Chicken Permission .....or they just prop themselves up by doing every step of prod, write, record, mix, master by themselves. some great artists today can complete most all these steps on their own, it's very impressive. But most would agree a second set of ears in the mix/master stage is ideal no matter how much experience you have. Bieber gets 3-4 world known mix engineers on each track. It's a pretty expensive process.

Sorry, my bad

Musicians from the lowest to highest levels use comping because when they are in the studio and they are about to release a recording to the world that they can't change afterward, they want to put out the best performance possible, and really, it isn't cheating if they are taking the best parts from multiple takes. It's a simple fact that a musician will play a song a little differently each time (not necessarily worse), and if the chorus sounds good on the first take, but the verse on the second is better, why not comp from both? Furthermore, spending endless hours in the studio trying to get a single, perfect take with zero mistakes and no comping is unrealistic, not to mention exhausting on the musician and expensive, as studio time costs money. For example, Adele uses comping in the studio to get the best of each take for a song, but live she just sings; of course it isn't perfect, but in a live setting people go to see her and to hear her "raw" voice.

@@MbuluTani That´s exactly my sentiment. I for one invested quite a couple bucks so my Stream even comes close to what I hear when I just sit in a room and sing, as postprocessing has become so wild, that even simple "Uploads" to Platforms like Twitch and Smule have LOADS of processing added, in order to conform your audio to their "needs". Then again, unless you are already a top tier streamer, audiences expect to hear that "dead sound" of completely compressed, EQ´d and loudness. They are "crazy" surprised, when they find out, I´ve eliminated the majority of the processing through, you guessed it, processing. Still it´s an uphill battle and it is so much easier to just comp my stuff and run it through fifty instances of Melodyne, Nectar, Ozone and Sugar... Instead of doing what gave me the nickname "The One-Take Assassin".

It has become another effect just like reverb, delay, compression, etc. Everyone uses it these days... no exceptions. I have no problem with it either as long as the singer can deliver a solid live performance.

I Hate it when people say "anyone can be a pop star with auto tune." Because as someone who produces muisc myself I know Its simply not true. Sure you can take a fairly average singer in the studio and with enough hours of head ach, tuning and voice comping you have something that sounds okay. BUT you're failing to see the major elephant(s) in the room. Number one is tone, sure you made the timing and pitch correct but her tone is still very hard to listen to. The second is branding a overly edited vocal is a nightmare to brand how are you sposed to market a unpredictable unreal vocal sound. They never be capable of a truly live performance. And before you point to pop artist that use auto tune and say they did it. You must understand artist like Taylor swift have good tone and natural talents. They use these effect as an artistic choice and there career would still exist without them.

I agree there's more to it than being able to be listenable in a studio recording. Personally, I think Louise's tone is pretty nice, reminiscent of Carly Rae Jepsen as many have pointed out. I've also gotten many requests for the full song (Which does not exist, so stop asking haha). There are a couple of popular singers who I think have questionable vocal tone, but that's all subjective until you get to the really far end of the spectrum. I'd say most people can produce a passable vocal tone in the studio, given you record in an easy registry. Funnily enough, low registry singing has been very popular over the last year or so in pop, so this year would have been easier than most. Where modern artists would be without studio help, we can just speculate about. Some artists would still be huge stars (Adele, Ed Sheeran etc are good examples) some others, maybe not.

While many overproduced artists are real artists, that is exactly what i dont get: some of them are real singers, great singers, they practice and learn everyday too. So why those production tools? The reason is chart competition, not art. There was a time not long ago when artists didnt have such and the records sound great. Even "bad" singers like Kurt Cobain recorded his tracks in few takes and they sound just perfect. I think a singer must cope with his/her own voice for the bad and the good. There are still people out there who still believe in their voice. Another thing i still dont get is why punk rock bands have been abusing autotune so far the last years. Punk rock! I dont get it.

My experience playing around with autotune is that if you can't sing in the first place then you can only do robot vocals. It's still better to fix the audio than hear a straight off-key vocal but it won't add the tone of a real singer to someone who only sounds ok when they sing along with the studio track. Would I use it? Yes, I'm not a real singer so I'd have to. If I wanted something more natural though I'd then sing along to the auto-tuned track, using it as a guide to stay on key. Again though, a real singer's throwaway takes are going to sound better than my tuned yelling.

As a hard rock guitar player, I really don't look down on autotune as a bad thing. In some of my recordings, I admittedly needed to used cut, copy, and paste in order to fix some of my minor mess-ups here and there. But here's the catch, I can play my stuff live. Therefore, as long as the singer can belt it out live and it sounds just as good, then I am cool with it. However, if you need to rely on autotune, pre-recorded tracks, or lipsyncing for a live performance, well...you might just be in the wrong profession altogether.

maybe it's a business decision, like Louise, the studio can turn her around in far shorter time than keep doing retakes.

