A vocal performance is a series of notes in different pitches. When holding a long note (word) that isn't supposed to change pitch, it should stay relatively around the middle of the key. If it stays in the middle then sharply goes up or down near the end of the note, that's when you hear an obvious off-key break.
When we edit pitch, we can bend the end of the note so it stays near the middle. Now it's perfectly in tune. We can also increase or decrease vibrato.
Sometimes singers run out of breath at the end of a line and those words are weaker, or sometimes a singer can't belt out certain words. In this case we can make the words 3-4db louder during vocal editing. We also cut down the volume on breaths that are too loud. We de's vocals too and can add effects.
When submitting a track, we need only the vocal track, no music. You can't edit vocals with music playing along with it.
I like to say it moves everyone up one grade. In some cases a grade and a half. If you give a "C" performance, adjusting pitch and vibrato can make it a "B" maybe "B+." The most important thing you must have is good time and some feeling in your vocals. Pitch and vibrato correction can do the rest.
