The video is labeled to be on the Vevo live stage. I see pedals on the floor in front of Kevin which he uses on his own videos which may be adding extra recorded beats. This stage is used by a series of videos by various artist all labeled as "live".

[@madenabyss6981]

I noticed that

[@dylan_5]

At 12:05 in this video, you'll notice that the drum sounds come in even though Kevin's mouth isn't moving. This performance is definitely at least partially prerecorded and lipsynced.

[@loriculver7282]

Not true. Kevin is looping the sounds. Look down at his feet and you will see he is using a looper

[@VictorHernandezVH1]

@@loriculver7282 Kevin IS NOT looping an audio track. He’s engaging/disengaging Effects pedals for his electric cello.

[@loriculver7282]

@VictorHernandezVH1 whatever you want to think. Kevin's looping abilities are amazing, and he uses them frequently in his solo work using a foot pedal just like the one in this live video. He is definitely NOT lipsyncing. Perhaps he uses pedals to loop AND use effects on the cello. Doesn't have to be either or. No need to get uptight about it. Jeez.

[@PTXWeeklyNewsPWN]

This is "live" in the fact it is not lip syncing over a pre recorded track, like traditional music videos.

[@anitasmith7764]

Yes I hate people saying that. Gettin old

[@VictorHernandezVH1]

No, it's live, as in "Live."

[@chrispavlich9656]

Yeah, Kevin has a microphone because he’s been beatboxing the whole time WHILE playing his electric cello!😱

[@thelifedorado]

THIS IS LIVE!!! THEY ARE NOT TUNED! THIS IS THEM! The only production here is Kevins Cello is looped using the loop pedals!

[@shelbychesnut99]

This is live. It is not tuned. They have a tradition of picking a non-Christmas song on their album, and it becomes a Christmas song from now on.

[@pamelafoster2302]

The reason Kevin has a mic is because he is beatboxing while playing the cello. Also, if this was not a live recording it would not be listed as live. Their voices do not need tweeking, they sound like they sound. Not fair for you to criticize when you are judging without knowing.

[@Bonofox1]

EXACTLY 👍

[@johnpatricklarson8188]

If you want more Kirsten, I'd suggest their mashup of, "Pure Imagination/ Christmas time is here". They all kill it.

[@karehelene]

Pentatonix has 8 Christmas albums and often have a song that isn't a typical Christmas carol. There is a cute Tik-Tok of Scott searching for a Christmas song that they haven't covered. Then he started searching for songs with "winter" or "snow". Hence, Kiss From A Rose.

[@sheilatumpach2112]

He told us at their concert that he was in CVS and heard Kiss over the overhead sound system and heard the word ‘snow’ and said that good enough. It’s now a Christmas song declared by PTX. 😉 Kevin is celloboxing in addition to the singing, thus the mic.

[@Guy8417]

there may be some real time mixing (pretty vevo has state of the art equipment) but PTX would NEVER lie about something being recorded live because they ALWAYS back that up with how they sound in person and in concert and would thus be way too easy to prove otherwise 😊

[@kelly_kuku]

This definitely IS being sang live, there may be background mixing to make it sound more full but they def are singing live

[@thechomiji]

Mitch is NOT TUNED. You need to see them live. You probably know Scott married his long-time boyfriend Mark this past July. He's been doing a lot of solo songwriting, sometimes collaborating with Mark, and has released a bunch of works. He won an Emmy for choral directing this year and has been working on an original musical. So yes, he's been working on his art like crazy.

[@Perfect_Blend]

I think this is their BEST ever. Kirsty did the Christmas song, Please, Santa, Please, that she co-wrote with Kevin. It's awesome, too.

[@beverlykrebs4372]

It says it is a live performance. I don't think they would lie! AndcI saw thm live on Monday & saw them do this from the front row! It sounds exactly the same.

[@rachel_lee_123]

I’m sure you’ve already heard this comment, haha, but- it’s 100% recorded live. Not tuned. I haven’t looked (apologies) but if you haven’t, try Hallelujah live. I know you reacted to the video (loved the reaction!) but I think that song helps a lot of people realize that this is just pure otherworldly talent. Love your reactions, love your voice, love your energy!

[@Kash7298]

This is live in that they RECORDED the audio WHILE they filmed the video. But yes, the audio was then mixed and mastered after the fact. So it IS technically a live performance, that was then put into post production and polished.

[@vidsorama2]

Not true. That is not how LIVE VEVO recordings work. For them, live means live. What was recorded then is what you're hearing now. VEVO recorded it live at their location.

[@Kash7298]

@@vidsorama2 yes that's what I said. What you're seeing and hearing was recorded at the same time. But the audio was still mastered afterwards. Doesn't take ANYTHING away from their fantastic performance AT ALL. Trust me, I know they sound exactly the same live, I've seen them 10 times and counting. This sounded just as good live the two times I saw them on this tour.

