The Rules

...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

Sure but the article specifically mentions autotune being a Cher first thing.

The ubiquitous robotic Auto-Tune effect? Cher did that first.

Motherfuckers never heard of a vocoder before.

Also it’s hilarious that other motherfuckers think that auto tune effect was supposed to hide imperfections in her singing and not be a blatant and intentional vocal effect.

“Believe” is a cheesy ass tune, tho

It wasn't a vocoder in Believe but they did lie and say it was initially to keep it a trade secret.
