brad and i got into a huge conversation (we weren't arguing) about autotune being the downfall of talented singers and thus promoting the labels to look less for talent and more for looks.
brad's point was that autotune is merely a tool that is being abused. my point (and an admittedly extreme view to keep conversation going) was that the existence of autotune itself actually promotes abuse.
personally, i think brad is totally right. we have tools that we use to make records sound a certain way as filtered through our own ears and brain.
the grid is not bad......neither is beat detective, or sound replacer/app trigga
it's the abuse, or mis-use of these things that have led to where we are now.
rattleyour, why are you comping in PT like that.
there is a much easier way to do it.
in the edit window next to each track name is an arrow. click and hold on that, and select "new track", name the new track the same title and the take number. keep doing that for each new pass you do.
when you are ready to comp. make a new track called "guitar solo comp"
when you go to say take 1 you can grab what you want, when you move back to the comp track your selection (highlighted area) stays identical, you just hit apple v and it's exactly in the same place you had it before.
comp away, it's a brilliant and easy way to keep the edit window less jumbled, and fast for comping.
