The device (and/or ProTools plugin) is called an Antares Autotune, and for some unknown reason, it is probably now the most overused device in recording.
When it has been intentionally overused as an *effect* (ala Cher's "Believe"), I could just shrug my shoulders and think of it the way people had to think of reverb and tremolo back in the surf music days. When it is used to correct a lack of talent, and that lack is so bad that the effect results in audible artifact, it is truly sad.
