      @@secandamenshouse1333 he was probably a high baritone, baritenor or failing that a low tenor, some of the things that give him away as a baritone in the hypothetical case that he is is the fact that live he reached notes like G2 that are typical of a baritone and that a tenor could not reach them with that consistency, body or volume, PS: I apologize very much for my English, use the stupid translator :)

    • @kibibu
      @kibibu 11 місяців тому +3

      Layne Staley is my favourite singer, but this comment is nonsense.
      108 keys = 9 octaves. Assuming a 12-tone octave, the lowest note on a 108 key piano with a highest note of G5 would be G(-4), with a frequency of 1.531 Hz. Bass stops being an auditory phenomenon somewhere around 20 Hz.
      To construct a piano that goes this low, assuming standard density wound piano strings and a frankly absurd string length of 5 metres, string tension of 50kg (roughly standard piano tension), the string would need to be 2cm (that's just under an inch) in diameter.

    for example im a bass i wake up a bass i talk in the first octave and i sing there too im a bass
    but i can sing in the 6th octave
    does that suddenly make me a soprano? it shouldnt cos im a fucking bass but yeah sure have the baritone v tenor debate we all know hes a baritone
    cos thats what he was most comfortable being that was his speaking and singing voice cos that was his voice hes a baritone regardless of how high he can push himself to sing
