Virtually (pun intended) every pop, country or rock band is electronically corrected. Think Britney can really sing? Ever notice how the tempo of every song on the radio is absolutely perfect? <br><br>Its called Pro-Tools (<a href="http://www.digidesign.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.digidesign.com</a>) and pitch shifters... You've been scammed this way for a long time. Now at least the somebody is openly pretending, instead of claiming they are musicians. Though that claim will be next....<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[stu]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 18th 2007 1:32PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Guitar Zeros rock out with Guitar Hero axes]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/18/guitar-zeros-rock-out-with-guitar-hero-axes/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/18/guitar-zeros-rock-out-with-guitar-hero-axes/</guid><description><![CDATA[how quickly you all point fingers.  i know these guys (and their girlfriends).  not only are they accomplished musicians (yes, they play real instruments and rather well). they also understand something about music that pretentious folks who play instruments and look down on others don't seem to understand, that music is fun and that they don't things so damn seriously.<br><br>don't be so quick to point fingers folks, go check 'em out should they play again, it's a fun time out.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[d8thstar]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 18th 2007 4:47PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Guitar Zeros rock out with Guitar Hero axes]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/18/guitar-zeros-rock-out-with-guitar-hero-axes/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/18/guitar-zeros-rock-out-with-guitar-hero-axes/</guid><description><![CDATA[First of all, I play real guitar, and guitar hero, and I also make electronic music... <br><br>These guys would have to know something about music theory to turn the 5 buttons of the GH guitar into real music that sounds good. All of you music "purists" need to get off your high-horses. Music theory boils down to basically just learning some facts and ratios. It's actually fairly easy to learn. Stop treating it like it's art. <br><br>It takes skill to make a good pop song, even a Britney Spears one. Sure, Britney may not be the brains behind it, but there is a producer who has to mold it into a good catchy song. It's not easy. As far as I'm concerned, that's the art of it.<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matt Rix]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 20th 2007 4:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Guitar Zeros rock out with Guitar Hero axes]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/18/guitar-zeros-rock-out-with-guitar-hero-axes/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/18/guitar-zeros-rock-out-with-guitar-hero-axes/</guid><description><![CDATA[Not sure what I think of this whole guitar hero craze.  I too am an amateur musician.  I have worked hard over the past several years to accomplish a competant level of playing.  I personally would rather see kids learning to play an instrument than endlessly pressing buttons under the pretense of creating music.  On the other hand it is a blast to play the game.  Maybe Guitar Hero will launch more kids toward a path of music discovery.  That's what I'd like to see anyway.  There is so much pride in really learning and understanding your instrument.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[G5Man]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 27th 2007 6:50PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Guitar Zeros rock out with Guitar Hero axes]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/18/guitar-zeros-rock-out-with-guitar-hero-axes/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/18/guitar-zeros-rock-out-with-guitar-hero-axes/</guid><description><![CDATA[It doesn't matter if "you want to see more kids playing real instruments". What matters is what the kids want (and adults, don't be so quick to judge). And if a kid wants to dedicate his time to playing video games, giving them a music-playing game lets them learn a little bit, and roll with it.<br><br>If someone wants to dedicate the time to learning an instrument, guitar hero isn't going to stop them. It is another option for people who don't want to LEARN how to play an instrument, and just want to play a game.<br><br>You did know it was a game, right?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[JT]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 20th 2007 1:05AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
