Thanks...physically it's a way to keep the larynx from coming up so much which is one of the main reasons the voice breaks into falsetto. But you don't want to sing that way. The exercises will help you train the larynx to stay down at the level where it rests when you speak. Eventually you are able to sing without having to impose it down.

Thank you chuck for these great exercises !! I hope to improve my voice soon.

Amazing! My falsetto came back after your exercices! Thank you!

Man, I can't do the light chest-no-chest exercises (they actually hurt), but this one is a piece of cake and feels kind of good!

I love these exercises. How do you play this on the keyboard and guitar? What are the notes?

Love these exercises! It's super hard for me to keep from going into falsetto. When I do the "coo" exercise (10:33), if I keep out of falsetto there's many notes where there's zero sound or there's a bit of a "gritty" sound (not in a painful way, the note just doesn't sound smooth). I'm guessing that will go away with many hours of practice.

The gritty sound is the larynx coming up. Once your able to keep the larynx down, the distortion will leave. You may want to check out these exercises for the high layrnx: www.powertosing.com/pulled-chest-high-larynx-2/

I am going to give these exercises a shot. My goal is to hit the falsetto in Michael Nesmith's "Joann" or at least hit the one high note in "Under the Boardwalk". If you have another video that might help more, please let me know.

Hey Chuck, quick question for you. Should head voice seamlessly connect to chest voice on its own, or do you have to go through mixed voice first to have a smooth transition?

Thanks Jacob! Good question. You have to let chest come in my degrees and so it can help to mix on the way down. It's something you should do in exercises. In songs too if the music lends itself to do that. Either way, try not to slam into chest abruptly.

I love these exercises but how long am I supposed to do this to get the full potential of my voice?

Hi, first of all I want to thank you for your excercises. They are really helpful. I am actually high larynx, high chest. and I came to this video because I can't keep my larynx down going up while doing the dopey gee.

Yep. Me too.

I hope you do reply (THIS IS LONG) I am 17 years old, male. I've been singing since 5 but stop before my teens. I had very feminine voice when I was child but now my voice turned into weird somewhat gayish. I was so shocked to hear my voice last year when I recorded it. I'm actually interested in music production and wanted to use my voice to record some songs but unfortunately my voice doesn't want to cooperate even with the use of Melodyne (although I sounded better w/ reverb but still bad). So I've searched anything about singing then I learned about some flaws with my voice. I have a vocal range of F2-Eb4-F#5. I am comfortable singing F2- until all the 3rd octave notes. My problem is I'm always singing 1 octave lower than the actual song. Example: A pop song starts at C4 then E4-F#4-A4-Eb5. I'll sing it C3-E3-F#3-A3-Eb4 or sometimes I flip into falsetto at A so C3-E3-A4-Eb5. Singing it in falsetto helped me reached the actual note BUT there is a freakin' disconnect. My falsetto is very soft, weak, somewhat feminine; probably similar to Charlie Puth but 5x worse (just imagine) while my modal voice is like a teenage boy would sound like, low enough to identify I'm a boy but still have that 'highness' which identifies me that I'm not a grown man yet. My voice is incomparable to any singers that I know, very weird to be honest. I guess I would say, my voice is darker than Justin Bieber. Back to the "singing 1 octave lower" issue, I have problems doing the exercises because it starts at G3. I can't sing a G scale if my modal voice can reach Eb4 only. I can't flip into falsetto at D4 because my larynx is very high and when I'm hitting D4 in falsetto it is in neutral position. For example, I did bubble lips startin' at G3 so G3-A3-B3-C4-D4-C5/C#5/D5. That's what happening. I think at C#4 is the start where I raise my larynx. Problem number 2 is my nasality. The lower my chest voice, the nasal I get. The higher my chest voice, the more nasal I get. The lower my falsetto, the nasal I get. F2-A2 I think is where I'm nasal and very low larynx, sometimes every time I sing it's just nasal, B3-Eb4 is where I'm nasal as well, E4-F#3 is where I'm nasal in falsetto and getting airy to no voice. Problem number 3 is I have disconnect. I think the reason is that because I can't mix. I've trying to do bubble lips ascending to Eb4 in chest voice and ascending+descending in falsetto but no mix is happening. Problem number 4 is the larynx position. I tried to sing C4 in CV and compare it in C5 in falsetto up to Eb4 and Eb5; I noticed that my larynx position is almost same but kinda strains in CV but in falsetto, effortless. I'm trying to emulate the way I do C5 in hitting C4 but it seems that my mouth and tongue are stiff and have tension. My mouth opens more in C5 compared in C4 in CV. If I'm opening more I get sharp or nasal. Based from that logic, is it possible that I can reach F#4 in CV? On the other hand, I think my voice improved for like 2% since last year (lol). Last year I can't reach C#4 in chest voice, E5-F#5 in falsetto, E4-F3 low notes in falsetto. My voice usually break when flipping into falsetto but now it breaks only when my voice is hoarse. I can't sing some words in falsetto but now I can (but some words still I can't). My question is that how can I mix my voice? Should I work on raising my chest voice or lowering my falsetto. I tried both and very difficult. I strain at chest voice and at falsetto I lower my larynx and sometimes no voice coming out. And other advice?

You aren't used to it....like going to the gym the first few weeks, or after a layoff. But it might also be because you are doing them harder or louder than needed. Don't do them quite so hard. Over a week or so of consistency you should feel less fatigue. Also...no need to go longer than 20-30 minutes. Sometimes students think if they practice 1-2 hours at a time it will speed up their progress. It's more important to do them as demonstrated than how long you do them.

Use dopy gee or bratty ney or "no's" instead of the words. When they work, then try it with the words. Go back and forth until you are able to do it with the song. This is one way of transitioning to singing.

edong edong You have encountered diplophonia. This happens when the falsetto becomes strained from an overly high larynx. The train whistle sound is made by the false ventricular folds, which have been unintentionally trained to vibrate with the true folds. That is essentially an overcompression. Because falsetto accounts for half of mixed voice, attempting to sing in mix will sound distorted. I had the same problem, but dopey GEE and GOO has almost completely fixed it because when you lower your larynx, you also widen your pharynx, tugging the false folds away from each other. To that end, since twang is produced in the pharynx, the distortion disappears once the true folds can be stetched without pulling up the larynx beyond what is needed for a clear, strong tone.

Thanks Chuck. This has been really helpful. I tried this shit for about 5 months and can say I mamaged it. I still dont really nice in my mix but Im so fucking proud, that I can go into it without cracking now. This is for all of you who are struggeling with their mix: you will get it. The last 5 months were very frustrating for me, but I can only say keep practicing. It looks like I had much problems with this and were able to do it, so everybody can. :D

The only way I can make my larynx stay down on high notes is through feeling tension under the lower jaw. Is that normal?

@PowerToSing

2 жыл бұрын

Adding the dumb or dopy sound will activate muscles below the larynx and pulls it lower. If you are getting the larynx down that way, you are doing it ok. If the larynx is not coming down and you have muscles activate under your jaw (above your larynx) it's likely you are not doing it write.

Chuck, I have been doing this exercise for 4 days now and whenever I do it my jaw hurts because I am maintaining the dopey sound. Am I doing it right or wrong?

It's not the loudness nor the force that makes the biggest difference. The exercises for flip-falsetto vocal type train the larynx to stay down (a chief cause of flipping into falsetto) and they help you keep the vocal cords adducted through the bridge so you don't break. Develop the right coordination with these exercises and your voice will become strong.

I'm confused good sir! You describe the dopey sound as "hooty" on higher notes. I believe I'm doing this correctly but it feels so similar to the falsetto sensation in my throat, only more connected and resonant. How do I know I'm not just putting more power into my falsetto, or is this powerful falsetto feeling what mix/head voice is supposed to be essentially??

@PowerToSing

3 жыл бұрын

When you sing the dumb sound, and allow it to go hooty on the higher notes, the muscle in the vocal cord is staying engaged. But because it resonates in the same place as falsetto, we get confused with that feeling and we think we disconnected into falsetto. In actuality, it is head voice. And it's very likely more powerful to your listeners than you are hearing yourself inside your head. It is head voice because the muscle is staying engaged from bottom to top and back down again.

I would have to hear what you are doing to really get to the bottom of what's happening. But if you are flipping it's because the larynx is rising...even when doing the exercises.

When I have a student who is so muscled up that they can't get into head voice, I will help them break into falsetto. You may find it helpful to sing a 1-3-5-8 Octave repeat scale where you sing up the scale on a very narrow vowel like Koo and hit the Koo kind of hard it will help you break into falsetto. Maybe it would also help you recover the falsetto when it gets weaker and weaker. Perhaps it's worth a try. Good luck Moggiee1!

+Power To Sing Many thanks for your kind help, I look forward to trying out your suggestion. My main concern with my poor falsetto is about overall vocal tone and strength - do you think it might improve my voice in other areas if I could develop it more? Just one other thing I'd like to mention; my falsetto was fine in my early-mid teenage years, but I misused my voice singing incorrectly in a busy working band in my late teens when I practically 'lost' my falsetto. Although I've tried I've never found a way of getting it back. Many thanks again for your help :)

+moggiee1 Moggiee1 without hearing your voice, I'm not really able to say specifically what will be best for your individual voice. Generally speaking, your voice develops and improves working with the chest voice, the middle area and the head voice. The falsetto or disconnected voice won't contribute to the overall quality or health of your connected voice because the vocal cord are disconnected. It's possible that you could have damaged your vocal cords singing in the band. Have you had a doctor who specializes in vocal cords look at your vocal cords to see if they are healthy?

just a question, how does the dopey sound help in normal singing? i mean you cant always sound dopey right? does this exercise ingrain the habit of keeping your larynx neutral?

@PowerToSing

Great questions. The dopey sound does help retrain the larynx to stay down when singing. But we want to discard the dopey sound as soon as we can get through to head voice without difficulty. We don't want to sing with anything added to our voices. But it's useful in a vocal workout. Thanks.

I have a huge issue after I pass F#4 with the "Gees". Scratch that, it's with every warmup. It's kinda like a voice break, but it doesn't feel like I'm flipping to falsetto. However, everything sounds like falsetto; the initial sound, the puffs of air, the extremely unstable pitch (and I'm rarely off pitch.) It even simulates a "vocal chord separation." But I compared the sound to my normal falsetto at around G4 and it seems compleltely different tone-wise. A bit darker, not as light, but still very airy. I don't know what it is... and if it is my head voice, why does it sound so bad?🤦🏿‍♂️ For perspective, I'm sixteen and I do sing with mixed voice, I don't feel any pulling or tension when I sing up to F#4.
