Erin Johnson, a junior in music, said, “Almost any music on the radio or made somewhat recently uses auto-tune, so pretty frequently.” One of the bigger trends is musicians using auto-tune to fully change how they sound in select songs. Roecker also agrees, saying, “I think auto-tune is a good tool to have, but it’s getting to a point where auto-tune is doing more work than the artist.” Roecker said, “I don’t typically judge artists on their use of auto-tune unless you can very clearly hear the auto-tune in the music.” So this makes you wonder, what leads to artists using auto-tune?
