Ye 4-5000 deke singer bnne wale h aajkl wahi use krte h bhr bhr ke , aur gaane bhi waise hi hote h do kaudi ke..
@@abhishekamar2697 I'm only talking about the cringe singers(which is majority). btw I'm not spreading hatred against any community.
@@abhishekamar2697Ngl brotha u really have a good taste in music I'll give u that ps hamare bhojpuri singers se jyaada to ye punjabi singers autotune use krte h moreover most of the Hollywood singers especially the female singers they use hella autotune in their songs albeit inlogon ko kon samjhaye ye to bass stereotypical ideology se deluded h that bhojpuri singers are incarnation of autotune.
This explains why singers like Lata Mangeshkar and Mohd Rafi were different from others. They use to sing emotionally as well as technically perfect, and that too in one take ie without cuts.
Because of Muslim singers and actors in Bollywood it become urduwood, They bluntly & intentionally use Persian language for rhythms it's only pathetic and absurd. Don't respect a language Hindi is a different language mixing Persian with it will end it's soul. There is Urdu language for that, if u like Urdu just say it's Urdu movie don't lie that it's Hindi. Because of so much Persian pollutants I stopped watching urduwood movies & dubbed movies. I love Bahubali dubbing because it used real Hindi language. Now South dubbing is also corrupted. Better watch foreign movies or series with pure English subtitles atleast.
whom are u refrreing ur reply to?@@Indian_Rajput
@@Indian_Rajput that is how languages evolve… the Hindi which you call pure also came down from Prakrit tree of languages… I will go further on to say Hindi is the one cannibalising local languages like khadi Boli, avadhi, maithili,… those are not Hindi but still they have been told to speak Hindi more and those languages are going extinct now.
Some today's singers r also different from them they have unique vocals
@@beactivebehappy9894 No any problem Hindi & local language's Mother is Sanskrit so we are okay because of Sanskrit but if some people intentionally tries to remove Sanskrit or local words to foreign Persian we will start a civil war, Sanskrit is our language and Hindi should have only Sanskrit or local vocabulary no Persian.
Man, Arijit is truly One of the greatest Singer of all time, considering he is still 36 and has already accomplished like everything. Truly Amazing.
Ho gaya bhai.
Ab homework karle.
@@Pahadiblood09😂😂😂
@@Pahadiblood09 The Irony tho, People like you are just jealous of achievers.
Arijit Singh voice really good when he was started as a playback singer , now a days his all songs seems same monotonous tone. Sonu nigam, udit narayan kumar sanu had lots of variations
Arijit Singh is a great singer but not the greatest
Legendary Sonu Nigam!
Even in sonu nigam songs auto tune is used
This is called "Humbleness"...he never took his own name..but if it were other singers then they would definitely took their own name first 😂
Listen again....what he says "humlog"... I can understand you may be Don't know what it is meant. Humlog means "amra sobai"
Amra sobai ta aber ke🥴
Performing live on stage is a litmus test for every singer and there is no better performer than Sonu Nigam in India.
there are a lot of voice overs for on-stage performances.
U can watch kunal ganjawala , just dont be a blind follower of sonu nigam
Live autotune exists
@@damneh8688pta lg jata h live autotune wala 😂 kyuki vo kisi notes pe nhi blki ek scale pe hota h , range se thoda sa bahar gye turant pta lg jayega..
Armaan Malik ❤
Let me clear one misconception going around. It's not that old singers used to sound perfect without autotune. Arijit had said earlier that the takes kept for our old singers can be the ones which today's singers can also give but on top of that autotune is added slightly. So basically if you measure at each note, even the legends used to go out of tune at places. So noone was singing it perfectly
rafi lata etc used to sing with live instruments which were not perfectly pitched so they didn't needed autotuning but now a days track is recorded digitally so the singers pitch cannot be matched with the instrument that is why they use autotune. Just like imagine govinda dancing with bunch of professionally trained robots govinda would fail in front of robots that is the example of how autotune works
you know nothing about music production, mastering or music in general. So, shut up @@conqueror_og
@Unofficover Kab Samjhenge? I have learnt, practiced and performed classical for more than a decade, and learnt from the likes of pandit varun kumar pal, a disciple of pt. ravi shankar, pandit anup mishra, nephew of pandit rajan sajan mishra ji, and pt. manish chandra, who is a gurubhai of hariharan. Let me tell you, the more i listen to Lata ji, the more I come to know what i cant even fathom about her prowess as a singer. I have literally fished to find an off note in her singing, but there are none. So as far as that is concerned, do not even think about puttig her other and these singers, though they are also great, in the same statement, for they themselves would not dare to do so.
