well, my tuning capability for changing a radio station or hitting skip on the disc player or the vinyl i place on my tt isn't impaired. and if you ask anybody that knows me, it is an eclectic bunch of choices that i make.
trilok gurtu, for instance, doesn't use auto-tune (nor does kurt elling. contrary to todd's opinion) and he is prominent in my preferences of late. i also doubt that cecile mc lorin salvant uses it. ?YELLO? i dunno nor care as long as they keep doing what they do.

Follow Ups:
Kurt Elling was blasted by music critics for using Auto-Tune in later albums..... (Most performers got away with this, but apparently not Elling. His own site admits use of it- link below.) His popularity declined in recent time..... I think his problem was that his real voice was a known entity (unlike a lot of pop stars who always use Auto-Tune), and his use of enhancements was obvious to even casual listeners.
Another victim was Adele, who during her 2016 Grammys performance, the Auto-Tune cut out, revealing her actual voice on national TV..... Her popularity since that gaffe hasn't been the same either.
If you've noticed, I stopped criticizing singers for off-key singing. Several years ago. I'd rather listen to unadulterated Elling or even Streisand than anybody who's Auto-Tuned.
where was the auto tune reference?

that was really damning. it's like a scandal or something. it's funny though, i have seen him many times live and close enough to hear the voice and not speakers. never once did he come CLOSE to needing AT.
