I think they are ok but artists should not overuse them. I look forward to reading more from you in the future.

Frank Zappa used a harmonizer to get that octave-lower voice that tracked his own. I love that sound.

Although, I don't agree with it. Also, it's easier to sell a person that looks hot and sings a bit flat than if someone is not as great looking but nails the vocals. Susan Boyle is the exception.

In my opinion, any artist that needs a machine to make their voice sound good should not be singing. There are plenty of amazing singers out there who do not need any technological assistance, but who sadly the record companies don't give a second thought to :( Warning: arsort() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in /home/sykesa/kimkinrade.com/blog/wp-content/plugins/wp-affiliate-pro.php(241) : eval()'d code(1) : eval()'d code(1) : eval()'d code on line 762
