ARR has used this technique many times before, and I love it. Forget this technique.. Even otherwise also, ARR had been modifying natural vocals to add beauty to the song! Eg: Mg Sreekumar's vocals in Chinna Chinna MAzhaithuli(En Swasa Katre), YESUDAS's vocals in Pachaikiligal(Yesudas did not like it! It was controversial then) etc.. But all of these experiments brought out MINDBLOWING results!! Remember SHANKAR MAHADEVAN's UPPUKARUVADU???
Sadhana Sargam, Mahalaxmi Iyer, Shankar Mahadevan, Kavitha Krishnamurthy, Hariharan, Madhushree, Minmini all sound the BEST in ARR songs! Why?? Because, ARR makes a lot of modifications to the originally recorded voice!! >From his early albums, ARR had been using techniques like DUAL/MULTI Tracking, Vocal Echoes, layer-cropping etc.. and ALL of them, TILL today have yielded the BEST results!!
