CoolRanchDressing Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 What the fuck? Is he deaf? He's obviously never heard the album. You could have put him in his place even more if you'd wanted to. But good thing it was Christmas. If he'd said ignorant shit like that to me, he wouldn't have been so lucky. Jesus or not.

Jesus or not.yea exactly. it didnt even make any sense. he's clearly making it up completely for god knows what fucking reason. i was like axl sounds as good as he's ever sounded. you can call it over-produced, with a bunch of guys who have nothing to do with guns n roses if you want, but dont talk shit about the way axl sounds.

dalsh327 Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 He'd prob. say Axl uses auto tune at the concerts, too. I don't care what other people listen to, esp. if I don't have to sit in their car and be forced to listen to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweersa Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I'm sure Axl did. Most if not all artists do. Just read the booklet for CD, it's all there. A lot of people hear autotune and think of Kanye West type singing which is intentionally overdone to have that odd sound. Proper use of autotune just makes the vocals more clear, which is more than likely the case here on Chinese. Listen to the multitracks. Just one of many tricks used in the studio.

A lot of people associate auto-tune with the kanya, hip-hop sound that it's most known for. But pretty much every professionally recorded album uses it to some degree. The vast majority of producers and engineers use it to ensure vocal consistency and accurate pitch control. So in a way, the original poster is wrong.

Georgy Zhukov Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I wouldn't say the whole album. Maybe parts of a song or two. Auto tune was never meant to be used all the time. Just for corrections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talk about a total pwn. That's actually better than losing your cool and slapping someone around. The best part would be watching the faces of everyone around you.