@armans6972you must be kidding..you left out arijit, papon,etc and put prakriti sukriti Arjun etc lmao...your music knowledge is hilarious
@armans6972Bro, you may have forgotten one or two more names ( hahahaha ) Neha Kakkar , Bhujpoori Singer etc etc 🤣 .. Where does all this knowledge come from? You people seem to be born ignorant
There are many singers out there who sing without emotion and feel still get popular because of the money they spend in production and marketing.
Tony kakkar? Dhavani Bhanushali?😂
@@rajbarik8588Exactly 😂😂😂
What Arijit is saying that comcposers like Pritam tune the human takes a little to sound more beautiful. If you notice Arijit's songs sung by Mithoon (like Dil jhoom), Mithoon has kept raw takes of Arijit there where you can see his breaking voice too which actually sounds beautiful in itself. So it's not that these singers can't sing without autotune, but that autotune is just getting added today as an extra layer to fine tune a little
Ya man so they don't sound harsh to our ears output is very soothing
😢 KK come back otherwise where ever you are talk to us, i think sonu nigam is a synonym to him and whenever i hear his name i always feel that why don't we have KK with us. this new generation they don't understand what we lost, he was prominent and veteran singer in the industry.
Sonu Nigam is a different league altogether
This is why Kishore Kumar and Lata Mangeshkar are regarded as the greatest male and female playback singers of all time respectively. They did not rely on autotune to make their voices sound melodious.
Hemant Kumar
Bhai abhi Arijit ne Sonu Nigam ka naam bhi liya voh toh dekh leta Kam se kam
@@dibbyendukarmakar8351 Great singer, definitely. He could be your personal favourite. However, most wouldn't agree with you due to his lack of popularity and versatitlity.
singers nowadays also dont rely on autotune to sound melodious lil bro. Also no human has the ability to ALWAYS remain 100% on tune. There are always imperfections if u listen to the raw vocals of any singer. even tho alot of times these imperfections dont make a huge difference they are still present which is why autotune is used
@@phoenix007ism this is why there's big difference between 60s 70s songs with today's. Those songs sounds a bit rough because it used to be recorded live, but now there's a lot of technology it makes the tunes so clean and smooth. Autotune is one of the effects that's being used to make it better we have a better quality. Autotune won't make you better singer, just like the bhojpuri ones that hear. But it certainly make the quality of a song better if it's being used properly on a melody. We have a misconception about autotune. U should watch the full interview what Arijit has said
Sonu nigam and shreya ghoshal are forever perfects ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Electronic music killed the originality of instruments.. autotune killed the originality of singers
rafi lata etc used to sing with live instruments which were not perfectly pitched so they didn't needed autotuning but now a days track is recorded digitally so the singers pitch cannot be matched with the instrument that is why they use autotune. Just like imagine govinda dancing with bunch of professionally trained robots govinda would fail in front of robots that is the example of how autotune works
In that way recording music killed the originality of listening live and the originality of beautiful natural voices around us too.
To be honest nothing has killed nothing one can still make music by recording whole song live and autotune can easily be avoided.
No one is forced to accept the change.
@@sunnyoneight exactly
Video killed the radio star 🥲
No it didn't, autotune enhances music
more respect for Sonu nigam after watching this .
no wonder these autotune singers sounds so different in real when they are asked to sing acoustic version , plus they lip sync most of the time on stage
Glad that someone of Arijit's stature came out and said this. Autotune is necessary in modern music and enhances it, it is not a bad thing.
He is right but on top of that its more to do with frequency spectrum getting narrower now a days . As we are using more of software sounds and pre recorded samples which are so fine tuned that a human voice cannot match that. So its important to tune the voice with those electronic pitch perfect sounds.
Arijit sir ❤. The way he explain things 🤍
technology make life easier and should be used it doesn't matter how much you used until it sound good to ears. i don't know why people hate autotune, is it because less talented singers are able to shine more
Shreya ghoshal ko kisi auto- tune ki zarurat nhi hai
Aw jab arijit sir sonu ji bole na kitna humble lagee ❤,, arijit singh btw rn abhi wo world mei second most followed singer hai after ed shreen , third taylor swift hai who has 97 million follower in spotify and arijit sir has 98.9 million follower ,even most of indian dont use spotify jabki western sab spotify use karte hai
One thing people should clear in their mind, everyone in music industry uses autotune, not even legendary singers are exception. Sonu nigam, Shreya, sunidhi or arijith, their voice pitch changes in their songs. That pitching is also a part of autotune.
Just Explained by A LEGEND🙌
Thanks Arijit for being candid.
Arijit Singh will remain Melody king ... Autotune will not grasp him
The majority of people can never understand the kind of other-worldly talent Sonu Nigam possesses..His perfection at his craft will be studied by students of music for generations to come🙏🙏
People need to understand the difference between auto tuning and processing of vocals. As Mr Rahman himself said for Shreya Ghoshal that "why would anyone put auto tune on her voice"
Auto tune is used for pitch correction and any rigorously trained singer is unlike to go off pitch. Obviously to make vocals sound different some processing is done.
For instance, in ishq hua from Aaja nachle film, Shreya's vocals were processed to make them husky.
One song that I think has no processing at all is Kashmir which has just SG's raw vocals
But I have heard shreya ghoshal live, her voice sounds exactly like the recorded one in real life as well . From party song like slow motion and soft songs like tere hawaale it's her original voice , there's is no autotune . U can hear live performances of both the songs
@@ist-ug4bi Exactly my point. To say only Sonu Nigam can sing without auto tune is sheer disrespect to such legends
Non singer cannot use autotune 😂😂😂😂
Salman Khan enters the chat with"Hangover" from Kick
Well Autotune and Melodyne are different things and He only sounds good because they literally pick his bad tuned sounds and places it to the correct position
Thumbnail pe jinka photo diye hain wo singers to nahi hai . Arijit Singh is actually too humble to expose the industry jaha koi bhi kuch bhi gaa de uska gaana ban jata hai

to capture his raw emotion on his name.

@@kabiramalhar2189 Ahh true they use soo much autotune
Any singer before 00s and 2010s had no autotune.
Actor and music director turning into singer day by day is the biggest achievement of autotune.😂 Real singer who trained them since childhood to become singer aren't getting song nowadays 😢
Finally, the importance of sound is getting acknowledged, slowly and steadily.
Gone are those days, where only lyrics will define a song, putting all the other hard working musicians aside and out of context.
A song survives only because of its sound, the lyric just adds flavour to the song! ❤ The more one realises it, the better one may accept a song!
Not fully agreed. The power of words cannot be compared with anything in music. Listen to meaningful poetries, or any master singer without singing without any music instrument. You will get goosebumps, it's because of the lyrics, meaning and then the emotions with which the singer delivers it. On top of that, of the music is also crisp then it's a cherry on top of cake. A great composition is culmination of all these things, not only singing or music.
@@gauravs4523 Is it so? then why trash artists like 6ix9ine , trippy Redd , Lil pump , Lil Xan , Gunna etc are getting streams?

Autotune: Voice of Punjab
At the end of the day, the creative intent is the goal.
The guy on the right said it right. It is a tool at the end of the day. Just like your own voicebox is.
Different is,it was actually a tool for singer to make & beautify thier song in peace,
but now some are use it for to be singer without any bearable voice....😢
Meanwhile tony kakkar: gana gau jhat bhar autotune use karu raat bhar😂😂
But nowadays every new modern singers is like using it abuse music... If you're using it to just tweak it minutely here and there ok then its understandable.... But some singers completely depend on it and when they sing on live stage they sound really bizarre and their song is also BS!!! A Huge difference is quality... Hence this is why I only listen to oldies... Lyrics, voice, background is humane for both western and Indian musics!
Sonu nigam❤
Arijit's version of auto-tune is just like another masala which might not make a big difference, still they use it.
But auto-tune we don't like is used by non singer like Salman.
But I think it depends,there is a japanese show called the first take...so it requires a lot of practice but the movie industry doesn't have that kind of timing
This Candor needs so much courage! Hats off sir Arijit Singh. I hope Pritam da won't take things personally.
critics in the comments having no idea how to sing claiming autotune tweaks are magic 😂
rafi lata etc used to sing with live instruments which were not perfectly pitched so they didn't needed autotuning but now a days track is recorded digitally so the singers pitch cannot be matched with the instrument that is why they use autotune. Just like imagine govinda dancing with bunch of professionally trained robots govinda would fail in front of robots that is the example of how autotune works
I am a singer btw
@@conqueror_og well said, before the standards for 12 tone equal temperament weren't so rigid. same with Western artists like The Beatles
Actors turning singers is the worst outcome of autotunes.
Also why suresh wadkar dispossd off AR Rehman..
Autotune is for music, as chatGPT is for writing
They all sound same as there is no experimenting with different sounds, keys, scales, modes, raagas, or rhythms. They are concealing high pitched auto-tuned vocals with low pitched bass. None of these singers can do a solo or an alaap without accompaniment of instruments. They would not have survived the rigors of Shankar Jaikishan, OP Nayyar, Madan Mohan, or Naushad.
I think Brut India needs autotune more than music industry. Itna ganda mic kaha se laate ho bhai, audio gain, wind blowing, bass boost , everything is amped up beyond human frequencies. Kaan se khoon aa gaya.
The asthana vidwan of Mysore Tiger Varadachariar used to sing without microphones.
Shreya Ghoshal ❤
Thumbnail me Aalia ko kyu dikhaya, vo kab se singer ho gayee??
why kill the emotion?
its like adding sugar, in very small amount, it will not matter, or may enhance the flavour, but if you add a lot of sugar, it will taste bad
I also have the same question. Raw vocals will add more emotion to the song, right?!
@@shwetachaudhari1894 Indeed! But if autotune is done correctly songs will sound better, autotune cannot add any value to singer's singing ability but it can add value to listeners entertainment! If done professionally autotune won't kill the emotion.
@@rig3930 I get the point. But as Arijit is saying that they don't need to correct Sonu Nigam, I do believe that Sonu Nigam doesn't go out of tune. But I don't think all others need the autotuning!!! And it's okay if someone is chosen for the voice quality and goes a bit out of tune so is corrected with autotune. But why do good singers need it?
@@shwetachaudhari1894 I can think of two reasons only,
one is what I already said earlier, to enhance the quality, offcourse good singers can easily pull off the quality but with autotune they can add a little flavour to it
Second, they can make unnatural voices for example a robotic sound (like in ROBOT movie songs)
ok
Sonu ji supremacy !!
No Tony Kakkar was harmed in this video😂
Just don’t consider Dhwani a singer
Absolutely 😂 but still Vaaste is getting billions of views

Sonu is an exceptional talent n ❤

Finally koi sach bola aake
Autotune needs shaan
I don't use it.
what a technicality 🎉🎉🎉
Lag raha hai abhi bhi Arijit bol nahi rahe, gaa ke bata rahe hai ❤️
So people in comments who are saying that telling Lata mam Kishore ji etc used to sing perfect is not true…they were great but it’s not possible for humans to sing in perfect pitch be it them or western legends like Freddie mercury etc it’s just that they used real instruments which are not perfect tuned so it sounds great together but today in music production vst plugin and computer generated instruments are used which are completely pitch perfect so if you don’t use autotune it will sound a bit off from the music….autotune is just for slight correction and doesn’t make you a great singer….if you’re a bad singer autotune will make you sound robotic example tony kakkar😂….but if you’re giving good takes people won’t even notice that autotune is applied….
I disagree with Arijit sir, bcz bahot sare singer hai jo bina autotune gana gaye toh itna ghatia sunai dega ki.pichho.mat, ajkal bahot kam singer hai jo genuine singer hain aur bina autotlrune k.v gaa sakte hain😊
Direct ai se kaam kar sakte hai nah
If autotune is like salt, Thaman always cooks food very salty. I mean, everything he cooks is salty.
It's like an engineering student saying that only who has some knowledge about engineering can cheat and after securing 35 -36 marks then cheats are used to get that 4 - 5 marks!!
Singing is the only job every singer has. That's the reason why they charge huge sum of money and still publically justifying their lack of skills!
No, there is no need of any software to correct nodes and pitches. It requires only practice, practice and practice but these Bollywood singers don't want to do riyaz enough, they just want fame, money etc. If anyone has any doubt about what I am saying, kindly go and sit in any reputed classical singer's mehfil and you will get all the illusions clear.
i mean anybody who says autotune is bad is just wrong and illogical. they are singers, its their profession. they work in order to deliver the product that is their voices, according to how users would like it. u sing, cuz u like it, they sing cuz they want to sell it, these are two different things.
What's with Alia Bhatt here helding the mic? I mean topic ke sath relate kaha kar Raha he? Ganja lo, utna nahi
Are yar only Autotune kisi ko singer nhi bna skti
Kisi ki makhmali voicw hoti h or kisi ki husky voice hoti h
Arijit sir ki to bchapan ki voice bilkul makhmali thi
But kisi ne psnd thodi kiya us voice ko
Bcz us time makhmali voice ki demand full thi
Udit ji, sonu ji , kumar sanu , shan, kk etc
But arijit ne khud btaya na unhone voice ko tod marod ke esi voice bnayi or vo logo ko achhi lgi
Ab esme Autotune kya ghanta krega
Haa high notes ke cracking ko thoda smoth kr skta h
Or autotune bilkuk bhi use naa kre to bhi ek tyar singer ki voice achhi hi lgegi
Uske every sur lgenge
Autotune tb sbse bekar h jb kisi singer ko sur bhi nhi lgana aata or autotune se hi sur or Robotic voice de di jaye
Ese song mind kharab kr dete h
Bhojpuri songs me mostly milegi , ek limit se jyada autotune
Its not far when AI will start singing better. Ultimately everything, politics, economy art etc have to give way to science as former are governed by men, latter is law and truth of God(nature).

This arjit guy has great voice hope he learns singing one day I would love to hear him sing.
Sonu purana h na asal singer h isliye usko autotune nahin chahiye
Baki sab jali h

The thing is even after using autotune the music sounds shitty....and the lyrics are getting even shittier. Indie musicians are in a much better stage now with better lyrics, even though they maybe using autotune.

instead of explaining autotune to people , why cant he accept the truth that he and others are not gifted and talented as Sonu Nigam . just accept the facts and move on
He's literally saying they don't have to correct anything with Sonu Nigam! Doesn't that mean that he thinks all others are not as perfect as Sonu Nigam?!!
Anyways the discussion was not about who the most talented singer is. It was about the usage of autotune!
Is it really necessary to criticize anything just for the sake of criticizing?
Thats what he told. Nobody is as talented as Sonu Nigam when comes to singing.
You kidding, right?
No one is as talented or as hard working as Sonu Nigam I agree, but that doesn't mean other singers are bad. Arijit and many others are fantastic singers
If you don't know the shit that singers DON'T DEMAND that I want autotune in my voice like hum singers bas gaake chale jaate hain...2/3 takes liye jaate hain..usmein se jo feel mein sur mein baitha ho usey use karlete hain composers..and composers are the ones who use such things singers kahi jaake bolte nahin hai mujhe ye chahiye woh chahiye.. singer's work is to sing good and it's on composer if he wants to do any shit to that recorded material
1st thing thing alia bhatt is not a singer 😂😂
No Salman Bhoi harmed here 😂😂😂
I put it this way. There are less singers produced than demand. Most of the media companies can't afford good singers. But what if I told you that there is a software that can make a 7/10 singer sound 8.5/10 and the singer costs 70$ instead of 100$. You would take it right. That's why people do it.
Also it's better for the artist. Imagine your whole life you trained to sing but you couldn't be that 10/10 singer. Well you can pump that rating up by using autotune and create a living out of it. Pretty good right. 🥳
