Auto-Tune and Catherine Bott

[ardcarp]

Catherine presented a programme on Radio 4 today, Creating Pitch Perfect. All to do with some pitch correction software.

This was an excellent programme which I thoroughly recommend.

Catherine explained, played with & presented a fair objective view of the auto-tune software which is busy changing the very nature of most popular music.
I hope she's given the opportunity for more programmes of a similar nature.

Yes, an excellent programme, humorous and informative.

Yes, an excellent programme, humorous and informative.

Yes, really good. I certainly learnt much I didn't know and I thought the programme was well put together.

Agreed. Why does Radio 3 not make programmes like this?

However I thought it a shame that their Purcell arrangement of "Music for a while" was given a bog-standard background drum beat. With a bit of imagination it could have become a hit.
