seti Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 From Wiki " It is used to disguise off-key inaccuracies and mistakes, and has allowed singers to perform apparently perfectly tuned vocal tracks without needing to sing in tune." I hate autotune. It is pure evil and must be distroyed. 1 Quote
Dennie Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Well then, we've got your Back Seti..... Remember when "Singers" could SING!!! Dennie 2 Quote
oldmako Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Remember that stupid song......MTV killed the radio or something like that??? Omniscience! Who among us did not suffer immeasureably and profusely during last years abomination of a half time performance at the Super Bowl? That was some heinous feces to be sure. Beyond heinous, God awful, shameless, miasmic, embarrasing, nonmusical, without merit except for that gals tush, thumpathumpa crapcrapcraprap. I am suddenly overcome by the need for self medication and a clean recording of something (someone) worth listening to. Quote
oldtimer Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 It's just as bad as a drum machine/rhythm box. Abominations all! Quote
Marvel Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 We've been watching America's Got Talent for the past few weeks. There's a young band, Poplyfe, that is really good, and does something different each time. And an older black guy who is a crooner (by his own admission, doing frank sinatra and dean martin), and they are both really, really good. Obviously no autotune... Bruce Quote
Rivernuggets Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 10-15 years ago you didn't see any young pop 'stars' on tour, 'cause they couldn't sing without a studio. Now, with autotune intercepting the signal from the mic to the amp, ANYONE can sing! Yes. It's evil. Did you know it has side affects if used to often? Quote
joshnich Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 The funniest best thing I have seen in years! Quote
mark1101 Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 Whatever happened to go old lip-synching? If you are going to fake it............then just be a regular old school laughing stock..........Madonna, Speers, Milli Vanilli, etc. Quote
seti Posted September 8, 2011 Author Posted September 8, 2011 I didn't mind the occasional for affect autotune but now it seems to be way overused. *barf* Quote
juniper8 Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 I agree 100% maybe we can train your robot to sing through these "GALAXY" speakers I have heard of ? Quote
RT FAN Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 There is nothing new under the sun. One of the biggest acts in the history of rock music used to keep their lead vocalist's parts recorded so that they could play them through a "Midi" when their coke addled singer couldn't come up with the goods during live performances. [^o) ]Somehow I suspect they weren't the only band to resort to such measures. Quote
thebes Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 The first and the worst. Don't get me wrong, I've always thought Cher was a babe, sure something androgynous, but a babe none-the-less. Let's face it, it was the 80's and music was seriously screwed up at the time. Quote
oldtimer Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 Thebes that was totally uncalled for. Cher peaked in the early 70's, and autotune did not exist then. I liked her before all the surgeries, maybe not her music though. Quote

Mr. Slate Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 I think I'm going to go eat some lead paint chips... Quote
oldtimer Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 Assuming you are an adult I'm afraid that it's too late for that. Maybe some nice carolina jessamine tea? Quote
boom3 Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 Do they make a waterproof model? I could use it to improve my shower singing [] Quote
