Frequency Shifting is NOT Pitch Shifting

Hey friends! Today I want to explore the differences between frequency shifting and pitch shifting, which are two very similar effects that have some very important differences,.

Would've been nice to hear an example of what a frequency shifter does to harmonic sounds and what a pitch shifter does to inharmonic sounds

[@matttinklermusic]

Totally agreed! I guess it's something I overlooked in this video 😅

[@KiraPlaysGuitar]

Don't know how I never knew or realised this. Cheers man, awesome vid!

Hey, new guy here! I'm doing some research involving mice and I was wondering if you'd be willing/able to assist me. Which microphone/device and which software would I need to see the 1 kHz - 110 kHz spectrum? And how might I shift these sounds into the human range of hearing?
I'm trying to design a mouse-detecting robot lol

Hey Martiln 😊 Thank you for this, and your videos in general. You explane things super clearly, and I realy appreciate that 😊 I am currently in the process of designing my own drum kit, using drum-rack in Ableton 11. I’ll try the frequecy shifter, for sure, when tuning toms, snare and kick

[@matttinklermusic]

You're welcome! Thank you for the kind words and thanks for watching! :D
Definitely try out the frequency shifter for drum tuning, you'll get a much better result than a pitch shifter, but you can also always transpose the sample (which, as long as you aren't warping it, will be an even better option at the expense of changing the length of the sample).

THAAAAANK YOU :D

You're welcome! :D

[@In_love_with_music]

there is cool torque live plugin for drums shifting

[@matttinklermusic]

I didn't know about this, looks very cool!

[@In_love_with_music]

@@matttinklermusic yes indeed very nice for shifting kick drum or a clap to fit the track
