yeah, I actually couldn't take it when they autotuned Lea on Glee. I think they did it because otherwise her songs wouldn't sound the same as the others, but damn.

I think once you have autotuned pointed out to you (that isn't the metallic sound, but the Glee version) you can't un-hear it.

Autotune makes everyone sound like they're singing through their nose, pretty much. I don't hate it,but a little goes a long way.

Even when it's not overdone like that, it still can be pretty obvious. It's one of the reasons I was never able to get into the show Glee. The obvious autotune made me grind my teeth.

I can see why they'd need it for Heather Morris, since she's a dancer rather than singer (that they insist on having as the lead singer in too many big production numbers). But when they use it on Lea Michelle it really pisses me off.

Why use autotune, when an older technology exists known as "lipsynch"?

I ddn't really mean to make this the Glee thread, but do they autotune the "live" performances I am going to assue that this, which is Darren Criss and Naya Rivera singing live but not at an official glee event is not autotuned? [link]

That's not autotuned.

But I think we already knew that Naya and Darren could sing.

I can't hear it, so it is sort of fascinating to me. Well, I guess it sounds like the difference between professionaly recorded and not.

How did I not know JDM was on Angel?!?

It was a fairly crappy episode, if I remember correctly.

JDM?
