In Reply to: I'm giving props to Lady Gaga... posted by RGA on September 6, 2014 at 23:21:37:
I sort of get why it's use to get a consistent package. The problem is that it seems to make artists sound the same across each individual song on their own albums but also a homogenous sound across artists.
I remember listening to Ellie Goulding's CD version of a song and then hearing her live without auto tuning and I can barely listen to the CD versions with copious amounts of autotune. But live she doesn't use it. Ellie has a unique voice (love it or hate it) but I'd rather hear it than some digitized sameness. I wish these artists would give you two CD's - with and without the processing.
Indeed, in Ellie's case I'd far rather hear pretty much every song she does with her and one instrument. I can't say she has a good voice but it's certainly well off the beaten path of mainstream singers and for whatever reason the whispy quality where it seems to be just barely holding together and about to break - manages not to.
Here is the autotune version of a Lights https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqLGuRX_nLM
No autotune version of Lights and "The Writer".

Here is Sarah McLachlan pre the invention of autotune. You're basically safe with albums purchased before 1997.
