Answer 9

Vocal coaches ( if you can afford one ) or just practice. Don't try and belt out, just sing Do-Do at a comfortable pitch and loudness and once you feel comfortable, gently incline the loudness of your voice and the pitch. It's never good to overexert yourself.

Answer 24

Hey, you're looking to improve your singing?

These exercises and vocal warm-ups should take about 1 hour 30 minutes.

These are general functions of the voice. You should only do the exercises that feel beneficial too you!
BEFORE SINGING
You should also drink lemon juice and water. When you sing you put pressure on your throat, and because of the strain it will produce spit and moisture in the throat. You don't want that because it chops your voice up, so drink lemon juice because it coats your throat so it can't build up moisture. Remember that lemon juice is an acidic, and you shouldn't let it touch your teeth to often because it can damage the enamel. Just squirt it in the back of your throat and swallow.

WANT TO SING A SONG BETTER INSTANTLY?
Ok, here’s a vocal scale exercise that will get you off to a flying start!
Firstly you need to find a song that you know and enjoy singing. Go get it now.

Got it?

Great!

Now, you need to sing this song, except instead of singing the words, replace them with the word “mom”.

That’s right! I know it sounds a little silly singing, “mom mom mom”, but practicing this will eventually allow you to hit every note perfectly.

Here’s an experiment you can try.

Sing your song through once, and write down the difficulty that you felt when you sung it. Pay special attention to the hard bits. Maybe even give the song a difficulty rating out of ten.

Now, sing the song through three times using just the word “mom”.

Feel how tension begins to drop off, being replaced with a more relaxed sensation.

After this, sing the song again normally. Note the difficulty rating.

Not bad hey?

Much easier!

You can do this vocal scale exercise with any word with a “closed vowel” sound. Once you have mastered the “closed” words, you can try doing the exercise with more “open” sounding words.

Here’s some words to get you started.

Mom, Nay, No, Go, Gug.
All these words have a very closed sound. Experiment and find out which is easiest for you. Once you have your favorite, take a few songs and replace the words with your chosen word.

Learning to sing really well is about repeating “successful singing”. Using these words will put your voice in a “success” state. Use this technique and you are building your voice on a correct foundation. Muscle memory will develop and you will find that singing will become much easier.

DAILY SINGING AND EXERCISE ROUTINE
Here is my daily vocal routine. Remember that the exercises given are very general and do not apply to everyone. If you feel any pain or discomfort please stop performing the exercise and move on to the next one or risk permanent damage to your vocal chords. Here we go!

Warm-ups
..::Make an “a,” sound on a ascending and descending scale::..
. .::Make an “e,” sound on a ascending and descending scale::..
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Falsetto exercise:
..::½ Make three “oohw,” sounds on the same scale ascending::..
..::½ On that same scale descend three “oohw,” sounds::..
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Falsetto to full voice:
..::Make the same “oohw,” sound and join it up with an, “Ah.” :..
..::The above exercise will be descending from “oohw,” -- “ah.”::..
--
..::Make an, “a” vowel sound on a perfect fit descending octaves::..
--
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chest Voice:
..::Make three vowel sounds on the same octave: “E,” “A,” and “O,”::..
--
..::On the “a.” we started with in the warm-up section, ascend and descend a scale::..


Part: 2
Perform the:
Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, Fa, Mi, Re, Do exercise three times.

Part: 3, Increasing Vocal Range:
To Increase Your Vocal Range You Need To Do The Following Exercise On Scales:
1.Humming On Scales
2.Bah Bah Bah On Scales
3.Me Me Me On Scales
4.Loh Loh Loh On Scales
--
(Do not worry if you cannot complete the scale. Many greater performers don’t struggle with completing the scale and still sing great! Just go as far as you can and progress slowly.)

Additional tips:
The larynx, commonly known as the “voice box”, houses your vocal cords. Keeping your larynx neutral when singing is one of the most important things you can do. For most people, the resting position of the larynx is its neutral position. To find your larynx, simply follow these steps:
1) Take your finger, press the flat side under your chin and run it down your neck.
2) When the feel the bump in your neck (for guys it is easy (Adam’s apple), girls a little tougher), congratulations! You have found your larynx!
Now I just want you to imagine your larynx rising in your throat. Swallow for a moment and feel it rise. See how far up in your throat it is? When your larynx rises, it constricts the vocal cords and cuts off a lot of resonance space for your sound. What you end up with: tension, and a lot of it.

In fact, I would muse to say that this is the most common cause of tension when people try to sing high notes. Their larynx rises high because it falsely gives the “feeling” that it will make the high notes easier. You then discover that it just plain hurts to sing the notes. You also begin to wonder why you feel like there is a lump in your throat. Guess what? There is a lump in your throat – your larynx!
In order to neutralize your larynx, you must train your larynx. What I personally have to do is place my finger on top of my Adam’s apple when it is in the resting position. Then, when I go to sing, I make sure that my larynx does not rise above my finger. Warning: it sounds much easier than it actually is. If you have never worked on neutralizing your larynx before, this little trick may be difficult at first. But no worries, with time and training, you will have your larynx in a neutral state in no time!
Exercises that help keep your larynx neutral are “mum”, “buh”, and “guh”. Be sure to keep a dopey sound underneath your tone as you practice them on scales. Singing these phrases automatically lowers your larynx. Be sure to place your finger on top of your Adam’s apple when doing these exercises as well.
It will take time to train your larynx to stay neutral when singing. However, if you really focus and take the time to intentionally train, you can speed up the process dramatically.
When you have successfully trained your larynx to stay neutral, you will notice a freedom in the voice that you had not felt before. Less tension. More power. Isn’t this what every singer desires?
As always, sing on my friends!


1) Speak, at high volume, the syllable "eh." While you do this, raise your tongue on each side. Your tongue will touch your teeth, your upper molars. Do this a few times.



2) Now sing the "eh" in your upper range, but not too high up. Hold the note. Do this at an increasing level of effort, say from four to six to eight. Don't forget to keep your tongue arched. Practice this regularly.

Answer 25

Pickle Juice, egg yolks and yogurt of anykind. :)
