Yeah. Tarja sounds great in the studio, but she has a tough time reproducing that same quality live on stage.

I do not know for sure whether her voice was extensively processed through autotune during the studio albums- they do not sound like they were. However, given what she sounds like live- i.e. a bit like a strangled cat at times- I'd say that she was probably getting at least some form of artificial help to smooth out her voice.

Fortunately Floor Jansen has NO such issues- she sounds incredible no matter what the material is. To my mind she is the best female metal singer out there today.

Makes the band finding other singers, especially given the stylistic straight jacket her “operatic” style put the music , make even more sense.
