Pitch is a big subject, and the reasons for lack of good pitch vary from person to person.
While there are similar reasons people struggle with pitch, there are also many differences.
Let me explain:
We must first start at the the beginning, with the building blocks, in order to eliminate the moving targets that inhibit good pitch.
1. Support Is King: Good diaphragmatic abdominal support. This is the engine that drives your car. Without it, especially when ascending a passage, scale, or higher notes in a song, pitch will be directly affected by this one component alone. Make sure you are supporting all your notes throughout your range. This will build consistency and remove this as being a possible obstacle.
2. Relaxation Response: We must understand that since the abdomen is carrying the load (for strength in the sound) we must train the chest, neck, and throat to relax, to let the abdomen do the “heavy lifting.”
3. Vowel Placement: We must also learn correct vowel modifications and build good muscle-memory to hold that vowel placement. In other words we need to understand how it is supposed to feel in the throat for these vowels when we sing. If we don’t, it’s like a car with no steering wheel or a ship with no rudder. We need to confidently “steer” these vowels in the right direction with the greatest of ease in the throat.
4. Over-Enunciation Of Consonants: Because we are training with “Open Throat Technique” (to keep the back of the throat as open as possible and not close down the throat when we sing with something called “contiguous phrase singing.” De-emphasizing the consonants enables us to not close down the throat during consonants, and not have to “re-set” up the vowels, so we aren’t constantly having to try to re-open the vocal tract to find that space in the throat again.
5. Air Compression: When we go up and down in a song, there are different amounts of air compression that builds up in the head. The higher we go, the more this compression occurs. The effect of this is much like the doppler effect of a train or police siren passing by at a high speed. Though the “true” sound of the train doesn’t change, there is a perceived change in the “pitch” of that train or siren. We must learn to compensate for this. Try an experiment and you will see what I mean. Get yourself a pair of “closed back” headphones (so there is no air/ audio leak from the outside). Put on some music where music is playing in the room and have the same music playing in your headphones. You will notice that after listening for about 30 seconds, when you remove the headphones, the “pitch” will drop. It doesn’t actually drop, it’s just your perception of this pitch will sound “flat” or underneath the pitch you heard in your headphones compared to the room. Now let’s relate this to voice. When we ascend a scale or passage, this same kind of “doppler” effect happens in the head. We train ourselves to be able to compensate for this change.
6. Ear Training Exercises: To “sharpen” one’s ear to good pitch, there are some excellent exercises that can be done to conquer pitch issues with confidence. It takes time, consistency, and patience. I cover these concepts in my singing course called “How To Sing Better Than Anyone Else.”
Great Singing To You!

Imagine loving to sing but you are just so tone-deaf and one day you give birth to a child who sings anything naturally in perfect pitch with no effort whatsoever, any note is recreated exactly and they can improvise and sound good all the time lol. Music has always been a thing in my home. I'm blessed. My kid loves singing and I'm watching your videos to help her get better and have more discipline, she expressed her desire to be a singer. Thank you for all the tips and lessons, much appreciated.
Rock on! 😀
God bless you, 🙏👍
ahaha ive sang PERFECT offpitch for 60 years now..why change now
Savage.🤣❤️
There’s definitely a difference between what I hear inside my head versus outside my head.
😊
Omg YES! Play a random note on the piano and I can reasonably quickly identify what note it is (so I know I have good sense of pitch), but when I sing I'm pitchier than I realize (and it's usually a hair flat).
There's a trick for that I've seen idk if it works but you can try it
Put your hands or a book or paper or something in front of your ears. Dont wrap it around your ears just put it right in front of them with, if you use your hand, your palm facing the front
@@daisyisnotreal I know it too, it works! Can even put fingers in front of ears and press a little, you'll see the difference... If not, keep singing straight and take fingers away slowly and again bring 'em back and press slowly you'll definitely see the difference, and yeah that's how people hear you, not like recording voice...
