As the title states.

I'm having trouble with my own pitchy vocals, apparently. I like to leave my vocals rather untouched, just tweaking >25ct notes a majority of the time.

So with the note-to-note approach, its already a tedious matter. But then there's the other matter, pitch drift. I can't find anything on the interwebs about this. What is the common SOP for this? An AI Summary stated that 100% was the rule and that people go to as low as 50-60%, though. This just sounds dubious, though.

I'm doing R&B if it matters. I'm praying no one says to manually go through notes and use the pitch modulation tool. But I could see that as warranted. I don't want to flatten my vibrato, just tweak out any real, unwarranted drift. Do people just look for held notes and tweak those? I guess that wouldn't be insufferable.

And just as a side-question, is my 25ct note rule fair? I've heard the ear discerns 10-15ct off-tuned...ness. I'm just going for the microtonal aspect. But maybe I should consider 24-26ct fair game and anything >15ct as tweak territory. Particularly on held notes and root notes.

Edit: And I do use Auto-Tune too. Usually 20-25 retune speed. Feel like that's slow but maybe it's fast?

Thanks for any help!
