Are they using real-time pitch fix?
Song from a Lady Antebellum concert. Three-part harmony in places and they're album tight.
I'd like to think they're just really well-rehearsed and have their stuff together but I know real-time pitch correction exists. Whaddya think? Harmonies come in at about 2:40. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dp4GLm7sgo |

I have seen people try to use it in concert and the effects are obvious. Whaddya think? Harmonies come in at about 2:40. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dp4GLm7sgo They might just be good. It used to be a lot of performers were that good, because they had to be. On the other hand, maybe they are lipsynching in concert, which is a very, very common thing today. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." |

Though it may be that there is a bridge pickup and a hidden radio pack. -- Tciao for Now! John. |

The camera avoids angles that show it clearly,but I thought I saw a very small, discreet cable running from the endpin to under the guitar strap. It went by very quickly and could have just been a reflection or the guitar strap itself. You can hide a wireless transmitter with a guitar strap. Gad, that intro is horrible. -- Les Cargill |

The cable wraps around behind the guy, presumably to a wireless pack on his belt or guitar strap. I don't hear any obvious vocal pitch correction, which doesn't mean there isn't any, of course. If there is, it's tastefully done. The whole thing sound very well-mixed and balanced... almost too good to be true. I think this group has a lot of money behind it, so I suppose they have the best, most expensive electronic and human resources available. |

I have to wonder how many times they've performed this song since it was first released. They've had plenty of time to get beyond any electronic tuning if there ever was any IMHO. It did sound like they had a click track, though. david --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus |

Watching this it looks like it's a lip synch, they are not breathing properly to sing this... if not, apologies to the artists! |

They sound Autotuney in that there's a bit of triangle wave to 'em but people sing like that now. -- Les Cargill |

I can certainly vouch for that... My neighbor kid grew up listening to the early (bad) auto-tuned vocals. He was so constantly exposed to the dreaded artifacts that he actually learned to sing that way. To listen to him sing live with no electronics....it was eerie. I keep checking his neck to see if he had a USB port on there. The good news was, it was fairly easy for him to just drop the "undesirable artifact" part of his style and keep the "locked on pitch" so he is actually a really good singer now. --- news://freenews.netfront.net/ - complaints: --- |

A LOT of todays artists perform to pre-recorded tracks.
My experience has also been that people sing more out of tune using Out-A-Tuna than without. |

It's possible to be a eighth tone flat and sound better than you would right on top of the pitch. It's the strangest thing. Pianos might be ET but our ears are still Pythagorean. -- Les Cargill |
