Xfactor using Autotune on vocal microphones, to make them sound like they can actually sing in tune.

Glad it wasn't just me that picked up on it! My missus thought I was nuts!

Start as you mean to go on I suppose...

Neodite · 22 Aug 2010 at 07:36

Well they have to make some of them sound decent

Makes me laff when you hear them singing live after and they sound terrible

Stuff like xfactor is more about the person than the singing anyway, whoever is most popular wins, not the best voice.

I do enjoy watching the terrible ones tho

Even more so when they bring loads of family, why didn't one of them tell them the truth? lol

I thought it was just me. The fat girl had auto tune as did the crazy release me woman.

Any others?

Peter_C · 22 Aug 2010 at 09:06

Well, I said it as a joke just when the release me woman was singing, but I thought it was just her crazy voice

Neodite · 22 Aug 2010 at 09:07

The bloke that did the r kelly song i think it was

The way she was singing (If you can call it that) made it more obvious that they was using it

Ahh, so that's why they all sound good in the opening rounds and sound utter rubbish when they hit boot camp, always wondered why that was.

That ''release me'' woman was nuts.

I don't think so. I've not noticed it before this season. And autotune doesn't even make people sound good but I guess that's just a matter of opinion. Autotune won't help the good singers anyway.

Where did this national obsession with karaoke come from anyway?

MarcD3832 · 22 Aug 2010 at 10:24

I thought i was going crazy when i heard the release me woman..

Far east.

If yuo watch that utter, utter tat then you deserve anything you get.

Von Smallhausen · 22 Aug 2010 at 12:06

Thankfully, I didn't watch it.

I actually do despise the show and the manuafactured detritus that inevitably pollutes the music scene.

Danni Monogue as a judge on a talent show ?????? She has little of her own to start with.

Geri Halliwell as a stand in judge on a talent show ?????????????????????? She has non whatsoever.
