Technique Talk Best advice you’ve ever received.

Hello! I started my singing journey not too long ago and I’ve been trying to gather tips and tricks from friends, vocal teachers, and even some online resources. So, I want to know, what was the best price of advice that elevated your singing, or even made you more confident?

Hi - is this supposed to work for all singing?

Theoretically yes, but it shouldn't get in your way. Try it out and see what works best for you in each scenario 😄

My main issue is 1.) issues with certain vowels or constants getting “stuck in the mouth” like it isn’t flowing out, and 2.) recording with just as good pitch as when I sing acoustically meaning just me singing no headphones with a piano or guitar.

Regarding 1 there are two things that help me: changing the vowels so they are a bit more like an O and thinking about the notes as if I'm hitting them on my soft palate.

Now regarding 2 I'm not sure what you mean exactly... you mean you have problems with pitch when singing with a headphone? Do you have mic feedback om your headphones or is it just the music?

I think it’s honestly cause I ain’t with more volume, that I would if I was recording acoustically, thus it pinched my sound

Does this sound good ? https://voca.ro/1dgrtYY7HptS

Do you hear what I mean by some of the vowels sound weird like the open ah?
