    100 percent , the mix voice you and Chris Liepe , bohemiam vocal studio are teaching is the one i am working on. It feels great when you get it. Sometime it is harder than others. On the other hand the mix that Tyson Wyong teaches seems more of a blend . Not the same coordination as this stuff. Maybe I'm wrong but Tyson may not realise he isn't in a mix coordination?. Man. I love your work. Keep it coming

    • @SterlingRJackson

      I know of Chris Liepe but haven’t followed his teaching. I don’t know of Tyson Wyong. All I can really relay is my experience and understanding of the voice from my perspective and do my best to teach that. There are definitely anomalies though where people can do different things and find different workable paths. 😊

      we have the same teachers. The cry seems to add more power to the mix, though Chris and Keegan's approach seems to be different, Tyler's technique seems to be lighter. I can pretty much connect head and chest and access my mix, only problem is it is too light for now

I would practice placing and getting to know your voice on a more nasal level for some time. It helps you to integrate that next tier of your voice. Either way, thanks for watching. Hope I helped in some way. 😬

    Best explanation ever of the mix voice. I totally agree with everything you’ve said. In my personal experience, once I find the “2nd circle” of resonance (in the soft palate) I also use the vocal fry onset instead of the crying technique and it helps me a lot in losing weight. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge.

    Is it possible to do mix if you have a rubbish falsetto or a weak low one? My falsetto doesnt go any higher than my chest and always flips and cracks to different tonality.
    Just wondering if im waisting time not having a decent falsetto as im not a fan of that sound anyway.

  • @heythere6983

    Once someone can get into the high notes with mixed, should they constantly try to do nasal whiny tones as warmups? When I had my opera singer teacher show me how to sing , she always made me go more nasal and all I ended up with was a ridiculously annoying loud and nasal voice that sounded tiny .
    Just doing scales randomly at times I can go above c5 comfortably without being weirdly nasal, so at this point is there benefit to me doing those types of weird tones ? Maybe to just have control of the voice?
    My issue was back then, the nasal thing was baked into my tone, I couldn’t get it out, my speaking voice , everything was just grossly nasal.
    It was weird though bc now if I lower my soft palate a little it creates an airier tone that doesn’t sound so dense to me and it sounds better to me. Before with her I felt she was directing me to sin towards my hard palate but keep my soft palate raised totally and I got a very “hard” tone. In retrospect I feel like she wasn’t a very good teacher, her answer to everything was more hard nasal presence and more belting , she’d keep me going even when my voice would give out and not hit high notes, she’d just keep making me do it. By the time I’d sing a song at the end of the lesson I couldn’t hit high notes I otherwise would . Part of the reason I couldn’t hit high notes at times with her was her control of my mouth posture , never smiling or slightly wider mouth, always tall and narrow with hard palate placement and belting . Super open mouth , chin never moving , larynx always still . It was such a pain, I did grow as a singer in some ways but I question if I woulda had better growth with just about anyone else

    I'm trying to make those high pitched sounds (cat meow) since decades. Without success. The only way to create a high pitched sound (C5) is with falsetto, much air, heavily yelling. So how can i find a way to those exercises? As i said i'm trying it since decades.

    • @SterlingRJackson
      @SterlingRJackson  Год назад +1

      More pressure and more air is never the way to go about anything. There’s many things I could ask or would have to know so it’s difficult to help through a RUclips comment. Your age, voice, how you’ve sang throughout the years and how you’re going about performing the exercise could all come into play here. Short advice here would be to check out my video on vocal fry and try it like that. As small and relaxed as possible. If you can do it small like that, you definitely won’t be doing it any other way (at least in a healthy way)

      Sorta difficult to say actually. I’ve heard some evidence of a little use of mix but it doesn’t seem like it actually.

    Also, it seems that I have to connect into my head voice very low at around D4. Pretty sure that’s not correct. At age 49, im about ready I give up on this. Maybe my old vocal chords are just too old now for all that and being a natural low baritone, I’m eternally stuck with a limited range. Genetics suck
