Is there a way that a mono recording, (i.e. the Beatles), can be
separated to isolate separate instrument/vocals and then apply Auto-
Tune/pitch correction or other fx?
Is it that it would take a lot of tech knowledge to execute this or
has something like this reached the point of just making the right
adjustments in a program like Cakewalk, Pro Tools, etc.?
Thanks.

I'm wrestling with an interference problem on an audio project in
someone's house. Some of the drum channels are picking up a local FM
radio station. I can hear the radio station pretty clearly when none
of the musicians are playing and it's loud enough that I can't gate it
out without lobotomizing the sound on the drum channels.
I've changed out mics and cables. All of the cables are balanced,
relatively short, and pass muster with a cable tester in terms of
continuity and grounding. All of the mics are known to be in good
working order. The cable runs also do not pass any known sources of
interference, nor is the house located near any high-power FM
transmitters. I still get the interference when the mics are unplugged,
so it would appear that the sound is coming from elsewhere. I suspect
that it's coming through the house's electrical system, but that's
little more than a theory at this point.

Er, why?
There's a truism in the sound industry that you can spends thousands of
dollars on RF equipment (and Bluetooth is just a specific frequency/protocol
for RF) and get it to sound almost...but not quite...as good as a $20 piece
of cable.

Why not go Radio Frequency?

What he did with the mains was a good idea, what he did with the monitors
was not. You should ring out the monitors with the mic the singer is going
to use to get maximum GBF. Of course if monitor levels are not too high then
you can do it by ear from a CD just by picking out the frequencies that are
peaking and cutting them a bit but if feedback is a problem then really you
should be doing it using a mic and voice.
