AudioPitchShifter
Inherits from: Instance → Object
AudioPitchShifter adjusts the perceived pitch of audio streams. It provides one Input pin and one Output pin which can be connected to/from by Wires. AudioPitchShifter performs its modifications in the frequency domain and may introduce artifacts with extreme pitch changes.
