Secrets to Improve Your Singing Tone

One of the most important skills to acquire from any vocal lesson is how to create good tone when singing. It’s an important skill no matter the gender of the performer or the genre they perform. But… what is good tone and how do you get it?

Acquiring this ability includes a few basic steps to improve your voice

1. Relaxation when singing is very important. A tense singer will have a weak resonance and tone in their voice. Relaxing also inhibits the tendency to strain when attempting to hit notes at the edge or your natural range.

2. Breathing is another key factor to getting good tone. Babies breathe properly, as only their stomachs move during the intake and release of the breath. As adults we often need to relearn this method of breathing, so practice taking in and releasing your breath with a minimum of movement from your chest and shoulders. But don’t get yourself knotted up trying to “do it right!” Sometimes just suck down a big pile of air and don’t worry about how you’re doing it. I see too many singers holding their breath or hardly inhaling at all.

3. Develop consistent vocal warm-up techniques. Humming is suggested as a method to warm up the muscles your body will use while singing.

4. Study your role models. Copy their performances. Imitate their voices. Do this with enough artists and eventually you won’t remember what belongs to whom. Then just go for it without thinking and see what shows up.

5. Experiment with different types of music, and different performance styles. Find one that you are comfortable with and that allows you to stay relaxed and breathe properly. If a highly active performance style leaves you short of breath, get into the gym for god sakes!

6. Track your progress. Record yourself singing (you will be surprised at how different you sound at first!). Doing this once a month will help you detect areas of weakness you can improve and areas of strength to draw upon during a performance.

7. Learn how to care for your voice. Avoid straining your vocal cords by yelling or screaming. Drink plenty of fluids, at least 64 fluid ounces of water a day to keep your vocal cords hydrated, but avoid dairy as they produce mucous which will make it hard to keep your throat clear. Smoking or being around smokers for extended periods of time should also be avoided. The chemicals in a cigarette can be damaging to vocal cords.

8. Lastly, you must join vocal Classes to improve your voice and for perfect training.

What Is A Keyboard Player

Most people who begin to play keyboards do so after taking piano lessons. You might have put in years of practice, have a ton of technical ability and be a great sightreader. “A keyboard’s just a piano that feels cheaply made and has many different sounds; how hard can it be?”, you might think. While you can attempt to play any sound with a piano-like technique, if you listen to what you’re playing with a critical ear, you’ll realize it just won’t sound right; it’s not how a good keyboard player would play.

If that’s where you are right now, you’re more of a pianist who happens to be playing a keyboard than a keyboard player. However, if you want to actually become a good keyboard player, you need to break out of the pianist mentality, and the goal of this site is to help you do so. If we had to pick only two words to describe what being a keyboard player is, they’d be “variety” and “utility”. Keyboards have variety in both sound choices and playing styles. Each type of sound has one (or more!) ways in which you can play it and sound natural and real. You can’t play sustained chords, using a sustain pedal, using an orchestral string section sound. On a piano, the sound eventually dies out, even with sustain; on a violin, as long as the player keeps the bow moving over the string, the note can sound forever. A B3 organ has no way of sustaining notes whatsoever, besides keeping your fingers on the keys, and there are various playing techniques that you’d never use on a piano that will make a B3 patch shine. Even an electric piano like a Rhodes should be approached differently on a keyboard; the instrument has a style of its own, closely related to a piano but different. Being a good keyboard player means taking the time to understand and master this variety in sounds and playing techniques.

keyboards are more versatile than other band instruments, If a lead line just doesn’t sound quite right on an electric guitar, we can take it over. If there’s a quiet moment in the song, we can play a pad to keep things together while the other instruments rest. If there’s no one really driving the rhythm harmonically, we can play punchy piano or EP parts. We can find the thing that no one else is doing and do it.

“Being a good keyboard player means choosing the right sound at the right time to complement the band, and play that sound in the right way”

Never quit learning. This is one of most loved bits of exhortation. The quality you pick up as an artist becomes exponentially with the more you think about your instrument.

Practice, hone, rehearse. There is not a viable alternative for legitimate practice. Without practice, you won't get much of anywhere. Rehearse in little nibble measured pieces.
