Making music with a computer is one thing, but paying someone to use a computer to alter your voice and then calling yourself a singer is something else entirely.

I don't think that's true. If somebody isn't good at their profession, you have a right to criticise them. Why should you only be allowed to criticise somebody that works in the same profession that you do? An if you're not fit to judge anybodys music unless you're a musician, nobody would be listening to music but musicians. Because nobody would be able to appreciate it, because their not allowed to judge whether they like it or not.Quote:

The Kidz bop series of Cds completely suck. We need to destroy their HQ so that thye will stop making CDs, then go ahead and destroy every single CD that is on the marker by them and heck, destroy every copy that was bought too. Those who will help me in my campaign must pay me $1000 so that I can buy a weapon on mass destruction. (oh, and we'll need a couple thousand followers paying at $1000 dollars to reach this goal.. Thanks!)

Apologies, I didn't realize you were specifically referring to singing, I thought you meant music in general. As someone who's grown up in a house where computers were used to make music, and who's had a go himself, the fact that one doesn't directly play an instrument doesn't mean no talent is involved.
As to whether people should augment themselves with technology, I can honestly find no reason to dislike it. That's just me though, and I'd really like it if I could sing without hurting people.
Best typo ever. People who actually use real instruments and not techno generated sounds do have more musical talent than because using a computer to make music doesn;t use musical skills it uses your computer skills. If you don't know what I just said then let me say it clearly. It's been said I know...Quote:

Actually you could be using a Midi keyboard to play with, thats a instrument and it links to the computer by USB, so what you just said back fired. Savage.
But would the keyboard generate noise with nothing to connect it to?
Why are you so hostile, stoner?
Someone who makes music using a computer seems more like a composer than a musician to me. Nothing wrong with being a composer.
out of curiosity ? are you saying that blink 182 have the great voice your talking about or good charlet ? because if you are you have mooted you point before even making one.Quote:

**EDIT**-as well as the artist- how bout play at all :) then you have no right to judge. End of story.
Well, then, never ever say a movie or a video game or a book or tv show or anything else sucks ever again, or you're a hypocrite.Quote:

I usually say its not my cup of tea ... sux is a subjective term anyway. and only means something to the person saying it.Quote:
