Can i post somehow voice message like on messenger or how can i post video from my phone gallery?

Hi @Ilija,

I am not sure but I guess that there is an app from soundcloud.com (iPhone + Android). You are allowed to upload up to 3 hours of audio content for free. And you can post the link to the audio upload here very easy.

Hope that helps.

I just tried ... if you wanna upload you must to do it with the desktop browser...Until i buy a new PC...
I wanted to upload me doing scales...i know it is complicated to just say what is the problem without hearing them...But nothing special when i ascend up the scale it sound i'm straining like a have mass and the sound is to big and it's where the first vowel modification is happening around F4 from A to "AO" wider A like "Love" and i don't know how can i work my way in and thin it out...
So if somebody can help me blindly like this...Thank him so much 😀

Hi @Ilija,

okay, from your answer I can guess you are male and a baritone. It would be very normal to have to use a vowel modification to be able to sing higher. Here at KTVA we would say you should go "aw" like "loft "to get rid of the sound pressure. Ken has a very cool video (PLATINUM INFORMATION) on vowel modifications. It was a livestream he produced. I really would recommend this to you:

Hope that helps.

PS.: But don't forget that some things take time when learning Singing. Give your voice the time to grow. A video I very often recommend is this - because it is very effective:

Thanks man but i was Ilija from the vocal range part of the comunication A1-F5
Primi passagio:Eb4-F4
Secundo passagio:B4-C5
You said me i'm a high tenor...If you believe me every day before i start to sing i watch this 2 videos and couple more especialy this "Daily vocal exercises" .

Hi @Ilija,

sorry, you are right. Sometimes I struggle with the nomenclature of the ranges because I am german. We have a different nomenclature here in Germany. In Germany we would call a C5 a c'''. Sometimes it is not so easy to translate this into the angloamerican nomenclature. Please forgive me. So, yes, you would still be judged a high tenor.

But you have to help me with your question. What are you actually asking for?

@Ilija , maybe this would be helpful (I don't have a smartphone, so I can't try it myself, but I just looked up this method, hope it works for you):

it won't support video though. I'd say uploading to Youtube should work from a smartphone?

judging blindly is a bit tricky so hopefully you can post something.

best, Klaus

@doc_ramadani
No problem Doc...thank you so much for help...i will tell you in details...
I'm exercising with low larynx and when i ascend the scale i dont know how to make the sound thinner and it sound to big and massive so i get stuck on one note...I watched Ken's live stream on vowel modification couple times and i still don't know how to apply them so i can ascend without straining...I can't apply even the first one from A to AO like "loft" and the others i don't even want to start 😀... I also tried to bring the sound in to the mask but still it sound's the same...
Should i go into the normal larynx position onto the first vowel modification?
I didn't got the feeling for the low larynx yet?


@Klaus_T
Thanks man...I will try and if i succed you will see the video and the problem i have ...

Ilija 😀

Listen to scales.mp3 by Ilija Đorđević #np on #SoundCloud


I think i made it
@doc_ramadani
@Klaus_T
Solution was finding the version from 2015...
This is the problem i was talking about that vowel switch from A to "loft" ...like i can not go higher than F#4 and i'm high tenor???

You're going off pitch. Try to do it next to Ken next time and record yourself along with him so it's easier to evaluate. So from what I can hear your changing the vowel sound way too much. You're doing too much OH. Try to keep the LAH brightness. Whe. You go more of a '' loft'' sound try to modify it in a way to where the change is not radical but more subtle. And that' s about what I can say in the non student area.
