@IMelkor42 Nothing in my opinion. It might be some spit in his mouth accumulating (happens to most people). But eventually we will never know. Autotune is getting so good you don't even hear it. Listen to today's songs.
@IMelkor42 Okay, i'll tell you. Theres nothing being done to his voice. He's also singing in a diffrend key from the normal CD, and an auto-tune program can't fix that.
@Yarach I'm 99 percent sure Bobby (and I guess all the others) has autotune on his voice. Yes, he is an excellent singer, as you can hear eg in "live in amsterdam" where he has no autotune. Just compare these two concerts and you'll hear the difference
@mkaali I'm not being picky or anything but it's not autotune. Autotune is something that corrects your pitch in real time and it sounds horrible and electornic. What you mean is "voice correction" which is done in the studio when the tracks are mixed.
@paice95 No mate, it's autotune. It does sound electronic although I'm kinda liking the effect here. Autotune doesn't always have to sound bad, when used well, it has an excellent effect. They used it because one or two of the vocalists had some sort of throat infection or cold.
@mkaali there is a huge difference in performances when they are on wedges verses in ears its worse when they played smaller venues its hard to get the wedges over the stage and you cant have good pitch if you cant hear
@HalfGermanBeats93 Yeah unfortunately so, it's really obvious, there's no slides between notes, it just snaps straight to the next note! Sounds awful, I wonder how they let this go through!
The song was bettr the way it was before... I hate it when artists try & do fancy shit to their hits. It's a hit cuz of the way it sounded when it was recorded
@sxymelissannt are you mental? It sounds amazing either way, and besides, they go into original anyway so what's the problem. Do you have a problem with them playing "Birdland" in the breakdown? That wasn't the orignal breakdown anyway.
If you hate it when artists try and do fancy shit to their hits, I suggest you fuck off to your bedroom and listen to the studio version over and over until your ears bleed. Dickhead. Improvisation is what makes music great. And morons like your good self are slowly killing the music industry by not realising and appreciating this.
@npeg76. I usually don't agree with someone who blatantly insults another person with foul language, but in this one particular instance I'm gonna have to whole-heartedly agree with you. Next time, just try and get your point across "cleaner" :)
don't know if you guys noticed but his voice has always been like that, you hear it when you listen to studio versions of songs. and the singers back then could really have singed unlike today
@mandingo9999998 It's really bad after 0:48. Listen to the metallic voice. It's a real shame. And he didn't fuck it up in the firstplace I guess. It may also be that they only added autotune for the DVD.
So auto-tune can be used...sparingly? It's not all-or-nothing like that synth, robotic stuff you hear in crap pop music lately?
I have a whole truckload of effects for my guitar and keyboards so know what chorus, reverb, pitch shifting sounds like .... I just don't hear anything 'extra' on his voice at :48. Is it just being done really subtlety?
Checked out other versions on youtube with the same guy on vocals. on this vid he's hitting the notes :-) besides the orginal bass player, Lee Sklar is playing this with the most ease and confidence of others that I have seen on video.
@chatdu68 I know that it's live, but today it's easy to use audio plug-ins in a live show. Most mixing consoles are digital today (They're Computers). So nothing would be easier than using Auto-Tune or any Pitch correction while a live show. And this really sounds like Auto-Tune working on his voice.
@SynthieFreak nothin better to do than looking for marginal things. Its a great song performes ba a great band. Even if there is used technical help. SynthieFreak - sounds like just beeing able to make music only with computers.
@siebensaiter I know that it's a great band and like theire music. I just think that it´s embarrassing when a band sounds like they use these gadgets. In my oppinion those guys are great musicians, but it looses a lot of the magic the music gives.
