Auto-Tune has long been the exception to that rule: Even though the pitch-correcting technology was first commonly associated with Cher’s 1998 single “Believe,” its prevalence as a practical instrument of the studio increased tenfold in the mid-2000s, from T-Pain and Lil Wayne’s liberal application of it onto their own voices to Kanye West’s Auto-Tune-tastic 808s and Heartbreak, a record that also set the stage for the following ten years of rap, R&B, and modern pop in general.Īuto-Tune’s beginnings are humbler than you think, and the subsequent post- 808s outrage over the software’s ubiquity was more ridiculous than you probably remember. Typically, the music-streaming public remains at arm’s length when it comes to tricks and tips that artists use in the recording studio - it’s too nerdy, too complicated, and only useful to obsessives and would-be artists themselves.
