As someone who went to a lot of live shows back in the 90s I can tell you that I don't care how good a singer or band is, they never ever sound the same as their recordings do.

Everything effects your singing voice: tiredness, sickness, excitedness, your mood that day, what you ate, how hydrated you are, even crowd reaction will change things in the way the singer sounds. And dude, anyone who watches you can tell that you are such a sweet genuine person and not ever trying to hurt anyone.

"Why do you attack Kent -- you're being mean!" Appeal to emotion/appeal to motivation. "Everyone knows Kent doesn't lipsync." Appeal to tradition/circular reasoning.

I have 45 years in live audio, 2/3 of that working with "artists you've heard of". I'm still working and I signed NDAs so I won't mention names, but these self-annointed golden ears comments Fil featured in this video have no f'in clue about how many of their favorite artists, bands, and performers make use of playback in performances. One band, a quartet, had 96 inputs - half from live sources on the stage and the other 48 were from ProTools or Ableton. The band got the live inputs to their IEMs and the audience heard 98% tracks. Many rappers are lip-syncing, too. The mics are hot so the hype and shoutouts are real, but most of the actual "song" is either the studio vocal or an edit of the studio vocal with some live components; soloing up the live mics in headphones, I can hear the performers moving, breathing, and maybe rapping along at a *very* low level until a shout out comes along. A popular male country singer has a bad alcohol habit and can't utter a coherent sentence by the time he's on stage but his "sung" vocals are flawless; is it magic or an illusion? Another singer who has been on one of the contest TV shows lip syncs the last half (more or less) of his live show for the same reason - he's getting intoxicated on stage and develops both pitch and timing problems. There are vocal tuning plug ins for digital mixing consoles that will work fast enough to be used live, and one of the most popular English-speaking performers has it applied to all non-spoken parts of the vocal performance, along with a dynamics and EQ processing chain that would have been low/mid-five figure$ back when everything was separate analog boxes. Ultimately I work for the artist or someone they have hired for technical and artistic supervision. With some I get lots of artistic direction and discretion, with others there is lots of direction and little room to make changes of any sort (kind of like in theatre) after the tour starts. Some performers seem comforted by the technologies, some need the technologies to make them acceptable, live, others eschew most of it. My personal choice to start out organically and hear what the band or artist is actually doing, maybe apply a little reverb to put some air around it, and hear where their performance of that song, that day, takes us. I like the old ways of letting the art and magic happen on stage, and that my primary job is to share those things to everyone who showed up, artist-willing.

You're ruffling a lot of feathers, and im here for it.

I can't say why Ken Tamplin chooses to use recorded vocals for live performances, but I don't think it's because he can't hit the notes. Too many times in the middle of talking about a particular line of a song in one of his videos, Ken has sung the line raw and belted a G5 or A5 no sweat. So it beats me why he would choose to use recorded vocals. Stamina? He does like to move around on stage and you and I both know that can affect your vocal performance. You were just running around while playing the guitar solo and now you have to glissando up to an A5? I'm just guessing.

Hey Pil, why in the hell can't ugly, hateful people get a life? I truly enjoy your channel & your honesty and kindness. We need to be aware that there are good people here & they do good things. So Pil keep doing you, you are an inspiration to learn from & enjoy. Though I'm not a musician, I have loved music since early childhood. In fact, music is where my heart is. So thank You Pil, LOL BK😁☀🎶🎶🎶

Actual proof won't convince some people these days. They'll simply say that you're manipulating things.

[@CowmanUK]

The difference between Fil and those that say such things, as with all good science, is you can conduct the same experiments yourself and see the same evidence, and should come to the same conclusions.

[@TruthSurge]

What you're trying to show is that each vocal performance (real ones) will be UNIQUE and NEVER matching even on held sustained notes no matter HOW GOOD a singer is. No 2 performances will line up down to the tiny nuances that are lining up in this video. No one could ever even get the TIMING of their words to line up, much less the MAIN pitches and even much less the TINY pitch variations in their vibrato. It's even more diverse than a fingerprint. It'd be like thinking a monkey could randomly type out even the first SENTENCE of War and Peace, given 1000 years of randomly banging on a typewriter. It's just never going to happen.

[@MusicFromTheOutside]

I never watched your channel until today when I saw your first Ken Tamplin video, so when I say that I agree with you and commend your work, I mean it as objectively as possible. I said in my earlier comment that I benefited from KTVA, so I'm not some clueless hater. I've also sung professionally, and produced music for almost 30 years, so I understand the technicalities and can confirm that everything you've said is correct. Having two vocal tracks, 20 years apart, exactly in phase with each other is next to impossible, in my opinion.

[@MouseInTheMirror]

There is one thing you said here that caught my attention. I actually do assume that some type of mimng/lipsynching/playback or other "trickery" is going on at just about any live show these days especially the big tours. What's more is that even though technology has changed I don't remember this being any different in the 80's or 90's. It's definitely more prevalent in certain genres, but my perception is that it's way more widespread than most people think, and is almost a bit of an industry "dirty little secret". This isn't a judgement on my part, I've used sequences and pre recorded backing vocals plenty myself. I'm just wondering... how many "regular folks" would even realize this was thing without someone like you being able to say: actually... this is what it is. Love your stuff, man!

[@polinazdramatazidia5158]

[@cindi1313]

I think "claiming" to be professionals is the important distinction. They can claim to be aliens, doesn't make it true. 😂Very telling that certain people try to say that it is shameful to just tell the truth, rather than being shameful to actually be a fraud. I think that tells you a lot about that person.

[@SteveRyzuk]

Made a similar comment in your last video: I enjoy KT's music, and have for a long time! It seems to me, Fil, that you are absolutely correct in your analysis. As much as it sucks to see it be about a musician I admire, it is still the truth. And thank you for bringing it.

[@localbod]

Fil, keep on producing your quality content. You have to allow for people being willfully ignorant or just plain thick. It is literally impossible to reproduce the same waveform without either using a sample of that waveform or just copy and pasting it. If a live audio waveform is the same as the recorded waveform, the artist is miming. Period.

[@bradwilliams7145]

You are the best FIL! You are doing us music lovers a great service. It's simple, by request, we hire you to use your modern technology to expose the cheaters. Whoever is left from my music era, (early 60s-mid 90s rock/metal) will keep their fans respect if they can still sound decent by playing naturally, and know when it's time to go out on a good note.
