(Dagbladet): When the previous season of “The Voice” rolled over TV 2 screens in 2013, revealed Dagbladet that used autotune in lydetterarbeidet to “The Voice”.
Auto Tune is a computer tool that can be used to correct impure tones, so it sounds like the singer sings perfectly clean.
When singing competition starts up again on TV2 tonight is autotune still in use.
– It is done in the same year as the previous season. In those cases autotune used, only small adjustments. A little sour tone here and there. This is because it will be a nice viewing experience, says “The Voice” -pressekontakt Katrine Wergeland Dagbladet.
Alone with autotune
It’s the sound that goes out to viewers that singing voices manipulated.
– The mentors hear participants just as they are during recording. We do nothing with the overall level participants, says Wergeland.
Dagbladet are told that none of the other competing song reality concepts – ‘Idol,’ ‘X Factor’ and NRK “Star Game” – using autotune.
– Should be fair
“Star Game” soundtrack producer Christian Mein Seth says that they simply do not need autotune in lydetterarbeidet.
– Participants are professional and highly skilled artists. In “Star Game” there is no financial prize or record contract to the winner, but to be fair, says producer.
“The Voice” does not use autotune in the live finale rounds, just in the preliminary rounds taken up beforehand. In “Star Game” filmed participants often while practicing against Saturday nights, which are sent as small touches.
– Using auto tune when artists lions would seemed counterproductive for us to want to show viewers the development participants from they are in the practice room until they stand on stage, telling Mein Seth.
“The Voice” -pressekontakt Katrine Wergeland will not answer direct questions about why “The Voice”, which markets itself as the pursuit of Norway’s best voice, use autotune when the other competitors do not.
“What is the point?”
In other countries it is used autotune in “The Voice” -lydetterarbeidet.
In 2010, wrote the British The Guardian: “We know that we can not rely on the reality show, but if we can not trust that we will hear participants unvarnished voices in a song competition, what is the point?”
– How can one trust that you get to see the participants’ right level in the preliminary rounds?
– There are only talking about tiny adjustments, viewers will certainly experience the participants votes as they are, says Wergeland.
Music program “Beat for Beat” on NRK 1, which is a pure entertainment program without any big winner at the end of the season, also uses autotune.
It confirms producer Christian Finnskog.
– A pitch correction autotune are tools that are more or less standard in modern music production – also on TV. In “Beat Beat” is used to adjust the individual vocal related imperfections. But since the participants in the “Beat for Beat” can sing perfectly well, it is limited how much we need to use it. We look at autotune as a tool in the mix, just like reverb, says Finnskog.
