I'd like to play around with an auto-tune one day, seems like a bit of fun.

I'm going to do some collaborations with different singers eventually before I possibly get around to learning to sing myself.

Meatplow 06-08-2009 07:10 AM

I spent about a week teaching myself how to use auto-tune, it's a lot more complicated then people give it credit for. At the very least, the performer has to sing *mostly* in key then it's all hassling around with scales and cents.

Other you can make that silly T-Pain effect with no bother.

gaslight 06-08-2009 07:23 AM

Singers who can't sing in key are terrible.

I was in studio once with an engineer after doing some tracks for a singer and someone asks him "...you can autotune this right?" and the engineer sort of squeezes the bridge of his noses and goes "well, you have to be at least close in the first place".

Haha.

I quite like the artificial autotune when that's the sound people are after, like Autotune The News or whatever. Real singers should be able to hit their notes though, otherwise it's just a bad performance. All hinges on intent really.

EDIT: He only had one nose.

I've been trying to do that extreme autotune lately but can't figure it out. I have managed to vocode through the guitar.
By the way, did I tell anyone I got a new guitar?
Same as this one [img]http://profile.ultimate-guitar.com/profile_mojo_data/6/8/8/7/688747/pics/_c520397_image_0.jpg[/img]
A friend reckons I should put a 5 on the end of the headstock

gaslight 06-08-2009 05:14 PM

That kind of autotune is more done by pitch shifting an audio signal through a keyboard controller or similar than my individually tweaking notes. Check out the vids of the Electro Harmonix Voicebox unit.

That's a pretty sleek looking guitar.

horseypie 06-08-2009 05:44 PM

sup dudes
waiting at work for one of the engineers to come and tell me what i need to do next :( surfing the net makes me feel heaps slack atm

gaslight 06-08-2009 05:50 PM

Not much man been up all night, I don't think I get tired like a normal person anymore. I can get away with it today because Tuesday isn't a work night. I've had very few shifts and rehearsals lately and those are the only things that keep me to a schedule. I'll run a few errands later, money and guitar related.

horseypie 06-08-2009 06:44 PM

lol
makes you sound like youre a mob worker or something

RunAmokRampant 06-08-2009 08:28 PM

The dude from Cynic uses autotune right? I think it's quite effective.

And I love South Park's Kanye West parody that overuses the autotune. Gold.

I'm more a player than a game-watcher. I get angry and yell at the TV if I watch a game, even when alone. That's why I don't talk about it all that much. I can't wait to go back to playing though.

I'm training for it at the moment. Trying to get a balance of bulk, speed and low body-fat is hard. Aim is to be 92kg, but 7% body-fat. When you're 6'0" it's hard to still have speed when you're bigger. Speaking of which, I'm going to go swim 2km at lunch.

ps. I'm dropping fat pretty quickly now I've stopped drinking alcohol. Today is Day-18.

Nay, that's vocoding, aka "the Daft Punk effect". There was no autotune back when Cynic first did it.
