More questions than answers
#7
I would NEVER use Autotune, Melodyne, VariAudio, etc. in automatic mode. Really, never. When I tune vocals, basses, horns, ... , I go through the whole track note by note and edit each one properly (which also involves splitting up words into syllables, isolating consonants and ss/sh/breath sounds and dealing with each of them indivdually).

I did not do any fixes on this particular tune (my mix was a quick one), so I cannot really tell how easy or difficult it would be, but in general I find it more appropriate to just fix the few notes that really stick out as being wrong, and leave the rest alone.

Pro Tool does not have a full-blown pitch correction tool like Cubase's VariAudio, nor does it have ARA integration support for Melodyne (like Studio One and Sonar), but you can do some more or less acceptable editings in it using Elastic Pitch. I do my editings in Sonar or Studio One most of the times, with Melodyne, or in Cubase (which is my primary DAW for production and mixing) with VariAudio, if the achievable quality is sufficient for the job. I do use Pro Tools (11/12) for mixing, occasionally, but for editing jobs I always find it a little awkward and inferior compared to my other DAWs.

Here is a video by Graham Cochrane, from RecordingRevolution, about Elastic Pitch in Pro Tools:
