    Hi, it's David Paul Meyer, director of the Daily Show. I just wanted to say that it was a real thrill getting to direct this performance. I remember watching Vampire Weekend in 2008 perform M79 on SNL, and how I became an instant fan. Now, I play VW's music for my kids, and they love it too. That's what's so special about great music. So yeah, this was a dream gig. I also want to say that this would not be possible without the remarkable efforts by staff and crew at The Daily Show who go above and beyond every single day to create these special moments. It's an honor to get to work with such talented people. I know the internet is not a great place for being earnest and heartfelt, but figured I'd put this out there anyways.

As someone who has a Degree in Audio Production and has worked in the field for 5+ years in a live music context, I am 99% sure that this has been tuned in post-production, or they have employed a real time autotune in their live show setup.
