  1. Sorry for late response. This is me singing cemetary gates using chest in verse followed by half chest / head https://app.box.com/s/kddoaxg1bntq8c7gfvcx This is me singing the same but with mainly chest and one or two head voice notes https://app.box.com/s/kgexqclgxsxu96hmyidt and finally, just for laughs, is me singing innocence faded in mainly head with the occasional chest note. https://app.box.com/s/8g8y01skv2dhx2p58fkq As you can hear, theres a massive difference in tone between the chest and head, hence why I think its reinforced falsetto. So you guys think its definitely a sort of "full voice"? I'll ask Sil about those things you mentioned. I'm excited to start lessons again, guess I have to keep practicing! Dave
  2. Hi guys, will post up a link in a minute, I uploaded them to box but theyre still .wma? https://app.box.com/s/7py0bmbjl717wg06ir9z https://app.box.com/s/edrnf3gas3n4tl2sl2nq if this doesnt work i'll convert to mp3. Hi Robert, My teacher is Sil - great teacher has helped my chest voice immensely and opened up the new voice I have. No complaints at all (in fact praise) but would love to be able to use my head voice as it sounds a bit cartoony at the moment. I am slightly impatient but I understand the value of progress and hard work; am i to understand this will take a few years before i can use my head voice in a performance setting? the gums and gugs come from me googling; I have the sort of personallity which when I have a hobby, I like to get all the info I can. If this is holding me back, I can stop it! Not sure what the foundation building routine is... would it be the sirens, onsets etc? many thanks all for your replies Dave
  3. Ah, I'm not sure why its not working, works for me :-s - is there any other service you can recomend to host clips of me singing? I have the raise the voice book by Jaime Vendera and it says not to swell my falsetto (which I think I'm doing? Its the sort of sound you make when you sing a G5... but brought down an octave). The sound between my chest voice and "head voice" is night and day at the moment. thanks.
  4. Hello all, I have been having lessons under a TVS teacher since October or November of last year, with breaks in between due to holidays / sickness. I have some questions about my head voice. It currently sounds like the tone described as "reinforced falsetto". I have been messing around with changing the vowels and singing GUM / GUGs in the head voice as well as working on twang. I find when I twang it, it gets louder, but it still does not have the overtones which chest voice has (not even close). What should I do to make it stronger? (obviously I will continue to go to my lessons but is there anything I can do to hasten it along?). I wouldn't characteristic it as a soft falsetto, as I can make it REALLY loud. here are two links for you to hear: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/88391/A%20and%20Uh.wma https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/88391/tonexamples.wma there is some constriction in the above examples as I'm just about recovered from sickness. the twang example isn't very good... will record another one. I would love to sound like tone wise, like old James Labrie :-p Thanks Dave
