Re: Can I build my mix faster?
@Jonnyzr I understand you want results to come sooner. There's no shortcuts to learning to sing well.
Focus first on building a powerful chest voice. If you skip ahead especially without guided instruction to make sure your head voice is built as it should be you will miss fundamentals that will cause more issues later.
Following step by step is essential.

Re: Feedback on sliders to build head voice
@ClearwaterBeach53
Great advice from @Terence as always!
Remember the moderators are here to moderate. It would be brilliant if you could pitch in on answering others’ posts as well.
If we had 10 active posters, I reckon things could grow quickly!

Re: Being a frontman/frontwoman - what does it take to be a good one?
My prospective band in still in the jamming-phase since we want to improve our respective skills before we try launch ourselves, so I don't really have hands-on experience to draw from here. With that said however, my own theory is always rooted in the belief that music is a conversation. The type of music you play and the image you project will, whether you like it or not, inevitably define what your crowd will be like (or if there will be one).
And although it's not exactly fair, the singer/front-person still remains the main focal point and face of the band outwards, so you need to look the part and act accordingly (obviously without ever letting style dominate over substance).
Another thing that has always struck me is that the big frontmen in a classic sense like Freddie, Plant, Daltrey, Bono, Jagger etc. - none of them generally had an instrument in their hands for prolonged periods on stage, even though I would assume they are all capable (Freddie obviously did some ballads on piano, but most of the time he was on the mic working the crowds).

Re: Maybe we need to go back.
I totally get what you mean. It’s wild how the vocal coaching scene has changed, right? It feels like nowadays, there’s more focus on putting others down than actually supporting each other, which can be discouraging. I’ve been into music for a while and have always tried to stay focused on my own growth, even though it’s easy to get caught up in comparing myself to others. Like you, I believe patience and respect go a long way in improving, whether you’re working on your pitch or expanding your range. I think sticking to what feels right for you, like KTVA, is the best way to avoid all the drama and just keep improving at your own pace.

Re: Uncomfortable voice placement
hi, i seen this hasn't been answered in a good while, maybe nobody else recognized the feeling. i don't, but i work indoors and talk a lot at work, so cannot relate myself. i guess you could do some lip rolls/scales during the day to prevent this? or, come home and do a warmup to release the voice? have you tried this?