Best slinky impression ever.
I appreciate that, Jason. That took me quite some time to get perfected.
"If you're out there and you feel like you suck"...... slowly raises hand
I used to be able to sing
Then puberty hit
Now i sound like a dying cow
Can you help me? Please?
The Doctor Trust me it's very hard to sing in your teens, especially older teens. When you become an adult, you will develop a more stable, better sounding tone.
The Doctor- Have you checked out my course? store.kentamplinvocalacademy.com/rock-your-voice-sale/
The Doctor if u think u sound like a dying cow, i gt told i sound like a dead cow ressurecting
U were never able to sing
PreheatedCandy I tried singing after puberty so I don't actually know how it feels 😆
Someone help: when I sing WITH someone or WITH the radio, I'm ALWAYS on pitch. I can sing perfectly and hot every note. BUT when I try to sing ON MY OWN, I'm a half step flat constantly. Just a half step but that half step key is the consistent. Why is this? (When I play with my guitar, it's 50/50)
I hope you find this tutorial interesting and helpful! Let me know what vocal topics you want to see more tutorials on, and also what vocal demonstrations would really get you pumped-up!
Please LIKE and COMMENT! :-)
Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy thanks a lot I'm now better singer thanks I've been struggling with my pitch sometimes I got choked in the middle of a song .but now I can control my voice without any problems Its gradually but I know with your coaching I'll definitely reach there
Good to hear that you are making progress, florence!
I'm not sure what My colo or tone would be in, if I sing low I sound dark, but if I sing in a tone I think in between like Baritone, I think, not sure, no one ever told Me exactly what My range is exactly, but I think some where around that erea. i know one time I covered the Song Serenity, by the band Godsmack, being as a request, but I'm not sure exactly what range Sully Erna sings in, but that song I like a lot, and wish I could sing it better.
Record yourself and listen to it played back. Is it bright? If not, why not?
I did that ...my voice is heavy dark flat .....so lah scale holds the magic with proper practice with patience...right?
DIDNT even watch the vid yet, but I already know there’s going to be a lot of “LaAAaaAAhHhhH”
Rock on!
😂😂😂
Man, that "coming in from behind the note" using the soft palate is such valuable advice. Thanks!
It works really well, Mark!
I haven't watched yet, but recording yourself singing actually does wonders. I used to be very in tune with my voice because I used to record covers. But for like 2 years I just sang to sing, after recording myself again I noticed I was singing with not enough chest voice. Within 10 minutes of fixing it (since I've already learned previously) I sounded 10x better and was more confident in my voice.
Awesome video, great information. But Jesus Christ does your "la" face freaks me out.
3:54 OMG this guy is a good vocal coach but might be crazy...
ParhelionMedia Who me? 👀👀👀
hahhHahqhahq
Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy 😂🤣😂🤣
I like his gusto while singing, expression and all.
Can we just talk about how amazing that slinky impression was though? Lol
Sure. I challenge you to a slinky impersonation duel!
This is true. When in the studio and I'm tracking a singer who is consistently flat, I mute the bass guitar or any low end instrument then he can sing into pitch. Like Ken said dark vocals usually will be flat. Thanks for the "Ping is King!" great advice.
"You weren't born one day singing in perfect pitch."
Some people were. But we don't like those people very much.
Rock on!
Oh my goodness .. you can even mimic the sound a slinky makes! So impressed with your vocal dexterity and mastery! Ken Tamplin is the absolutely the best teacher here in the youtube and his course is awesome!
Ha, ha! I had to simulate that for those who might barely remember that from their childhood! :-)
1:51 Count Dracula laughing haha
😀
i sound like a goat thats falling off a cliff
Some goats are able to maintain their dignity when hopping around on cliffs. It's the ones that fall off that have that plaintive caprino bleat!
i sound like a collection of dying goats that scream at each other while being pulled into a black hole
@@daphinence319 perhaps consider a career in politics....
