I've never used the hardware, so can't answer your questions, but I  
was never able to use any pitch correction with a cappella groups  
because they tend to tune to each other, and can drift a bit over the  
course of a song.  Since AT tries to keep vocals at a single  
reference pitch, you end up having to keep modifying the settings  
throughout the song.  Kind of a nightmare.  I ended up having better  
luck using the time and pitch machine to fix individual notes.  Well,  
I guess AT has a graphical mode that lets you draw in the amount of  
correction over time, so that might work.  I had only the old LE  
version and then Logic's pitch correction, which both have only  
automatic mode, and that's what wasn't working for me on the a  
cappella stuff.
