes an existing clip, so you record however you like and tune it afterwards.

### Is there a free way to autotune a video?

Yes. The free plan includes one video project and one MP4 export, and auto-tune and note editing are not metered inside it. Lyric captions and further video exports need IchiPitchy Pro.

### Do I need to download an app?

No. It is a website. IchiPitchy Creator Studio needs desktop Chrome or Edge because the video is processed in the browser; it does not run on phones yet.

### Why does my autotuned video sound robotic?

Level is too high, Smooth is too low, or the key is wrong. Check the key, bring Level down to around 30–50% and raise Smooth so your vibrato survives.

### How do I edit a video of me singing so I sound good?

Tune the vocal first — auto-tune for the whole take or note by note for a few bad notes — then add light noise reduction, EQ, compression and reverb in the same editor, and export the video with that voice.

### Can I fix only the off-key notes?

Yes. Leave auto-tune off and drag just those notes on the piano roll; everything else stays as you sang it.

### Can I autotune a singing video with a backing track?

Yes. Isolate the vocal first so only your voice is tuned, then export with Vocal + backing to keep the music under it.

### What video formats and lengths work?

MP4, MOV and WebM (MKV and M4V are accepted too), up to 1 minute 30 seconds. The clip must have sound.

### What quality is the exported video?

One MP4 with H.264 video and AAC audio, sized from your clip up to 4K. IchiPitchy does not add a watermark.

### Will my voice stay in sync with my lips?

Yes. Tuning changes pitch, not length, and the export lines the audio up with the video's frames.

### Is my video uploaded?

No. Only the audio track is uploaded, for tuning. The video is processed in your browser and never stored.

### Can I add a harmony to my singing video?

Yes. The harmony generator in the editor builds 3rd, 5th and octave voices from your own take, and they are part of the video's exported audio.