@@MrBobbymacaroni Hahaha!
I appreciate a comment I can visualize. Thank you Mr.
Best advice! Once I understood that you can basically turn most O's, E's and U's in A's, it not only sounds better, you will also live to sing another day.
Rock on, Timothy!
My teacher always tells me to sing As with mouth opened for O
I love that you actually go through the lesson rather than just giving a snippet with the invitation to purchase the course
I'm glad that you noticed that I am trying to give away as much information as I can. I have spent my life learning these things.
This guy knows his stuff, He is giving so much information out, it amazes me! I know because my mother studied opera many years ago and I took singing lessons when I was younger in New York City. Even though I was one of the LIGHTS ON BROADWAY, that didnt make it big, NEVER SAY NEVER!!!!!
It is very inspirational to see such a great person with such great talent generously giving out great information for free, I would pay any amount of money to get private lessons from Ken Tamplin because I can see he is really unique and can get you started on a singing career fast and easy , Of course, you need discipline and study. I wish I would have known him years ago, when I was trying to break into show business,I I am praising this man because I know how difficult it can be when you want to become a vocalist to get the right teachers that are sincere and really care, and this man is giving out all this basic knowledge to the public and I really appreciate that in this day and age when people are not like that, He is sharing his great success!!! Music was a big thing in my home too , my family was from Naples , Italy, where some of the most beautiful songs in the world are written!!!
Fantastic video as always Ken. Do you think inverting the scale while you are excersing would also help, what I mean is instead of going 1-2-3-2-1; go 3-2-1-2-3? Once again great work!
I cannot thank you enough for your kindness and generosity in sharing your plethora of knowledge in your videos and for all you have given and dedicated to enhancing art through music.
The point about brightness is a huge revelation. I was hesitant of it because I wanted to sound darker, but the technically correct way to get that darkness is from that bright coordination, as Ken points out. Nowhere in fact is ping more important than in opera, as it is what carries the voice unamplified across an entire stadium.
I try to record myself, but my phone sucks and it makes me have a robotvoice XD
Keep working with it. You may figure out how to get better recordings by playing with the distance from the mic and other things through trial and error. Recording your voice is a great way to help yourself improve more quickly.
Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy thx :D
that's wrong :) the phone record is more truthful than you hear it is all. That's how you REALLY sound :)
Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy Yeah distance matters a lot. I record with my phone and I always put the phone close to my guitar sound hole so i can get clean instrumental and I dont have to sing very loudly.
The most hardest thing to sing on pitch for me is to reach high notes I want to reach with head voice, but I have to sustain in a better way my head voice which is too nasal sometimes and weak about sustaining , and try to take a better passagio between chest voice and head voice. But I have to tell you, I recorded almost 85 songs in a year, and when you rest your voice, rest your body and your mind, and doing the right warm up exercices, you reach any goals.
I never knew how much I actually struggled with pitch until I watched this video. My technique was completely wrong. I was always reaching for the notes instead of like Ken said, dropping down on them from behind. Thanks Ken!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but did Freddie Mercury not do the fish tailing he's warning against in the video? His example reminded me of Don't Stop me Now by Queen. If you even listen to Freddie's vocals you can hear it in several songs.
Max Amillion, Mercury does it briefly as a dramatic singing effect, making “ahhh” sounds and not singing words. He doesn’t do it find the correct pitch of a note like an amateur might try to do to cheat into it.
I Wish I lived in your area to have you as my singing guru.... you’re so passionate about what you do and really want the singers you are teaching to be the best.
My course comes to you! kentamplinvocalacademy.com/
there are a LOT of people that need to know this!!! lol. if you can sing in tune, half the battle is won in learning singing!
Yes, it's an important skill, and we all need to work on this from time to time.
Idk why I have a darker/clouded sound or how to fix it. I guess I’ll try and see if these exercises help along with elevating my soft palate more
Rock on!
I love your work, every video I watch of yours it gets me in the mood to sing, and it's a great mood to be in, I can't wait to start your course. In saying that, I'd love to hear you do a Cold Chisel song, being a Aussie myself and I also happen to know Jimmy Barnes. Thank you Ken 😀
Thanks, TheOzflyer, for the comments and for the request!
Did you start the course? if so how's it going. im Aussie too.
I'm not sure if pitch is my problem or not, but I sound good when I blend in with someone else but when I sing by myself not so much. I also know that breathing while singing I need to work on, I can't always hold the note long enough.
Proper diaphragmatic breath support will make your voice sound much better, Barbara.
I started out recently to learn how to sing so I sound like a horse ready to give a birth I'm learning on my own and I think I found a good way to be aware of your own pitch. There's a program "Reaper" you can record your voice and using an autotune plagin you can clearly see whethear you sing sharp, flat or you can make sure you can't sing. My voice naturally gravitates toward F#2 - G2. So my type of voice is baritone, right?
Is the best teacher 👍👍👍)
Glad you think so!
Gosh these videos are great from Ken. I gotta admit when I first saw them in RUclips searches, with the hair and the looks and the song choices, I thought it was going to be one of those I'm a better singer than you videos. Boy was I wrong. Great stuff Ken! Techniques, diet, vitamins, all in a selfless style. Just awesome!
I would really love to see tips on how to arpeggiate, kind a like Christina Aguilera or Jessie J for guys. My arpeggiating sounds like one big glissando.
Also I find in a live performance I tend to sing sharp, but recording I sing on pitch. Any tips for staying on pitch with all that adrenaline?
Another question I have is what are good warm-up exercises prior to a live rock performance?
Peter, my vocal course has tons of arpeggio vocal scales that teach you to better differentiate your notes at all levels of range, on all vowels. Here are some good Rock Warm ups. ruclips.net/video/1llyljAE7rI/видео.html
Ken, you have addressed this - my main issue - better than anyone else on the internet. You are and incredible teacher and great artist! Thank you!
Wow, thanks!
Also what's a good in tune range for singing, I'm used to playing alto sax with a maximum of a ten cent margin of error while playing, and 3 cents while practicing pitch (
You should be as close as you can get, pretty close to what you describe with the sax.
Hello there Ken . Do you give private online lessons to? What do you charge if you don’t mind me asking ?
You can contact my assistant, Zaneta, at ktvahelp@gmail.com for details. Thanks!
Hello, i just found this video. It's my first. My friends says i can't sing even if my life would depended on it but my girlfriend, who actually is a trained singer who sang in a choire who sang for the Swedish King says i've got good range, good potential but no technique. After reading the long thing you wrote about "air compression that builds up in the head" i totally believe that i can learn how to control my voice. I see a few titles i recognize in your videos, i hope i'll learn something from it. And my lady can help me too, i hope! I'll try this out first thing in the morning!
Welcome to the world of learning to sing, SireNahvas! Everybody has to start somewhere! :-)
@siranahvas how did it go for you?
I record a rhythm track on guitar in a multi-track session in Adobe Audition then record an overlay of singing so I can focus on the singing over playing. Helps some but Ken is helping the most in his videos.
Glad to hear my videos have been helpful to you, evilcoyboy!
You are an amazing teacher Ken. Great at explaining and articulating. A lot of my questions are being answered. Thank you for your videos they are super helpful !!
I'm glad the videos are helping you, Maureen!
Great mental advice about coming in from behind the note!. Scooping up to the note has been a beotch of bad habit for me to break. I'm slowly purging this problem from my singing. Ken...another one of your phrases that rings in my head everyday is "a well placed note". You mentioned this during your vibrato videos but I've adopted that mindset to make me more aware of nailing the pitch and avoiding the "scoop". During many of the exercises in your course I will end a scale with a "well placed note" and relax into the light vibrato. Ive got some bad habits to chase down. Thanks for all of your help!
