Live band for next series?
Given that it's a music show I always find the generic, karaoke-type backing tapes they sing so a bit.....cheap. It doesn't sound terribly impressive either. It'll only be possible during the live finals but I think it'll really perk the show up a bit to have a live band there. On SCD it doesn't seem to restrict the song choices and often it livens up a song and brings it to life as opposed to singing to a tape.
Genuine live music might bring some life back to some of the later stages. A live song always sounds better to someone adding vocals to a tape. |

They could alternatively let some actual bands on X factor , so those people would not need another band to accompany them.

They used to have a live band on American Idol and it quite frankly made every song sound dated.

Yes. The contestants have several rehearsals before they appear in front of judges.. Quote:

https://youtu.be/07Dx3V4xAM4 Or take a lesson form Postmodern Jukebox https://youtu.be/hwsEdFkdjYA https://youtu.be/mphD90urEp4 https://youtu.be/m3lF2qEA2cw https://youtu.be/aLnZ1NQm2uk That should help you with a musical education. |

The band worked great sometimes on Idol and was a big miss other times. For performances with orchestration or acoustic it was stunning and unbeatable. But anytime a contestant tried to do a modern or dancier song it sounded like shit. Perhaps a good mix?
