André please consider this

It is the most requested thing I've seen so far :)
It takes the input (e.g. Audiotrack, Centroid, Heisenberg, ANYTHING) and pitchshifts it from between -12 semitones to +12 semitones (Maybe 24, idk) and makes it a higher pitch. It can be enabled and disabled. It would work on any input btw. I've seen it in other DAWs so why not add it into AT? I'm sure it wouldn't be too difficult.
I would need it to pitchshift a track to make it sound better without having to remake everything and use a machiniste for audiotracks to pitchshift. I would also use it to make Synthonix-esque key changes.
(If you were wondering, i made it based off of a picture of the StereoEnhancer)

I would prefer if were reminiscent to the Tiny Gain since it has a singular knob. Otherwise, this would be a simple feature much like the tiny gain, and couldn't hurt to implement, even though pitch can be controlled through synths and the machinist.

Also, This would actually be a REALLY useful feature if you decide you want to change the pitch of multiple synths by saving automation!

ok.

It's just that I feel most ATers would like this.
I also have a workaround to this problem; it involves a new feature called "render", where you can render one track/channel, like one heisenberg or something, and then maybe right click on the rendered audio and "attach" a pitchshifter pedal to it. Like, maybe, (this is probably too much, but) it could open a new interface when you select "attach" on the "rendered" audio, and you can add effects and stuff.
Or, as a much simpler option, you can use the "create sample from timeline" option, and make it so you can only use the pitchshifter pedal on audiotracks: this, I think would be a workaround to the latency option.
Of course, this is all theoretical, but I think that this would be great for key changes and whatnot. It would also be used for like snare risers (you could use the machiniste), but it could then be used on things to edit the entire track.
Please André, consider this, specifically option 2 as it wouldn't require too many new features, as I have made the pedal, and the sample option is already there.
Oh, and I made another concept on feature requests where I created a new concept for a Heisenberg-esque synth, called the "Tesla" - It's a WIP and I update it based on suggestions :) Check it out!
