Vai did a lot more than a few pinch harmonic over-dubs on Live At Astoria...
That whole middle section in "Bad Horsie" with all the feedback and keyboards...
If you listen to that DVD with headphones, you can hear the edits. He got REALLY close with the guitar tones, but not enough.
I know a lot of vocalist are using auto-tune live, (cough::M. Shadows::Howard Jones::cough), it's so transparent you can't really tell unless you listen close and even then, you'd have to experience it in person (the actual amount of auto-tune, not the T-pain shit) to know it was there.
As for Official Live 101.....I doubt there's any over-dubbing at all, that's fuckin straight up Pantera....they were playing that tight before Phil even joined the band and Phil isn't exactly perfect on there....(well, as a Phil fan, he's fuckin badass...but still not studio perfect). Great band, great tones, perfect delivery.
