Yeah that was started by Melodyne, that came out pretty soon 
after AutoTune, and that really was pretty mind blowing at the 
time.

But even before the "digital revolution" in sound recording 
producers would just record multiple vocal tracks and cut in and 
out on the mixing desk or cut the actual tape and splice it 
together. Then it was done with DAWs and samplers, now it's done 
with stuff like Melodyne and Autotune

And most people have no idea.

Record producers have been fixing vocals since the invention of 
magnetic tape.
