in other words: if it must be there, over-use it to apocalyptic proportions. It becomes surreal. But in the context of western pop music, the perpetrators must be strung up and fed to termites.

So what is autotune, really? A rackmount FX unit? Stomp-box? Some physical hardware, or a pc plugin thing? Can it be abused further? Taken off-the-map into glitch/noise territory? Just curious.

@Rev Turnip Druid: TG Gondard has been using one live for vocals, the good thing is that it doesn't work as intended in a noisish set. It can be a fun effect
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:13am

I've never seen a stompbox autotune--usually it's a plug in...I think there are some rackmounts available. But put that shit in a stompbox and put a patent on that, and watch the $ flow in.

When I see a playlist song already yellow-starred, meaning I starred it a prior time it was played, that's gotta be the FMU equivalent of "heavy request"/"heavy rotation" -- 20 people have already faved that track, and I know I've heard it at least three or four times already...
