[QUOTE="Brad Weber, post: 84257, member: 114"] Re: X16 Preview So you autotune the vocalists. Then you have the inverse where they don't play well because they are focusing on singing, so you use sampled backing tracks for their instruments. And along the way what happens to the 'live' performance. There definitely seems to be two basic camps; those who want live performances to sound just like the studio versions and those who want live performances to be live and thus not always the same as the studio version. To each their own but personally, if I want to hear the studio recording I can stay home and listen to it with a full fridge and clean, functional bathroom nearby. Indirectly relevant, I was recently at a venue that incorporates both a studio space and a live performance space. When it was built one of the goals was for the two to be integrated to allow recording and editing audio and video of live performances in the studio space but while there has turned out to be great interest in the studio space and good use of the performance space, there has apparently been limited interest in high quality recordings of live performances to the point that the related video production capability has been ripped out and replaced with an additional audio edit suite.
