Mixed voice vs Belting - what's the difference?

People often ask me: what's the difference between mixed voice and belting?
The answer is: this is not the right question to ask! it's not a tradeoff between one or the other.
In order to achieve a healthy high belt, you NEED to be using mixed voice, otherwise it's not a belt, it's just a yell.
Belting is holding on longer to a wider vowel while still maintaining a head voice engagement and cry tone, while still keeping mixed voice engagement. It is a tool to sound fuller, but it's not a means to an end
