If you use autotune as an effect, for a desired sound, fine, call it art. but to trick and pretend you could sing that way... :/

that´s what i think
People dont fail, they just give up too soon.

Auto tune is a crutch. It has it's place in mass produced shit pop/rap. It doesn't bother me because it stays in that area and I don't bother listening to any of it.

There are plenty of singers out there who sound like shit but nobody cares. Brent Hinds? Ever seen him sing live? He doesn't give a shit and it sounds fine.


People saying auto tune use is OK when used for a desired vocal effect is LOL. There are tons of other ways to change your vocals with effects. People using auto tune, even sparingly are doing it because it's...auto tune. There are much better ways to imitate Kraftwerk than use it.

And then it explooodes :D

Also wanted to post that. In my opinion this proves autotune can be some kind of art. It certainly emphasizes this scientific-ish style. Symphony of Science is pretty interesting.

You only can say if a singer is good if you hear him live.


Live performances can be (and often are) pitch corrected, and it's hard even for a trained ear to pick it out.

Rebecca Black's song Friday is a great example of what Autotune can do...

It's becoming more and more popular. It's just a fad. I'm sure it will fade away in time. Hopefully.

Good thing art is subjective. I cannot stand that shit, but hey if you enjoy it more power to you I guess.

But what makes those other effects OK? They're doing the same thing in principal - modifying your voice to sound a certain way which it couldn't otherwise sound.

People DO use auto-tune for reasons other than pitch-correction, regardless of what you might say.

Besides, most of the bands you listen to probably use it (read: do use it) without you even realising.

Autotuning "real" (and I use this term lightly) music ruins the originality. IMO, it is borderline shenanigans to pass off autotuned lyrics with synthesized backgrounds as "music". However, autotuning for the sake of autotuning, such as Bed Intruder or ATTN is just as much an art as a masterfully executed Photoshop.

To those comparing auto tune to electronica: If you have an awful voice auto tune can make you bearable to listen to. If you are bad at composing electronic music no device can help you. You still need some amount of creativity to write music.

It isn't the technology that is artistic, but the user of it. I think autotune like sticks and stones you find on the ground can be used artisticly, and to wreck havock and pain around you. Just like 3D it can be a cheap way to get people to the cinema but some use 3D to express emotion and action in a way that would almost be impossible in 2d, like avatar(say what you will of the story, in 3d it was a great experience) though many would say 3d in its essence is gimmicky nobody seriously doubts its artistic potential. Autotune only has the misfortune of being moderately enjoyable even when used poorly .
Even if you're on the right path, you're not getting anywhere if you're just sitting still.
