THE STUTTER EFFECT

The human lingual stutter has been transferred into pop music production, where the effect is achieved by chopping and timing audio into smaller pieces. This can be done rhythmically or arrhythmically.

At the analog level (tape), this process is relatively tedious, while on the digital level it can be achieved with presets that retrieve certain stuttering programs.
