Like OJ looking for the real killer.
But what I was getting at was the proliferation of autotune.
1. Find good looking woman
2. ? computer magic ?
3. Profit!
There was plenty of autotune post production shenanigans and lip synching well before the 00s.. Madonna?
WWF even did an angle about it where Jeff Jarrett claimed to be a country star only to have it revealed that his roadie actually did the vocals on his hit song... Autotune wasn't as well developed but there was all kinds of fraud and effects fixing things so people who couldn't sing seemed to be singing..
Heck look at all the TV show bands who didn't play their own instruments. Partridge family The Monkeys, etc.
Lip synching is different. Don’t thing the partridge family used auto tune.

Back in the day we'd grab samples of the studio tapes and loop them a little faster or slower to tweak the pitch during an overdub. Good times!Quote:

Huge step up for beer and coffee quality.

Pitch correction has been around as an editing tool for a whileQuote:

Auto tune essentially created a generation of musicians who can’t sing, they just vomit out the lyrics in first take and let the technology make it sound good.

These would typically be 16 tracks on 1 inch analog tape, or 24 tracks on 2". At 15 inches per second, that's a lot of very expensive tape. And then mix down to stereo would require buying another 1/4" reel. Basically, you couldn't afford to have a shitty drummer, and if your singer sang out of tune, well, then that was just their style.
Other than noise gates and compressors, there weren't any effects, because all the studio's money was spent on (quality/quantity/specialty) microphones.
The big trend was to move everything to digital, and Pro Tools offered a ton of time/money saving fixes - not the least of which was eliminating tape machines. Dropped snare hit? No problem, we'll paste a sample of one in. Bad tempo? We'll change it! So lots of this stuff is good, and opened up some creative possibilities, but also paved the way for the Ashlee Simpsons.
Whelp, this is my recommended Spotify playlist right now:Quote:
