yea he doesnt use it on EVERY song cuz if u listen on his albums he does have rap songs on their when hes rapping WITHOUT auto-tune or singing nd even in CONCERT he doesnt use auto-tune alot.
zap and roger used the talkbox and that is way harder to use than autotune.. I'm getting sick and tired of hearing EVERY SONG on the radio autotuned! I was thinking about it tho, and every single rock song has a distortion guitar too! soo.. maybe it's ok.. I dont know.. but like he said it takes away the soul and the essence of a good singer, so maybe autotune will help people appreciate REAL singers more! I dont think we can predict the future of autotune, we just have to witness it..
No, to use it WELL, UNIQUELY, and CREATIVELY, it takes skill. To get a sound you TRULY want, you still have to be able to sing whilst using Auto-Tune.
Consider the genre of popular music as an administered culture of capitalist industry. Whether most people care to admit this or not, popular music is designed to be repetitive and shallow in form. An objective formal analysis of its structure reveals this point.
The culture industry that administers popular music does not introduce us to the unique or creative, it simply strives to imitate them by offering the smallest possible variations of an already-passed successful art object.
Dittoin other words a faster way to make more money quickly w/o putting the work in needed.Personally I once was able to say that's going to be a legend or good artist, by distinctive voices & creative lyrics expressing relative truths or good fun in R & B and Rap especially but now the majority sound so packaged it's like if you heard one song you've heard them all. Amer was the center of innovative music in the world at 1 time, I bet we have storms we'll never hear.Die auto tune Die,Peace
I don't know about that, but what i do know is that T-Pain made a lot of nice songs... I don't think everybody can make a nice song, just by using Auto-tune or Talkbox or Vocoder. Plus, i don't understand why so many people are hatin' on T-Pain. If he really can't sing, than i give him even more props for having so much succes... Like 2pac said: "I got a lotta love for any brother making money"...
Slim has a distinct voice and really hit home with this....but like Jay-Z said, "men lie...women lie, the numbers don't".....some record executive is in the artist's ear screaming...We need a record with the autotune now...let's get these numbers up dammit! (LOL)
Yall sound stupid... the vocoder has been around way before T-Pain got a hold of it. Like California Love, and Computer Love weren't smashes. Niggas need to be paying him their respects!
the first time i heard autotune was cher and madonna but t-pain has made it really popular, i like autotone but it starts to get a bit annoying when everybody starts using it and not just using it but doing their entire album in autotune
t-pain can sing hes has a voice in now that im a producer from germany and i ved worked with antares autotune just give the effekt you need a basic vocie
anyone can work with autotune, the fact that you have a copy dont mean that you know shit about it. it was first designed (and still designed for) singers who cant hit the right note. t pain cant sing. he started using autotune because he sounds like shit when he tries to sing for real. its an out, not an effect for these clowns.
Does anybody know what settings to set auto-tune to in order to get a smooth effect, like slim himself uses in 112's 'what if' song. all help would be appreciated thnx
I love his voice,but seriously....,does he have a speech impedement? WTF He's right,it's the cherry on the top though,turn it up to 25-30 and that's it,it's only if u use it a bit 4 it to be cool and un-noticable like the whole industry has always did,technicians even do it without artists consent sometimes. However T-Pain turns it up on Max and that's y it got such a bad rep.
have you heard t-pain recently??? nigga hardly use auto tune, you listen to im sprung to freeze and you'll see a big difference, he dont even use it in concert and he still good
Yea i did,i got the whole album,Freeze is a little subtleler. Howeva, on some otha songs on the album like the other 2 singles "Chopped & Screwed" & Heavily on "Can't Beleive It"(even the talking at the beginning,lol). It's an upgrade definitely,i ain't see he can't sing,he proved me he could at the B.E .T. Awards during the end of last year.he's aight live. SPeaking on Freeze,they turn it off then turn the autotune back on 4 certain parts,like when they sing the high note of "Freeze!....."
you guys all sound stupid.roger didn't use the same thing t-pain uses. roger played the notes he through a keyboard. t-pain uses a plugin that corrects his voice. and he wasn't the first to use it. but he was the first to use it on every song. artists everywhere use it to tune up their vocals but they don't use the same settings. cher technincally was one of the first people to use it if you want to get technical.
EXACTLY. Roger troutman, teddy riley and them were not using AUTOTUNE for their vocals. Autotune isn't even for that, its for PITCH CORRECTION. And the first person to use it like T-pain is using it was Cher on "believe", then followed Kid Rock on "Only God Knows Why"
This guy has a point about technology and vocals, however T-Pain and Kanye are music producers. Besides them singing and having their voices digitalize, they DO actually make their own background music. Synths, drum machines, all that shit.
Technically I think it's ok that some musicians use it, but if you can't sing at all completely and just using the effect to get money (also not making the music), than this is an issue for the music industry.
why dont everybody just come on out and say they hatin on kanye west it dont matter because every thing kanye do is gone go platinum so fuck yall hatas because if you didnt know kanye used the auto tune on his first album and that was way before t pain came out so fuck it all haters anybody can do wat the fuck they want it aint like t pain started this shit cus he didnt
Wow, where your anger coming from. We don't have to be geniuses to know Kanye West is over-rated, we don't need to be geniuses to know T-Pain can't sing and that lil wayne is burnt out. Do you even know who Zapp and Roger is? Go take a nap and calm down, besides no one said anything about Kanye in this video.
yeh but kanye rapped so it doesnt matter if he used it, its when singers use it like t pain whose talent is supposed to be there voice when it starts getting bad, or like kanye using it through his whoooolleee ne album EVERY SONG argghhh
