THE VOICE CONNECTION
SOUND OFF

Welcome to The Voice Connection Sound Off; a forum for users of books like Raise Your Voice, Melody to Madness, The Ultimate Breathing Workout, and Unleash Your Creative Mindset, as well as a place for Vendera Vocal Academy members to interact.

This message board was created so that singers could come together and "sound off" to help support each other during vocal development and the creative process of unleashing the creative spark that occurs when writing and producing music. Currently, myself and vocal coaches Ben Valen, Ray West, and Ryan Wall are here to respond periodicially to your questions, with new vocal coaches coming soon. But, feel free to help each other too:)

This board is here for you to ask questions about my and my fellow coach's books, videos, and MP3 programs, as well as offer others help with our vocal techniques. You may also post videos of yourself and your band to share your music and ask for critiques.

Please refrain from negative comments, profanities, spamming, and inappropriate criticisms of vocal methodologies, vocal coaches, and singers. All negative posts will be deleted and subject to banning without question. I will not respond to negative posts, because, as Mark Twain once said, “Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.” With that said, positive criticism is welcome because that is how you'll grow as a singer during the training process.

Re: Me singing a song

Just did :)
And again am in awe of your voice :)
When I sing low it's always a bit muddy at time but you have that resonance and depth to it which is awesome! :)

hahah! Thanks man! That makes me so happy to hear. I actually had to learn to sing low. I know most people on here just wanna learn to sing high, but learning to sing low is a task that takes work too. The thing I had to work on was even when I sing low I don't let the sound drop down in my throat. I try to keep it resonant and it feels like my entire mouth and head is full of sound and resonance like a subwoofer/bass speaker! :) My voice used to get tired when singing low because I let the sound drop down into my throat. It is possible to sing even your lowest notes and still feel the proper resonance. You can sing the exact same low note with the sound in your throat and with it placed properly and it will sound and feel so so much easier and better. Low notes need as much support as your middle notes....maybe not quite as much as really high ones. Thanks again for your very kind words. Keep rocking man. I love listening to your clips. :)

Re: Me singing a song

I guess what I was saying was that RYV helps you learn to sing low as well as high, and everything between.

Re: Me singing a song

Amen to that!
RYV the complete package for all vocalists;)
I'll work on my lower tones now that I've achieved some of what I needed for my upper registers.
Thanks for the inspiration :)
I want the sub-woofer feeling! xD

I haven't really increased my upper range much using it, but the quality of my tone and smooth register crossing is what I was shooting for. YOu are welcome. Thanks for being so nice. You can do it! Sing baby! :) whoooooooo!