My vocal is quite pitchy, thanks for the tips Ken!
You're welcome, Ash!
Hi Ken. thanks for all of your brilliant lessons/explanations. Appreciation!.. But Geeeez, at 7:03 I was just ejected from my chair :-o
As a professional voice/sound teacher, this action of yours was unexpected!.. haha. Cheers anyway (Y)
I'm from Perú thanks a lot!!!, i find a lot of helpfull things!!!!!
I was singing along to one of my favorite songs in my car. I decided to record it. It sounded good in my head. But absolutely awful when I listened back.
between ken tamplin and steve stine my dreams of making music have become more realistic. these guys give me soo much inspiration. keep up the good work. when i make it to the big time, i'll be sure to credit these two men as my mentors.
Steve has a great approach to making guitar more fun than work. He has an awesome channel. 😊
Great lesson! Ken, I have a question for you, I can't hit higher notes but as far as I know my voice range is E, and I've noticed that diaphragmatic breathing is hard for me i can't do it right. Also, I don't understand how to sing using the head. What would you advise me to do to improve this on my own? Thanks in advance! Been watching your videos and they're so easy to understand, they're not filled with technical terms that most of us are not familiar with.
I am a low talker but when I sing I am whole different person. Maybe my pitch just different people can’t hear me when I talk but when I sing I have really high notes. Well I just don’t like to talking to people maybe or just don’t want to strain my singing voice😂.
Wow. I just realized my mistake. You rock man! I need to come down on the notes. Man I was so.blind.
A week ago my band performed in a more or less big club and it was our first time performing with good sound. First time I heard myself singing live. It was so terrible that I don't want to post videos of my performance. I shredded a lot of good guitar solos, but singing was just disgusting. I sang sometimes half tone lower or higher, so singing was just not connected to music. But while performing it, I thought everything is OK. How??
I wanna sing anime openings lol.
Good stuff… it’s always hilarious when someone is sharp to me, including myself…
Ken, really loving your channel man!! I keep coming back to it. Looking forward to more covers! Would love to hear some more Linkin Park.
Cool, DrillingProductions0! Thanks for the request, and I'm glad you're visiting my channel often! :-)
Hi Ken! Instead of recording myself (because that doesn't bode well with my confidence) I usually play the note on my keyboard, try to sing it back, and use a tuner app on my phone to correct my pitch. Is that something you would advocate against?
Kind regards, Tony
This is a great conversation for the forum, please consider posting there, you'll get great feedback! forum.kentamplinvocalacademy.com/
Related to this, how would I teach someone who isn't singing on pitch but wants to? Like, something basic. I've tried, suggesting to find a song they find easy to sing and like you said, record and listen back. They did but then I didn't know what to tell them next except practice it over and over :/ I'm a perfectionist a bit when it comes to pitch so I just repeat the same part over and over until I hit it right. But it doesn't work for anyone seems like. If you see this comment, I'd like a suggestion, thanks :)
how to sing on pitch -- use autotune, like every other goofball out there performing!!!
you still have to sing somewhat on pitch fool! Otherwise I wouldn't be here
Wath is Pitchsinging (Pechgesang) you can sing amphens Hymfens of Arabic dont try it we havend suffering so much under this sc.. but i say your vote the rigth direction in your way keep on to follow your destiny great Job you do i am tiehet now best wishes from darkland Germany indiet i am at war with my fuckin mobile phone good luck👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I’m from the 90s I remember Slinky’s classic toy 😊
Good one Ken! Very good point about the coloration along with pitch. I sing and play sax and sax players are always fiddling with their mouthpieces and adjusting for coloration. A high baffle mouthpiece is a brighter (less colored) sound. But you are quite right ... if you are out of tune or off pitch then you are out of tune more brightly. Excellent points you make... and the sax is the instrument that is closest to the human voice so many of your techniques cross over into the sax world nicely.
