    Weezer-Blue Album

    Does anyone know anything about gear used on this album, production, micing techniques, etc. The Blue Album has to be Weezer's greatest album and I really admire the way albums such as the Blue Album, Surfer Rosa, and In Utero just have this really raw realistic sound. I think its got something...

    Do people ever do this?

    I was thinking if someone were to record a vocal take autotune it and then use some sort of midi converter the vocals could be turned into a software instrument/music notation making it easier to sing in key. Is this ever done and it there an easy way to do it/name for the process?
