Gantt,

In the world of DJing I've grown accustomed to hearing some pretty
awful singers in the pop world. Autotune effects can be better than that
at least even if over used. It's an easy way out for sure. In techno
it can be very cool. I am about as sick of autotune as I was about
gated reverb in the 80s. It's a cool sound here and there but . . .