Yes, Joseph! There are so many things about tone and intonation that are common to the saxophone and to the human voice! The breath support is another such area of similarities. It's nice to hear from you. Thanks for commenting! 😊
How can I develop that bright timbral sound?
It's a matter of good cord closure. Getting less air and more tone from our vocal cords by getting them to vibrate together more closelyl 😊
Do you think it's possible that someone who can't sing at all can learn to do it? If you thing it's possible, how much time would it take?
Oh god I’m afraid of recording myself lol
Thanks for this tip and specially showing "false" and "right" ...that helped me a lot :)
I liked the bits when he turned in to the Count from Sesame Street
1 ahahah, 2 ahahah, 3 ahahah.
Every vocalist has that one artist they are prone to because their pitch may be similar.
Mine was Brad Delp.
As we age,we all develop swelling and issues in throat from pushing ourselves in our youth not taking care of vocal health,so I noticed a trick he moved on to retain his open throat technique that, even Ken says is so crucial.(I am guessing it was his reason?)
Brad set his mic stand up high,so his throat was naturally open facing upward to the mic,then he must of found it easier to insentuate his intricate changes with nothing obstructing.
At first I wondered if was due to his band mates being all 6ft 5,like Tom S only they never ended up near his mic so it must of been to retain opened throat..
I tried it and it sure works.
Did you ever hear of such a thing Ken?
Another high quality video, Ken. In your experience how much time should be spent practicing scales and how much practicing songs? Loving the slinky analogy by the way!
Thanks, Guitar! Half and half is good after you have the basics of singing down. In the early stages of learning the basics, you should spend more time on scales and technique, because repeating songs with bad technique isn't that good for you. Learning technique takes a lot of training on scales. Songs can make singing a lot more fun, but so can being able to sing better because you worked out on training scales.
Cool, thanks again, Ken. Very similar to the advice I give to students of mine learning guitar, but as singing ain`t my forte it`s always good to get clarification from a ledge like yourself. :)
Great vid
Thanks so much!
Hey Ken! I've just watched 6 of your RUclips videos in a row and I must say that aside from your engaging charisma, you are very articulate in your demonstrations, your repertoire and in your instruction delivery.
I am 37 yr old (redheaded.. yes that's important) woman from Sydney, Australia.
I've been singing in choirs, school bands and garage bands as a teen and now as an adult I'm re-entering my love for singing again. The first time I knew I needed to sing was when I came to live in Australia from Ireland at the age of 7 and still had my Irish accent. I was sitting with a group of (paid) Irish musos at a pub and they started playing Dublin's Fair City. Without thinking I just started singing and before I knew it the instruments stopped and the entire pub was listening (which was a lot of people back then as it was the 80s on a Sunday afternoon jamming session). I was so lost in the moment that I hadn't noticed until I stopped. The whole place thundered in applause and I'll never forget how that felt. Then I quickly ran away with embarassment. Lol
Now I'm a woman and a mother of 5 boys. I've only now discovered that all these years I've actually had a very big fear of a Capella singing.. maybe since that first time I never thought I could live up to that same level again. I will only sing to backing tracks, instruments and I'm definitely more comfortable with a mic... it's like I magically turn on my voice and without a mic it's invisible (if you get that analogy).
It's in recognising this fear that I've realised I actually have a lack of confidence in my voice underneath my "performer's confidence".
I feel like I'm ripping away all the layers and exposing my vulnerabilities as a singer to become the best at what I love and starting right at the beginning.
Your videos are definitely helping me progress in a way I hadn't allowed myself before.
Thankyou. Xo
Thank you for your thoughtful comments, Amelia. I'm glad you're getting back into it and that my videos are helpful to you.
hmmm, very good video again!
