By now I’m sure you’ve watched Neil deGrasse Tyson on the new Cosmos series. On this site from NOVA, you can see if Auto-Tune, the software that makes corrections of sour notes on recordings by professional musicians, can turn Dr. Tyson into a fabulous singer. You can watch the video, or read the transcript and imagine what he sounds like as Auto-Tune tries to fix the problems with his pitch. Along the way you’ll learn about sound waves and how much technology can do to make mediocre singers into listenable ones.
