I thought this might be interesting for all the musicians here...<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="560" height="340" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/fYzv-AVi78E&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="340" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/fYzv-AVi78E&hl=en_US&fs=1&" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>

God I hate AUTOTUNE. And Kanye. And most other people that think it adds something to their music.

It sounds like ASS. And not good ASS.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great promotion for Autotune.

I only use this plugin on out of tune background vocals on occasion, on tracks that were sent to me to mix and master. It sounds artificial on lead vocals. I´ve never used it on any of my own productions, because all my singers can sing. (Example; Ingrid Athur on "Love Is The Key", or Janisha on "Don´t Stop&quot

Lotta vocals on those tracks, but no Autotune.

Not even on the background vocals. Good singers don´t need Autotune. But, I will confess that I´m not a great singer, and I have used it for some demo tracks, so that the singers could get an idea of the vocal melody I wanted on the song. But none of those tracks are online, and are strictly for demo purposes. Though, maybe I could be the next T-Pain with Autotune?

LOL
Loved the video.

Thanks for the laughs.

I agree with Mike...I WOULD NEVER use it. It's just not natural or tasefully done. When Real vocals get the back seat to automation..then the music industry has an issue.

Man..this is way funny..but ultimately tragic...Frank Sinatra would turn over in his grave if he heard an auto-tuned song....he was into auto-cues in the end though

The most over-used and useless plug-in for any musician. Just my opinion. Cool video, though.

I am patiently waiting for this effect fad to die...the sooner the better.
