![]() ![]() They could be really good further down the line.Īt some point Arnold says: remember to breathe. Some of the exercises actually feel good, like those starting with NG or G sounds. That should be in the very first time he asks to do lip trills. How to do the lip trills is explained here in a very helpful way, actually. Technical guidance: there's a mix of good and not so good here. There are apparently new exercises coming up. Two exercises in total you can warm up with. Then the third and forth are warm up exercises. They don’t warm you up across the range, but they are short and only repeat once. The first 2 exercises are more like an accuracy test than a vocal warm up. It went up pretty high, so If you have a certain voice type which doesn’t go all the way up I suppose that will lower your score even further. I sang the most advanced exercise accurately and only got 42%. Also sometimes it decided that my voice jumped an octave down, which was definitely not the case. Singing in a straight tone helped the score, but one should know how to do that without straining. It was very discouraging seeing the “needle” showing my vibrato as if I sing out of tune. ![]() That is not motivating at all! When following the exercise rather well I still only got 87%. They will lower your grade for singing an inaccurate length of the note or if you have vibrato. The biggest bummer is: they will grade you from the first second, so it’s very hard to get a good score. You are expected to sing simultaneously, without a demonstration. No staff with music written, so no way to know what the exercise is in advance. He has not heard my sickly caterwauling in horrifying four-part disharmony.They show you on the scale (note name only) lines of different lengths, and play the exercise for you. "Because it's fun, even if you suck!" he told me. I asked Ethan Clare, who had posted a really good video of himself singing "Wanna Be a Baller" by Lil' Troy, why he likes the app. It's simple to use, but BYO singing skills (I made one that works in the sense of being several voices playing simultaneously, but not in the sense of being identifiable to any living human as "music"). It allows you to take several videos of yourself, stacking the first videos over the next so you can sing over your own backing vocals, until you become an a cappella troupe of one. Launched just six weeks ago, the app has been an instant hit with young people. And if you haven't seen one yet, get ready for a songbook. Have you seen those multilayered, almost Brady Bunch–looking, videos of people singing and accompanying themselves? That's from an app called Acapella, and its parent company just announced a $1 million round of seed funding today. ![]()