I have an intermittent problem with the pitch "drifting away" from me. I start singing and everything is fine and it's fine and it's fine and it's fine and it's fine and it's fine and then it happens. One note just disobeys and goes sharp or flat and it's too late to bend it back or it won't help!!! It's not that I don't hear it but "something" just happens and sometimes it's at the same note in a song that just won't obey. Or I practice for a while and everything seems fine so I record a verse, a chorus, a verse and then in the next chorus a note just dies ...
What to do???
PPop, I'd have to hear it to be sure, but I think you might be having a problem with inconsistent support. That will throw your notes off easily.
Very very very awesome video, thank you Ken you're helping a lot with all of your videos and your awesome students. If you understand how singing works, you are able to locate faster what are your vocal issues. If you get the time could you do a Roy Orbison cover? Maybe Pretty Woman, and talk a little about his voice and his style, every time I hear him I think to myself:" that's an angel voice"
Roman, thank you for the request! Roy was one of the all-time greats!
very important comments about brightness and darkness and their effect on pitch -- thank you!
You're welcome, Pallas Ferrante!
That was a pretty convincing slinky noise
Can you do one on how to sing like Michael Starr from Steel Panther?
Wyatt, thanks for the request!
of*
this would be awesome! Michael is one of the best in Business and totally underrated, at least here in europe
AlexiasGuitarre- Where do you live in EU?
Totally agree !
Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy any chance coach you could demonstrate a slower tempo rock cover?! Something like Deftones or another AeroSmith or I could hear a great 30 seconds to mars Bury Me cover as well!! And Maybe a video on performance singing?! I am still going through each video so I am not sure if there is one that covers the topic or not. Thank you coach Ken THUNDERSTRUCK!! - Thovan
Thovan Music&Films How's this? ruclips.net/video/lhxc1BayC8g/видео.html
I had my first rehearsal as a singer yesterday for a stoner rock band, and listening to the recordings of the rehearsal was painful. When I go in in my higher register, the notes are quite often off-tune, always a little lower than the note should be...
I hope this will help ! :')
I hope so, too. Make sure you watch my video on Diaphragmatic Support, too! ruclips.net/video/Wv3T-xA28fE/видео.html#t=0
I honestly can't even tell If I'm hitting pitch or not.Even with a recording it's hard to really match my voice up to any sort of pitch. Tone deaf for life.
6:11 sooo scary
I am singing below the note I try to sing ..I cant sing in perfect pitch 😢.can u help ken?

@@kentamplin Thanks Ken
Great advice, thanks--I also got my guitar in tune.
Hey ken i have a question. I m a 15y/o singer and im thinking about buying one of your courses. I really want to increase my vocal range with stuff like mixed voice and get a bit grit in my voice. I had singing lessons for 1 year now and i can do things like breathing and basic stuff. I also explored some technique that lets me get a lot higher in a lower volume but im not sure if i do it right. I usually practice siginf around 1-2 hours a day. I really like matt shadows by the way he is a really good singer in my opinion. Which of your courses woult you recomend?
Great vid by the way
Jvk.15- It really depends on your budget. Take a look at the options: store.kentamplinvocalacademy.com/rock-your-voice-sale/
Can you do a video on Chuck Schuldiner and what do you think of him? If my english sucks im sorry but its not my first languege.
You are awesome, greetings from Germany
JC, Thanks for the request!
Pause at 3:54 and try not to laugh.
I enjoyed the video, thanks so much for these uploads. I'm 28, am gifted with music instruments, but my voice is so raspy and stubborn. I need serious help learning how to sing.
You like my smile? 😀
Totally love your videos! Vocals are practically impossible to teach realative to any other instrument. Atleast with guitar you can say play fret 5 on the high e string or etc. Anyway, much respect to you and thanks for the lessons 😆
Thank you for the kind words, Frankie! Nice to hear your comments!
How should I go about strengthening my chest voice?
I want to sing rock music well
Hi,
My Problem area is RELATIVE PITCH and songs written with Melody Phrases written with Repeat Notes and Near Notes.
