Hi
The Steve Harris plug in transposes everything by a fixed amount.  
Antares autotune 'tunes' out of tune sounds - it has been used as an 
effect but is also the number 1 criminal in propping up bands where 
people look trendy but can't actually sing in tune.  When you get used 
to its distinct sound you can recognise it on a lot of chart records.   
I used a friends copy on a guitar line once & it made it sound really 
'sweet'  - it was actually a very nice sound, you can add a certain 
amount of vibrato too.  I'd love it on Linux - it can be like sprinkling 
fairy dust on a take - but it does raise aesthetic/ethical  issues about 
music as a result of ones ability versus music as a result of ones vision. 

BTW: I have loved this series of  vocal tips - thanks folks!
