PITCH****! that has a seriously great ring to it... HA, get it.?. ring? all i'm saying is that engineers in EVERY genre, aside from ultra pop, need ought not to tune because a competant live performance is absolutely crucial.

as far as i know, auto tuning a live performance with recalled parameters developed durring the tracking therof, is not practical enough to be widely implemented. the cost of doing this would be insurmountable for most bands, but certainly not for top-tier major acts.

the only way the time domain automation could work is if the ENTIRE band is slaved to a click, after that, it seems like a nightmare to implement. is this where we are moving towards?

this is obviously better than dubed lipsync but is it THAT much better that it should be acceptable among the performers? if they say no to their managers and producers, are they really that susceptable to being dropped? am i really that naive?
