I have a problem and I donºt know how to solve it. I have a song and a choir of people who donºt know how to sing (at least one of them is terrible) and I need to put everything in pitch. The problem is thatt it is only one track. I canºt use autotune or can I? Do I have any good solution for this? Please help

record one of them at a time and then fix the pitch one track at a time.

If just one sucks, then tell them not to sing, if the results are important. Letting go of a sucky singer is a quick way to fix up a choir....

Sorry, you are basically screwed. You can't autotune just one voice in a choir. I think that the best you can do is to just use the good parts and edit out the bad parts. Perhaps you can do some creative copy/paste/crossfade if you have some repeated parts.

get melodyne its easy and great for pitch correction.

It may be a bit late for this, but you could try recording the choir in a different key. Generally the more sharps or flats, the easier it is for a choir to tune. Nobody really knows why that is, but my collegiate choir will very often sing a piece a half step up or down from it's written key.

Like I said, probably not useful to you at this point (or maybe ever), but I thought I'd throw that out there.
