Someone like Prince could steal from a musical "guest" who is not under his employ in this manner. Example: Steve Vai comes in, fucks around in the studio and hits a cool ass guitar riff. Prince records everything, changes a couple of notes - its not Steve's riff anymore. Prince says "Mike Scott played it". Vai says "I played it". In court, it gets ugly. That was an off the top of the dome example but there can be many scenerios. You could have the same case without Melodyne though.. other supporting evidence would have to support the arguments. Of course you can but the software makes it easier for that kind of theft. | |

yo when this shit drop heard Fall 2008.That's what auto tune does. People could perfectly tune their songs before. People used to fix any out of tune parts (and still do). Its just a tool that makes it easier. | |

BlaqueKnight said: Its funny because when the multi-track recorders became popular, the same "cheating" argument was made.
Les Paul proved out of the box that you'd still have to be a damned good cheater to benefit from that equipment. Totally true that it's faster to replay than edit. But that assumes "the talent" could play in the first place.

Like I said,"...if the computer was the main instrument used, then that person plays the computer as their instrument." I'll be taking a nice, long break from the org from this drum being banged one too many times. It's been real.
BlaqueKnight said: Well, before we get all philosophical (too late?), there is still a fact that remains to be dealt with. Learning to play an instrument, a PHYSICAL instrument, builds motor skills, hand-eye cordination and stimulates a part of the brain that using a computer does not. In this day and age, lots of music is made on computers but computers have been a crutch in the industry as well. Software like DNA is more of a tool than it is an instrument. As a matter of fact, its NOT an instrument at all. I don't have it but I assume its plug-in for recording systems or stand-alone editing software independent of Melodyne. Either way, its not going to change anything that much.
Now the area in which I can foresee a problem would be when someone has someone to play a part(s) in a song, changes notes in what they played and writes them out of the song altogether. That could get ugly until someone addresses it in court. [Edited 3/17/08 16:39pm] | |
