So you sing and this program creates a song based on your voice? Shitty video aside, that’s kinda cool. Where they fucked up was trying to market it to the “alleged” musician. I can see kids using it like in the beginning and I can see ad fucks using it to come up with commercial jingles, but who’s going to use this to try and seriously come up with something to build a career off of?
Oh wait…

lol
I think even small children would be physically sick having used this program. It’s unbelievable. I don’t know what’s worse, the jazzy slider control or the happy slider control. Ads these days are usually either all musical numbers that are meant to stay in the background, famous tracks from established or up and coming musicians, or the legally agnostic “copycat” variety that intend to capitalize on a particular musical trend. Apart from the Luna and Empire ads, new commercials aren’t stupid little ditties. Did you hear the stupid DJ scratch sample worked into that shitty, jazzy, happy, folksy fucked ass tune the kid was singing? It’s a crime. This has to be a fucking joke. Compare this product to Garageband which now features computer assisted video instrument tutorials performed by famous musicians (like Sting, “Body’s a wonderland guy” and so on). One teaches actual skills and is capable of producing real, listenable tracks and the other is a retard gimmic and lacks all quality and detail producing a completely unlistenable assault on the human ear. Wowzers