What I notice about that mix is that none of those notes are really out of her reach; her voice just needs to strengthen and mature, and she could probably do it herself. Natural singers with perfect pitch are the people to listen to to get the singing bug, Louise. Also heard Bieber's demo without autotune, and wasn't bad, particularly for a kid. Maybe Autotune is a a way of saving listener's ears, but let's face it - It's still a hell of a lot of trouble to get a note that should be there in the first place.

Autotune is a good thing... as long as you dont notice it. Once you can hear a song has autotune its shit

Even the songs you like that aren't 'pop' I can almost guarantee have some kind of light pitch correction going on. It's just the industry standard now and it doesn't necessarily mean the artist can't sing.

I think that depends on what stage the singer is at in their career and what kind of management, label, and contract they're under. Some of the more seasoned artists probably have more control in the producers they work with and how they produce the song. Other than that, I agree with you :)

Nice video young man. You are very talented. Wish I had you in my studio for a weekend of remodeling.

This is a great video.. Well done. When you mention vocal comping, normal people don't realize how much you actually know about sound production. Also, the way you sped through the video to get to the point of the video instead of dragging it on and on just to get more time watched for monetization is appreciated.

Nice job - even the Beatles explored with all the possibilities they had - speeding up, slowing down, backwards tracking, duplicating voices and took their voices to the tech limits of their day

The people who make it are there because people keep listening to them though. You just gotta keep listening and doing what you want, and surround yourself with those kinds of people. I don't feel like we should restrict the music industry, people should be able to do whatever they want as long as they're not hurting anybody. And as long as nobody is forcing you to listen to someones music, you aren't really getting hurt. :)

shit music is going to be around no matter what, it’s not autotune’s fault. besides, not all of songwriting is in performance, what if you’re an amazing songwriter but can’t sing worth a damn? it boils down to more than “auto tune bad 😡”

Here I am, sitting here, a professional Opera singer. I almost exclusively perform live, sing without a mic to 2000+ seat theaters over a full orchestra, with the expectation that I be heard clearly, perfectly in tune, without missing a single note, word or rhythm, in a foreign language, night after night, for pennies compared to some douchenozzle with a studio and marketing team behind them, faking their voice and selling their image. The music industry is quite literally the furthest thing from a meritocracy.

@brandonthemuso8238

While that's very commendable, you're right - the music industry isn't fair by any means. You've got to come to terms with that though. If you wanna do Opera, then you've gotta accept the fact that you probably won't be as rich as most pop idols and you won't get as much recognition as them even though you deserve far more.

Hmm I think of it as a little closer to an autocracy, seeing as pop stars are created by the suits and then their music is, at the risk of sounding dramatic, shoved down the public's throat. Songs make it on the Top 40 because they are promoted like crazy and are straight-up hard to avoid. But this does still turn some people into fans just due to probability when dealing with such a large public. These fans tend to be people who listen to music for some light fun instead of a deeper experience. Now let's all do SHOTS!!!

Sound engineers have been “cheating” for decades. If tuning and adding effects is cheating then I cheat every time I play guitar. One thing you can’t fake is a good song. You can fake the performance but if the song sucks nothing will help.

@davids4003

Effects (overdrive, tremolo, noise gates, etc) ≠ autotune. Autotune would be taking my guitar that's physically tuned to Eb A D# Eb Bb F and correcting the output using software to make it sound like it was physically tuned to E A D G B E (Standard tuning).

Of course it's cheating. It allows people with no actual musical ability to pretend that they have some. It enables studios to choose "stars" based upon their looks and persona for easy packaging to the tasteless masses.

Honestly, there is nothing wrong with slight pitch correction. Artists who use it in massive amounts are a little meh to me....But if you are adjusting certain notes that are flat by 10-15% pitch correction, I wouldn't call that cheating. I use it every now and then on my recordings, but I try to go for the best possible take I can throw out and then do post EQ'ing/slight pitch correction. If you can replicate it live to the point of where people say it sounds good like the song on the album, then you're in the clear. There is a limit with pitch correction where it starts to sound robotic (Usually around 40-50%). That's the range of pitch correction that always makes me cringe haha.

Mat Broomfield you're so simple, you need to be somewhat accurate to for the autotune to not sound like shit. It comes down to the fact you probbably listen to metal or rock and think your singers have skill, I'll tell you autotune is probbably the most prominent in heavy metal you pleb, as for the drumming in that shit, teach a 5 year old to bang out the double kick as fast as you can and bam u got a beat..

This video is so informative to me thank you so much!
