these vocals are akin to those of modern melodic metalcore.



What a dumb thing to say.

I've worked with Auto-tune and Vocoder in the past. Personally, I don't hear it here but it is possible it's there. I know Ashe is talented, so I have no issue with him using it as a supplement.



I understand what you're saying though Climactic. When I listen to certain records, I'll have this issue that will just sit in the back of my mind. Every time it happens or I think about it, it prevents me from enjoying a record to it's fullest.

Takes a big man to admit he's wrong on the internet

Auto tune is mostly used to correct the tiniest of mistakes in vocals, as it changes off notes to the nearest semitone in any particular scale (including chromatics).
So if your vocalist is even the slightest bit flat (which is likely, because no one is a perfect singer), the sound engineer will use auto tune to pitch shift it to the right note.

Yes that is what auto-tune does. It is also program plugin that is not required to be used.

Many producers and artists choose not to use it because of the negative attention it gets.

Pssshhh. C'mon Lloyd. Stop trying to pass off your real world experience as "knowledge". That's not how the internet works brah.

There's many more producers and artists that do use it than don't.

@Sitar



I did live sound and produced a handful of (shitty)bands over a two year period. I can send

you some of my material if you don't believe me. I'm not claiming I'm an expert sound engineer, but

I certainly know how auto-tune works.

In music that receives major radio play you are correct. In many other genres it's barely used. When

it is, it's very subtle.



Regardless, your original claim was that ALL music since the late 90s had auto-tune. That is flat

out incorrect.

We all know how autotune works NonApp. But your experience and Lloyd's conflict. He's not saying that autotune is

being used all over the entire album, but only subtly in strategic places to correct certain notes. He thinks he hears

autotune on the vocals here and you're disclaiming that. However, judging by how layered and prone to overproduction

(not a bad thing in my book) the band is, I'm inclined to agree that autotune is present to make sure that Ashe's vocals

are spot on. Djent is generally heavily reliant on digital manipulation to get the sound they're looking for, why would

vocals be any different?



Edit: Shit, my bad, I was following the wrong argument. I guess the same argument applies to any professionally

produced piece of music.

okay my point is

unless you're listening to some random garage band that has 100 fans on facebook or the album/demo/whatever wasn't made with an even somewhat slightly professional engineer (which neither apply to this band), chances are it has auto tune.

Regardless, your original claim was that ALL music since the late 90s had auto-tune. That is flat
out incorrect.
