X-Factor Admits Autotuning Contestants
Quote:
Fans had claimed after the opening show that "autotuning" had been used to improve some contestants' voices.
It is used in recording studios to improve performances by correcting pitch and disguising off-key mistakes.
An X Factor spokesman said post-production work was necessary on the show due to the number of microphones used during filming.
"The footage and sound is then edited and dubbed into a finished programme, to deliver the most entertaining experience possible for viewers.

dubbing doesn't necessarily mean auto tune. they could just make their voice louder/clearer cause of mic feedback or something

Well according to the snippet of the article posted.
They do sing live but when televised it's auto-tuned/dubbed.

When perfecting the sound you do NOT need to use auto-tune. This is a LAME excuse.