For Eg. LOVE byMicheal Buble or Simple Songs like - Rocking Around A Christmas Tree . The only way is to lesrn the song is to download music score and play with piano note for note and visualise the distance between the notes and the pattern of the melody phrases.
I am good with songs written with melodies notes written further apart. Strangelysometimes I can play by ear on the keyboard Repeat Notes and a couple of Near notes but I cant sing it initial few times. In certain songs, I can sing it but unable to play the notes on keyboard by ear.
I have tried downloading Singing Intervals Apps but the more I try the worse I become,
Whats your diagnosis and advise?
kim wan Have you had an opportunity to join my vocal forum? It's a great place to post your singing questions and others can benefit from the reply. Please join, it's free! forum.kentamplinvocalacademy.com/
Usually if I want to sing in a high pitch I sing fast and low pitch I sing slow and that is based on science and sound waves
Ken, The slinky visual is very helpful. I will put it to work. I have been singing for several years and one of the things I find challenging is consistently taking in the air at the right time as not to interrupt my rhythm or sound like I am rushing to catch my breath vs. simply breathing. Do you have a video that touches on this?
Great Mr. Ken Tamplin! Thank you so much for helpful video. You are now like always very clear in everything you explain. I am watching your videos always with the great pleasure. In the past alway by watching you i done so: what i not understood i simply imitate you and with the time i understand your lessons very good. My voice became much better texture too because i got some of your temperament too just by watching and trying what you do by showing how.! Thank you so much!!! Your put your name on Vocal coach and Singer on the first place by me!
Roses1401, I'm glad you're learning by watching and listening! Great t o hear from you!
Can I please know.... I'm a full beginner who is starting from the right beginning... What should I do FIRST? I'm confused? Help me?
Start with my How To Sing for Beginners Playlist on my RUclips channel. ruclips.net/video/ROuosxzuKAs/видео.html
Listen to song... sing same notes. If fail, listen to song again. Try sing same note again. Did you do it? Boom, sir.
the most positive guy on the net...must be all that sun \m/ keep rockin Ken
Thank you, Dieter!
Thanks Coach would you mind making a video on vocal tone because i would love to sing with great tone once again thank you 😀
Gotta say, Great personality man! Question for ya though. I do my own singing off and on, and have tried to find my own voice for years. I'm not a high pitched vocalist by no means, nor can I sing with a ton of power, but very low (deep) and soft. For the most part I have a lot of rasp in my voice and can stay in key. But when I try to push the louder notes just slightly I have a hard time going back to the lower register I was previously in. Example: Lets say I'm in a Cmaj. I can go straight to 2 octaves higher, but can't seem to smoothly go back to the Cmaj again. Anyway, Thanks again man! Great Channel!
It's a matter of training the voice and relying on the muscle-memory gained during that training. You must train the whole voice, for the whole voice to be agile and responsive throughout your range.
I just tried something that works! I've been trying to sing a kareoke song have you ever seen the rain. The pitch is way off which I can tell by recording myself.. But when I sing it without the words and just say, na, na, na, na, i notice a big improvement! I'm going to sign up for your beginner class in few days when I get my stimulus check. I never thought it possible I could sing anything, but now I believe it's within reach!
👍
It's my first try sir i learn indian classical and also sing western..is it okay to listen?...please reply if you can..thank you and you're doing a great job👍
I think David Lynch needs your for 3rd season of Twin Peaks.
Nice lesson though.
I-P37 ahaha omg
If someone were to be not very confident in hearing the tone and their voice and being able to tell if they were sharp or flat. Could they use some sort of pitch measuring instrument to sort of train both their ears and voice?
Yes, there are apps that can show you what note you are on, whether you are sharp or flat, and give you help in developing a sense of pitch-hearing. The goal is to become adept at hearing it naturally, so that you can move on from the app.
