No problem Dan, and thank you for taking my notes as they were intended - constructively.

Ya know, I used to hate the very IDEA of Pitch Correction, but really, these days, it's par for the course, and not necessarily for the reasons you might expect - i.e. to fix the vocals of someone who can't sing.

Pitch correction is employed routinely for many reasons (as an effect, to evoke a mood or even to do "lazy backing vocals" - I've heard it!) but I think a fundamental and constant reason these days - PARTICULARLY with some styles of contemporary music and very often with Home recordings - is because there can be very little live instrumentation used these days (samples are everywhere - we all play them, even if it's just using patches on our Arrangers/Workstations) and they are of course in PERFECT pitch. Seeing as you (and I, and MANY others) use almost nothing but samples & patches at times, you should consider this as a valid reason to use PC and "level the Playing field" between your vocals and the rest of your backing tracks.
