What you get for free

Key and scale: Root plus Chromatic, Major or Minor, picked from a menu.

What it does not do

STARR TUNE corrects pitch automatically as the vocal plays. It does not draw notes on a graph or let you edit one note at a time. If you need note by note editing, a paid graphical editor is still the tool for that job. For the hard autotune sound and everyday correction, STARR TUNE covers it for free.

Free versus paid tuning

Premium tuning plugins can cost $400 or more, or come as a monthly subscription. STARR TUNE costs nothing and stays free: every update is free, there is no account inside the plugin, and it works in personal and commercial music.

How to get it

Leave your name, phone with country code and email on the STARR TUNE page.
Download the installer for Windows or Mac.
Open your DAW, rescan plugins if needed, and put STARR TUNE first on your vocal.
