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.
Hello there,
I tried different books and cd`s as well after takin` 30 hours with a vocal teacher.
All helped me here and there. I liked to see somethings from fifferent point of views. So of course some authors/teachers tell the same, but at one you don`t understand what is meant sometimes until you read it more clearly from another.
I also have the Brett Manning system and I like to have lots of different excercises to sing along with.
And Brett got a lot on his cd`s but actually didn`t tell too much about the background. Very less about breathing for example.
Jaime`s work is absolute fantastic and still goes on with this forum,new videos excercises.. on other systems you buy your thing and that`s it (and on requests to such thing you won`t get satisying answers..).
I`m seriously into cocal training since 1 and a half years and I like to learn always new things.
Greetz from hot Germany,
