Using Tunebat for analysis00:02:07

Instead of paying for expensive software, you can use the free tool Tunebat.com. Simply navigate to their key and BPM finder, drag and drop your audio file, and wait for the analysis to provide the accurate results in seconds.

Once the website identifies the key and BPM, you can verify your DAW settings. Apply a pitch correction plugin (like Logic's stock Pitch Corrector) using the identified key and scale to ensure your vocals are tuned perfectly to the music.
