Polyphonic pitch shifter
Re: Polyphonic pitch shifter
The ones that are built-in to Reaper work well for me. One client regularly shifts the key of his backing tracks by a few semitones and they come out sounding perfectly acceptable. Reaper gives you a choice of algorithms so if one doesn't seem to work then you can try another.

Same in Cubase - it’s not perfect, but it’s not bad. OP - is your DAW’s native pitch-shift not working well enough?

The Reaper one has a formant shifting feature too which massively improves it's usefulness on vocal music.

People often mistake me for a grown-up because of my age.

In logic, I use flex pitch which comes out pretty artefact free. Just go to the track inspector and use the transpose option and the flex pitch engine does the rest.
In my (albeit very limited) experience Ableton Live does amazing pitch manipulation.
