is there also a possible way to just adjust your voice, because you just really love the key of the singer or is this not realistic?

@bob.smeenk could you answer me a question? I saw your video about breath support, and I tried to reduce the air pressure on high notes so I could sing in a higher volume, but it still sounds kinda low. Is there a way of you to give us some advices on resonance and healthy vocal chords closure? Perhaps this is what I need to improve to sing higher notes with a higher volume...
@bob.smeenk3 күн бұрын
difficult to give advice on this without hearing you sing. If you just shout "HEY" without thinking about singing, do you get the volume you'd like?

@ 😅 E4 is my last one before the break. D4 last most comfortable. I go to D2 with ease though, but for most songs i like to sing i dont need nothing lower than B2, but i wish my D4 was F4😅 Mix helps but its absolutely not the same. I guess with break around G4 I even didnt bother to find my mixed voice😅😅

Haha got it. Well, you probably just have a slightly lower voice. But if you mix the right way, the difference will be (almost) inaudible. So this could be a solution to your problem ;)

💯💯💯 I started singing late in life at 56 years old and I figured what better way to learn to sing than to do rough sing-a-longs recorded on my iPhone 📲 where I can get instant feedback on replay on how I’m matching up with Artist while learning song at same time - I try to capture as much of the flavor of the original song as I’m covering them as a challenge to grow as a versatile singer…

I've been fighting the impostor syndrome saying it's too late and that no matter what I'll suck even though I'm 17 and I *know* it's obviously not too late. Sorry for the venting, but this video is an absolute diamond.

Thanks for this, I appreciate it :) It's never too late, but definitely not when you're 17. If singing really is your coolest thing, you might be interested to read Talent Is Overrated.

Is mode C very available to those going though voice changes? I feel like I can’t reach higher notes without straining but i feel like i have the problem of too LITTLE breath but can’t figure out how to balance it. I’m a senior in highschool so i’m wondering if it’s just my voice going through development.
@bob.smeenk18 күн бұрын
In general, yes, all parts of the voice are available (there might be exceptions). The big but: your voice changes faster than your body has time to adapt. Normally singing Mode C in the high range of your voice is already tricky, it requires very precise control, and knowledge of your own voice. But while going through the change, because it changes all the time, this is even harder. Not impossible :D 3 things: 1. Maybe my breath support video will help you with this 2. Trust your feelings and don't damage/force anything (I also have a video on this) 3. Getting more practice in, means you'll get used to your new voice/vocal folds faster. Hope that helps :)

Wait, my singing teacher told me to take in the biggest breath every time. Does this mean it was bs? 🤔Seems like it would waste a ton of energy to be constantly holding in so much air.

I don't know the context, but if he/she really said "EVERY" time, yes, I'd say that's probably bs, and a waste of energy. But if you're in doubt: experiment. See what works for you. You can also ask him/her to watch this video and react to it. Not as an attack, but just out of curiosity. Might be really interesting :)