[@VictorHernandezVH1]

WRONG If you were an audio tech you’d see a number of mis-steps in the production. For one: when Mitch takes over the lead from Matt and Scott, Mitch’s mic level is too low on the first syllable of “Baby.” It could be for one of two reasons: 1) his mic wasn’t changed from the BGV SETTINGS (or) 2) overcompensation from Scott’s initial vocal which resulted in Kirstin and Mitch both pulling the IEMs from their left ears, respectively. (BGV=Background vocals)

[@jamesensley3906]

Pentatonix is known for including on their Christmas albums songs that are not actual Christmas songs (such as Hallelujah). Apparently they picked this one just because it had the word SNOW in it.

[@joosyjulie]

There is a short skitt of Scott frantically typing away on a laptop, looking for songs with snow in the title, and getting on a hit on this song.

[@celiachristman104]

If you hear the song from their new album, it sounds different than this. Scott does not do the run at the end of his solo on the recording and his end part is different. "O Holy Night" of theirs just came out on video. The Kirstie solos are great!

[@michaelf8702]

I think it's funny how people will see something like this and hear Kevin's beatboxing and think it sounds too crisp and clean to be live. But if you go to a live performance, like I was at earlier this month, you actually see it happen in real life right in front of you. That's when you realize, this probably was live and being recorded in that studio that they're standing in.

[@sadantnanl1717]

They just released “Oh Holy Night” this morning.

[@nickerpsg1]

I can't agree with you...yes, they've all improved over the past 10 years, BUT Kirstie has gain so much confidence and increased in her singing 1,000% !!!!!!! BTW...it is LIVE like at a concert, although there might be using sound engineer !! BTW (once again),...Kevin has a mic because he was also BEATBOXING during the song !!

[@rfiliagaful]

While I might think there was some post production to blend the volume of the different voices, you've done enough of this group's music to know that they do not do auto tuning. Also, singing "live"does not necessitate an audience. It just means that they didn't record separate tracks that were all brought together for a studio recording. This one, the same as their evolution videos was done in one take with them singing it live on the mics they are holding. In a studio, certainly. But still a live take. Probably with some post production.

[@VictorHernandezVH1]

I know someone who was part of the pre-production crew. He's one of the most respected names in event production, worked for Sony Records, his credentials are legit. Obviously he can't say if anything was done in post, but he said they did sound that great when recording this video.

[@Leslie_AvalonAcresFarm]

Nope, its live and not tuned---this how they sound live.

[@carmengibson]

From what I’ve read…it was in Vevo studio and recorded live. I don’t think they meant to seem disingenuous, just that Vevo invited s artists to perform in their studio.

[@AmandaSmith-zr8mn]

“We’ll be the judge of that” 🙄 it very clearly sounds different from the studio recording. VEVO always has top notch sound production

This is such a fluid masterpiece! ❤ They just received their FIFTH Grammy Award nomination for their 2022 Christmas album! Well deserved! 😊 And this WAS recorded live in the Vemo sound room! There was a sound engineer, that's all. Listen to some of the fan recordings from their current live concerts! Yeppers. Sounds the same. I've often said that the hardest job in a PTX concert is that of the sound engineer! 💖

[@adellhollingsworth2956]

I'm honestly starting to believe that she is just a low key hater of Pentatonix. This is like every video she tries to down play what they do. This was clearly live. Was toned up in any way. No enhancement. This is how they sing. Yes they can make all these sounds. See them live in person and you would understand that

[@melissacoviello2886]

They literally as you uploaded this released a new video for O Holy Night! It’s absolutely stunning!

[@ilikepineappleonpizza4257]

Have you seen their daft punk live in a room with no mics and an iPhone recording? It’s phenomenal! And if you’ve watched the original video, you’d think they’d need tons of studio-ing to get it to sound that way, but truly all that does is make them sound fuller. I preferred this performance over their studio recorded version too. You should definitely react to their Daft punk live performance to get just a taste for their power. You’ll know which live one when you see it. It’s completely barebones! Though, I do think there must be some kind of small backing track here to make them sound a little fuller. Still, it’s definitely live. Another CRAZY live one is their cover of prayer. It’s literally mesmerizing.

[@hcroussette]

Every Pentatonix Christmas album features songs that have nothing to do with Christmas. They use songs with winter themes (like Let It Go or Sweater Weather), religious songs (like Joyful, Joyful or Amazing Grace) or songs that are just happy and which they feel fit the holiday season (like My Favorite Things or Seasons of Love). This one was picked because it has the word snow in it. Yes, it's a stretch, but it's a fun idea. Kirsty not only leads a whole song (that she wrote), but she also has solos on the other 2 Christmas videos they've released this year, Pure Imagination/Christmas Time is here and O Holy Night (which came out this morning)

[@danielcarter837]

This was really epic. This was recorded live and probably mixed. They do a mashup of Christmas Time is Here and Pure Imagination that is COMPLETELY different that this. Really ethereal.

[@vitoriavilar]

Scott is an amazing singer since forever! You need to watch all the Sing Off presentations, in that competition they showed all the abilities they have. They never stop trying new things.

[@Bonofox1]

She doesn't like Scott, she always criticizes him, there is no reason to defend Scott from her because we know that Scott has ALWAYS been AMAZING, his voice has matured and he has developed new vocal techniques . And just like I said in another post just because you call yourself an opera singer doesn't make you a music expert 😅

Ok I'm out it's live recorded. And u missed the proof. Did you not SEE both kirsty and mitch jump to adjust their earpieces because Scott belted out Baby! When they weren't prepared or expecting it. You clearly have never heard them live if you don't know they can self mix. So clearly you don't pay attention so I'm not finishing this reaction. Out.

[@nuimaleko7]

"Did you know, when it snows" is the line that they said made it a Xmas song

[@rogerramjet5214]

I challenge you on that. I believe it IS a live performance. Yes, I'm sure they have sound people adjusting the reverb, volume, etc..but you can definitely tell from the way their mouths form the words that they are singing this. At any concert, all performers have sound engineers who sit at the control board to adjust volumes, etc. Definitely singing this in the little blue room. Kudos to their sound technicians for making it all balanced. They are singing it live, but no audience, rather in a recording studio, but there is no doubt that they are singing it.....All performers use reverb and other effects to make their performance even nicer........nothing wrong with that.......

[@katmit69]

Okay so sorry, but you need to check yourself, "live" does not mean performed in front of an audience. Gosh feel sorry for all those artists during the Pandemic who performed "Live" yet had not audience. A "live" performance can be performed out of a professional studio space such as the Vivo Studio. And saying "Mitch's voice is tuned" when he can sing the exact same tones in a room with no mic or speakers...yeah that's reaching. Not sure why you seem to need to "correct" PTX with your few years of knowledge compared to their amazing amount of music knowledge...you did it on "The Prayer" as well when you claimed they hit a wrong note on a chord. Yeah they don't do that, they plan out those chords to be exactly what they want, and they don't include wrong notes. Not everyone can sing as good as the members of PTX, no matter how hard they try or what school they go to...sorry.

[@stagetech66]

What I find interesting is that the owner of the channel has a big “no comment” to the rebuttals of her claim that this isn’t live, and she claims they are tuned! I know these folks - they don’t need to be tuned. They wouldn’t do it if someone told them to, even in a studio situation they would just do it again until it’s perfect, and that’s assuming they didn’t get it in one take.

[@badmama1962]

Also check out their new MV of O Holy Night!!!

[@cellokimmy]

It’s not tuned… there are a couple noticeable parts where the intonation is not perfect, one is shortly after Scott enters the first syllable of the word stranger. It gets fixed quickly. Do they take advantage of sound mixing features like reverb, yeah. Does Kevin use looping features with his microphone/ cello, yes. Is there a possibility some of that isn’t controlled by him but is by a sound guy, sure. However, still live.

[@stagetech66]

Kevin does his own looping. The only thing the sound guy has to do is handle reverb … (source: I know the sound guy!)

[@ryan99fl]

I'm not a music professional by any means, but I was fortunate enough to have a number of classically trained and passionate choral directors that instilled a love for singing in me. Your videos help remind me that even though music is a universal language experienced individually, there are some reactions that are universal - like goosebumps and shivers from the power of a well-blended PTX arrangement, or a ridiculously well-phrased register transition. Please keep doing what you're doing to help normalize expressing wonder and joy at beautifully constructed vocals and well-performed music overall!

[@ginawhitfield6797]

You're comments are an Insult. Mitch absolutely is NOT TUNED and they Do not lie when they say it's Live.

[@rebeccaoneson6305]

Scott was searching for songs with the word snow in it. That is how they picked this song.

[@Bonofox1]

Your faces tho 🤡🤡. So yeah, Scott has ALWAYS been AMAZING. Maybe his voice is not your cup of tea because your comments in the past have been around the same, but I feel Scott is the vocal glue of the group, plus it helps that he has an very impressive vocal range. Scott has developed new techniques but you listen to him as a teenager or in his early 20's he has ALWAYS had a strong voice and AMAZING voice control. His voice has gotten stronger and matured as has Kirstie's. Matt has become more comfortable in his role plus showing off that he is more than just a bass. Kevin took us to THE MOON with his part🌙

[@wdm4995]

I saw an interview with Scott in which he mentioned that this song has a reference to snow. That was enough for him to consider this a Christmas-related song. Go figure. This was recorded live. Period. These guys are freaks of nature and they are that good.

