TMV World Legacy Member Simpan24 Posted September 21, 2015 TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted September 21, 2015 Hello everyone!I have started a new program from eli prinsen called hvt master series. Really great program i can recomend it to rock/metal singers. I am starting to train the technique of thinning out the chest voice instead of going to falsetto or head voice on the higher notes. I am still training and it will probably take a long time before i get there. But the problem is our band has a show on saturday and in that song there is a high note B4 which i cant really hit. I want it to sound as clean as possible but it turns out sounding very distorted. Almost like Chris Cornell.Any tips because i have struggled with that note for months now?

TMV World Legacy Member MDEW Posted September 22, 2015 TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted September 22, 2015 It would be helpful for you to post a sample of you singing the song.......... There are elements that can only be determined by hearing how YOU approach the note.Basic factors are Support, Resonance, Vowel, larynx position. Record the song the way you sing it with the band. The words being sung can influence how to sing them........Some consonants and vowels promote good airflow and stability and some hinder airflow and stability.

Felipe Carvalho Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 Cant you change the key or the melody?This kind of thing hardly will be solved in 5 days... Just saying, not a wise thing to do to bring something you dont feel secure about to stage. The audience want you to succeed, not to try to sing B4s or some other note you have a problem with. GL!

TMV World Legacy Member Gneetapp Posted September 23, 2015 TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted September 23, 2015 Hi Simpan24, it sounds like you are yelling/shouting instead of singing. You need to make several micro adjustments in your vocal tract to be able to transition to a B4, especially stepping off the gas pedal and following resonance. Because you are not making the adjustments you are hitting a ceiling and choking. I think it is very common in male voices (untrained), as I too have struggled with the same problem, until I learned to overcome my passaggio. Good thing you are training with a method already. But I don't think you can learn and "master" this coordination in such a short time, as you also need to built the muscles. Of course, I may be completely mistaken, as I'm not a vocal teacher or an advanced vocal student. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
