i dont think that they "improve" people's voices on the computer. what they do is record the song and have the singer sing it like a hundred songs(literally) and then go back and listen to all the takes and put parts of each recording into one song. for instance: if a singer wer singing "mary had a little lamb" (first thing that came to mind) then the singer would sing that line a whole lot of times. then maybe on the computer they'll edit out the "mary" part of it and put the "mary" of a different take into it. get it? so when u hear the overall record and u hear the singer say "mary had a little lamb" it's probably a mix of like 30 different takes. i was watching MTV(US) and christina aguilera was having a diary or soemthing..i forgot. anyways, she was in the studio recording a song. after singing it over and over, they sat in front of a computer and picked which parts of which words they like in each song. she liked the "whoaAaAaa" part of "whoaAaAaaAaaAHH" but she didnt like how it went so far so they cut the "AaaAHH" end of it off.

if this isnt what your talking about, are u talking about like..making the voices stronger? because an example of that is in the instrumental of "ourselves". if u listen to it, u hear the backup singing. this makes the singer's voice sound louder and more powerful. without it she wouldnt sound as good. =\ i hope this helps.
