Well, it depends. I think AutoTune sounds kind of obnoxious when used
as anything more than a touch-up. I respect the idea of abusing it
for a new effect. Somehow, it doesn't come out pleasing though...
::-).
It's probably just that the music I associate it with isn't the best.
I suspect it'd be a great effect paired with some things that I like -
think electronica/industrial hard rock mixes. I wouldn't be too
surprised to learn that some of the effects The Faint come up with cam
from AT.
Anyhow, just playing it straight - don't hate the effect, hate the bad
choice of the sound dude.
