RE: You know what?

"David Smith happens to be a talented, well trained, experienced professional musician."

I have no opinion of him as a musician.... (With his attitude, I wouldn't be interested in his music. Even if it might otherwise be good.) But as a listener, he doesn't impress me at all.

"As is Rick_W. As is vinylphanatic. As are a number of other posters at AA."

Why are you bringing others into this?

"Feel free to disagree with them, as I sometimes do on certain issues, but their failure to agree with you is not cause for you to insult them or challenge their integrity."

It's about time David Smith's integrity was challenged.

The problem isn't even disagreement. The problem is whenever someone brings up Auto-Tune (it doesn't matter if it's me or someone else), he goes after them as if he wants them silenced.

"It really lowers the standards of this forum and discourages them from contributing."

Do you think the response to my Beethoven First Concerto post raises them? Who are you do judge?

"Are there pop stars who use auto tune to hide poor intonation? Maybe so. But competition in the music business is so intense, it would be very hard for anyone who can't sing in tune to get by, no matter how heavily processed the final product is."

We'll live in disagreement here.... If the singers can sing, what's the point in Auto-Tuning them??

I think half the problem is the producers believing the consumers won't notice it. This is why some recent remastered recordings of Frank Sinatra and other legendary singers have had it applied. But what you people cannot accept is the notion that the consumers not only notice it, but think it's an absolute abomination.
