  audio recording and editing application that lets you process and manipulate
  audio files in a revolutionary but musically intuitive way. Melodyne detects
  the individual notes of a recorded melody and lets you manipulate them “regardless of whether the source audio comprises vocals solo instruments or percussion” as easily as if they were MIDI. Melodyne lets you arrange
  and combine existing audio files and refashion sounds using functions that
  are powerful and precise without ever losing sight of their musical purpose."
