The use of autotune

first you need a decent mic. if you've got one of those you're set. FL has lots of stuff that you can tweak vocals with.

1st dump the vocal track into a channel. then assign that channel to a mixer track. each assigned mixer track has 8 effects channels. they're numbered on the right of the mixer panel. click on one of the arrows and you'll get a drop menu containing a whole bunch of effects.

the poster that said doing multiple tracks of the same vocal line (as in copying and pasting it into several channels) had a good idea. just make sure you pick one (or two that are near-identical) to be the main track(s) that come(s) through the mix. you can still have as many as you want, you just don't want them all out front or it will likely muck-up the instruments and whatnot in the rest of the mix.

you don't need autotune. you just need to experiment and practice. i'm not saying autotune is useless though. combine it with other effects or vocoders and you can do some pretty rad/original stuff.
