Pitch Detection

The Wavetable Editor automatically detects the pitch of samples that are added.

Positions in a sample where the pitch is properly detected usually contain a harmonic spectrum that is suitable for wave extraction. In some cases, however, the pitch cannot be detected correctly. This can be the case if a vocal sample contains breath noises, for example.

Normally, you would not want to use these positions in samples for wave extraction. Therefore, for visual feedback and orientation, you can display and edit the pitch detection curve in the Wavetable Editor.
