Mastering Onsets like a Pro

Mastering Onsets Like a Pro!
Every sound you make with your voice, whether speaking or singing, is set up before it comes out. How we set it up can affect the sound that follows.
In this video, I give an overview of onsets, which are the setups at the beginning of our phrases.
I describe three ways we can set up our vocal folds that can affect different tone qualities. By utilizing different onsets you might invite a clear, thick tone, or a breathy tone, or a clean lighter tone. The songs you sing will inform you of possible choices you can make.
Mastering your onsets is a very important skill for the serious singer. Give them a try and apply them to your songs.

I am a singer and voice teacher/coach in Long Beach California.
I’ve created this channel to make tutorial videos that give you the same training I give my private students. I cover a variety of subjects of vocal technique, inner work, and also performance tips.
I have decades of experience singing in a variety of situations and I know what works, what doesn’t, and also what might cause harm down the road. I refer to it as “Singing for Real.”
When singers learn new techniques and improve their skillsets, they discover that they have so many more options to work with and start basing their style on their strengths. You have your own unique beautiful voice inside and may need to just be shown how to use the tools in your vocal tool box. You can then develop into the brilliant singer you never knew you were.

very helpful

I have been watching your videos when the algorithm suggests them, I still have to watch the rest of this one. But wanted to thank you so far from doing the first demonstration of a glottal stop. I have been trying to learn to sing from the kindness of other people's voices, directions from loved ones, and teachers, but not once ever in person was the glottal stop mentioned. I only heard maybe an example of a glottal stop or what I think of as "glottal tapping," depending on how much "breath" I think I can hear vs. no breath. Will watch the rest later. I just thought it was time I started commenting as well.
