The secret of pop stars in flawless recordings.
Auto Tune by Antares Audio Technologies is a downloadable software that can make everyone and anyone pitch perfect. It's the "Photoshop for human voice" according to a Time Magazine article.
Pop artists actually expect the music editors to run their voices in Auto Tune - like it's a natural part of the recording process. This seems like an economical solution to multiple takes on a song. Instead of recording a song or a clip of that song over and over again, people are saving time and valuable energy since it can be automatically corrected. However, these artists are also "saving effort" - there's no longer much need for being overly concerned about sounding good and sounding perfect because everybody can have a perfect pitch with Auto Tune.
From a fan's perspective, we probably wouldn't mind if you were fixing a couple of notes or so, but knowing that many artists most probably have lazy asses like the rich bastards that we know, I don't think you'd sound pretty on your own.
Did you know that Auto Tune can also do its thing in live performances? That's deception. I pay to watch and hear an artist sing and all he/she does is blabber and a box makes him/her sound good? That's not fair. That's not right. That's embarrassing.
I want to know who the real talents are and I want to know who the fakes are.
