issit effective? what kind of approach does your teacher uses ?

first he talks about the 5 types of sound u can produce.

1. head. (falsetto)
2. chest
3. supported with diaphragm.
4. nasal.
5. throat.

you use different cavities depending on the tune you want to reach. For example. if u would like to reach a lower tone. you should sue your chest voice as it is the most enriching sound. however if u use chest voice to sing higher notes, you will practically strain your voice. anywayz. there is too much to say. aha. go find a vocal teacher instead.

6. Stab yourself. The pain will greatly increase your singing potential. You'll probably be able to sing just like Chester from Linkin Park then

3. supported with diaphragm. <--- I had always thought that singing should always be supported by the diaphragm...

anyway... in Rock/Metal there's the non-falsetto head voice (ie real voice). Jaime Vanderra teaches how to develop the high pitch (head) real voice, as often used in ROCK/METAL songs... eg scream, shout, ...

Also, vocal exercises on how to expand vocal range... even whistling tone and deep low vocal tone

good! registers approach.. mind sharing more info about the teacher, fees and location? im interested

hi all,

do you all know what is the best setup to do some recording of our own singing (talking cheaply, not studio) using our own pc at home?

What's the best sound card and mic to record? currently using Cool Edit pro, very good program to record. Now already bought by Adobe and under adobe audition i think

advices?

Except good sound and amcorp mall, it there anywhere else that i can have vocal lessons? maybe somewhere around klang lama or kuchai lama...

oh, thank you so much for your reply, Everdying! =)
kuchai lama/klang lama is much convenient though "

Oh man I wished I learned back home. Now I'm in Tas and it costs $60/hr. That's the weekly rental rate for my friend's room!

Has anyone here encountered a coach who is insincere?

The type who tells the potential student/ client what they want to hear (e.g. You have potential, you have some basic talent, etc....)

but can't we learn and improve this ourself?
Any tips? Like a video perhaps?

vocal is much more complicated than playing any instrument, somehow it's hard or near impossible to hear your own mistake when you are singing yourself.

Try record your singing and listen yourself.. A good teacher would point out your mistake immediately, there is so many 'abstract technical stuff" such as breathing, pronunciation, how to use your head voice, chest voice etc, all these thing are not easily explain by a video and book

i wish my voice was a tenor =(
I admire my friends who can sing two octave from middle C using Modal Voice( havent reduce an octave lower for male voice)

I wish i can hit those hit note without entering falsetto =(

Anyway, any tips on improving the tone of the voice?

nope. never heard that. my teacher would just laugh if i can't sing some parts of the songs. i think i'm lucky to have an honest teacher.

I also want to improve my vocal range...
Any idea how?
I did improve in vocal since last year but i have no idea how...
I suddenly can reach the tone which i can't last year...
