How to tune, mix and export vocals online
To tune a vocal online with IchiPitchy: upload your take, let it detect the notes and key, set Auto-Tune to that key and scale, then drag individual notes on the piano roll or reshape their pitch curves by hand. Add effects, generate a backing band if you want one, mix the tracks, and export a lossless WAV. It runs in a browser tab with nothing to install.
1. Import your audio
Upload WAV, MP3, FLAC, M4A, AAC, OGG or WEBM (up to 100 MB). IchiPitchy detects every note and the key and scale you sang in, automatically.
2. Tune the vocal
Auto-Tune snaps notes to a chosen key and scale. Level controls how hard notes snap — 0% is natural, 100% is the hard robotic effect. Smooth controls how much vibrato and ornamentation is preserved. For manual control, drag a note block to move its pitch, or double-click it to edit its pitch curve with control points.
3. Isolate vocals from a song
If you only have a finished mix, AI vocal separation splits it into vocal and instrumental stems, so you can isolate vocals or remove vocals from a song. Stems download as a .zip.
4. Add a backing band
Generate drums, bass, keys, guitars and more from a chord progression. Choose a style, key, scale, tempo, time signature (29 available, including odd meters) and chords. Each instrument arrives on its own mixer track.
5. Mix and export
The multitrack mixer gives every track a fader, pan, solo/mute, metering and its own effects — EQ, compressor, reverb, delay and more. Export a lossless 24-bit or 32-bit float WAV, or export stems.

How IchiPitchy compares to desktop vocal tools
IchiPitchy runs in a browser tab, so there is nothing to install and it works on any machine with a modern browser — including locked-down or borrowed laptops where installing a DAW is not possible. It is a focused vocal studio rather than a general-purpose DAW.
| Capability | IchiPitchy | Typical desktop pitch editor |
|---|---|---|
| Installation | None — runs in the browser | Desktop install, often as a DAW plugin |
| Cost | Tuning, harmony, recording and mixing free and unmetered; exports and AI features have a monthly free allowance that resets, then Pro is $3/mo or $33/yr | Paid licence |
| Note-by-note pitch editing | Yes | Yes |
| Pitch-curve editing | Yes — control points per note | Yes |
| AI vocal / instrumental separation | Built in | Usually a separate tool |
| Backing band generation | Built in — 50 instruments | Not typically included |
| Multitrack mixing | Built in | Requires the host DAW |
| MIDI recording and plugin hosting | No | Yes, via the DAW |
| Lossless export | 24-bit and 32-bit float WAV | Yes |
Common questions
How do I tune a vocal online without installing anything?
Upload the take, let IchiPitchy detect the notes and the key you sang in, then set Auto-Tune to that key and scale. For finer control, drag individual notes on the piano roll or reshape their pitch curves by hand. It all runs in a browser tab.
What audio formats can I import and export?
Import WAV, MP3, FLAC, M4A, AAC, OGG or WEBM up to 100 MB. Export a lossless WAV at 24-bit or 32-bit float, an MP3, MIDI of the detected notes, or the separated stems as a zip.
Does IchiPitchy work on a phone?
The full studio is desktop-first, because pitch editing needs a pointer and screen space. A trimmed mobile flow exists, but the editor, mixer and generator are designed for a desktop browser.
