What is this and why does it trigger people so much?
>>130189210It takes away the skill and makes everything sound dead and sterile. Also reinforces the "fix it in post" attitude.Countering that, you might say that since all instruments are either digital or tuned to perfect A = 440 Hz ET, why not achieve the same level of perfection with vocals?
>>130189210It's because uh Rawk never used such a thing in the 70s duh
A lot of the time its used in a tastelessand overdone way
>>130189210The reaction depends on whether it's used as a stealthy pitch correction tool or as an obvious artistic effect.
Autotune is craftsmanship compared to AI slop
>>130189210Nobody cares anymore since people eventually got used to it as a stylistic tool, but boomers had a hateboner for it because of its perceived inauthenticity (even though they had no problem with talkboxes or vocoders).
>>130189210its for people who cant sing
>>130189353That wasn't the case until recently. People absolutely bitched up a storm when Cher did it for artistic effect and bitched even louder when T-Pain and Kanye did it. But in time everyone got used to it. Nowadays I'm not even sure anyone still cares if it's used for pitch correction.
>>130189210it sounds all the same and it also means you never learned to sing or hold a note with your voice for more than 2 seconds.
>>130189210Only Daft Punk used it well >>130189501Vocoder and autotune are not really comparable
>>130189210It's that throat punching effect in songs.
>>130189566>Vocoder and autotune are not really comparableIronically, Daft Punk used a vintage Sennheiser vocoder from the '70s to achieve their sound. The fact that you confused it with autotune says otherwise.
>>130189210Kanye West's auto tune is the most annoying one, he is bad at singing