[@KayRoss-ff4iy]

They are in a special studio that invited them to sing in. Thats why the sound is sharpened. They are live!

[@LWM521]

When has Mitch ever needed tuning? Wonders of nature. ❤

[@roupdawgg24]

I think it's a Christmas song because it comes from the Batman Forever (1995) movie which takes place around Christmas time

[@smithpauld1501]

The studio version puts Kirstie a bit more forward before Kevin goes off. This is part of what VEVO considers its live series, all in the same stage/room/whatever that is.

[@jimcollier4114]

to me, she sounds more forward here in the live version than the studio version and the part where Mitch comes in on the second chorus, his "baby" is drowned out by the background voices and the cello.

[@anitasmith7764]

It IS live!

[@stephiluttrell3416]

My husband and I were front row this past Saturday in Knoxville, TN. There were great and sang Kiss from a Rose. Scott told the crowd that after you have done as many Christmas songs as they have it's hard to come up with new song. He went to say he was at CVS and heard Seal's Kiss from a Rose and it had the word snow in it. He went hum snow Christmas. That was how Kiss From a Rose became a Christmas song by Pentatonix. They are absolutely fantastic live! If you have a chance to see them you should. I am sure there are recordings of their performance in Knoxville.

[@margretrosenberg420]

Pentatonix ALWAYS includes at least one song on their Christmas album that has nothing to do with Christmas. Examples from past Christmas albums include "Hallelujah," "The Prayer," "Prayers For This World," and "White Winter Hymnal." This is the 2023 non-Christmas song on their Christmas album. Beyond that, before the album came out PTX posted a Short of Scott Googling "Christmas songs Pentatonix has not covered" (or words to that effect) and coming up empty. So then he Googled "songs that mention snow" and got "Kiss From a Rose."

[@kiracattan4624]

I have always listened to Seal sing the original, but this... This song just tops it all. Amazing.❤

Respectfully disagree. I saw them live on Dec. 3rd in Baltimore, and that performance of “Kiss” sounded just as good as- if not better than- this one. Thank the sound engineer for being at the top of his/ her game on a live mix.

[@Bine80]

@@kurtfroberg3608 I still (respectfully) have to say this is not really live. There is definitely a filter/mix used after the recording and like I said they are great live (saw them live too this year) but this is just too perfect. And I am not the only one saying that. I actually don't understand why it is always a problem when it comes to PTX and them using postproduction on recorded live performances. They did it so often and you can hear the differences esp. when they perform really live on TV shows like the GMA show a few days ago. It's simply 100% live with not 100% perfect pitch and cracks etc.. That's normal and they still sound great.

[@xheralt]

If there was a JT song in there, he cribbed it from the original -- JT was just debuted with NSYNC when Seal sang this originally in 1995!

[@helmedon]

This is recorded live. Not remastered or "produced" as it were. No tuning, they would not allow something not genuine to be released like that. You should see the stuff they did on the sing off show they won that got them famous. Kevin was originally known for playing cello while beat boxing.

[@Contridiction-vp3fv]

@MaggieMay, just so you know, I have seen probably 15 or so artist/groups do this kind of recording and call it live. It's not just PTX. I had trouble accepting it myself, but seems any time they do a "one-take" recording, that is just a raw recording only using the artist voice, and any instruments, and is not altered afterwards is considered as being live. Which PTX was actually using the "live" terminology way back during the evolution of videos, (between 2012-2016 I believe), and that was about the time I saw other artist start to use it. I don't know what you meant by saying they are tuned, I think you heard the electric cello and assumed they were being tuned. Because you are the only person that has heard anything like that, and by now there have been several thousand people heart it, what's the chance you are the only person good enough to catch that.

[@russellfisher2853]

Kirstie also does a beautiful job on the new oh holy night.

[@gracebreen427]

You need to watch a live concert video of them or go see them live because this is a live recording and they sound the same in concert as even there non live videos I’ve seen them in concert.

[@KCCadillacGuy]

PTX is amazing. Phenomenal voices combined with the best arrangements in music today. Add to that the best, most experienced audio team behind them (producer/mixer/engineer.) This was recorded live for sure. And then handed to a mixer and sound engineer, just like any other song. Even live at a concert, that big device in the middle is where the sound engineer will adjust mix and add effects. They aren't there for nothing. (If you ever want to tell the difference, go stand by them and listen for a song, then go to the rafters near the stage and listen to another.) Even the most "live" PTX song will have some post production. No, they do not sound "the same," but usually very close. Bottom line, all those people who get credits on the album play a role, don't be so surprised!

[@davidbuchanan3374]

If you look closely you'll see Matt takes over on some of the beatboxing. He can beatbox like Kevin just NOT to his professional level but enough to carry Kevin when he needs..
