- Mix voice is one of the most complex vocal techniques for most singers to grasp (so if you feel confused about what it is-you’re in good company!), but hopefully after watching this video, you’ll understand it better! In this lesson, you’ll learn about:
What a contemporary mix voice is
What mix voice sounds like
Some of the most common vocal issues singers face
Why your voice flips when you move higher
Why some people can sing in a mix more easily than others
Why you’ll be able to sing in a mix too if you want to!
Plus-make sure to check out the “How to Nail the High Notes in Your Worship Songs” free training: worshipvocalis...!
Used to struggle with mixing my passages notes consistently, but I’ve been practicing my singing more lately, and I feel a sensation of freedom in my voice! It’s beautiful.
Wonderful! Glad to hear it!
Such a great video Charmaine. I have been consistently training my mix voice for many many years and still learn something new about my voice every time I train it. What a complex but wonderful human instrument God has Blessed us all with. Keep up the great work. Absolutely love your content. God Bless🙏😊
Yes what a wonderful Maker we have! Thanks for the encouragement!
Consider a hug from me , you really explained it well
Thanks for the encouragement!
Great video!! Makes so much sense when you break it down this way.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you my teacher
You're welcome!
Thank you for this video! This is the first time I'm hearing about the pharyngeal exercise! I definitely have a small range, I hate the difference in strength when I switch to headvoice. It's so weak. Hope I can learn how to do mix voice and be able to sing higher songs someday!
Yes! Developing a mix is so helpful!
Brilliant resource,thank you so much Charmaine.
You're so welcome!
Thanks, I like the emulsifier analogy.
Glad it was helpful!
Very helpful resource, thank you
You're welcome!
Hi Charmaine Happy New Year 🎊. Thank you for always helping us ❤.
You’re very welcome!
Finally I have found something!) what a wonderful explanation 🌸thank you
Glad it was helpful!
You're awesome! Thanks so much for helping us out. I call you "my worship girl" every time I'm telling my 3 man worship band what we couldn't be doing 🤗 Would you be able to do Champion for us!?
Haha awesome! Perhaps in the future!
Hi Charmaine, thanks for this video..
You’re very welcome!
Great tutorial, thank you! What`s the name of the song you take as example?
There are two different songs I use as examples in this video:
All Hail King Jesus (by Ran Jackson, Peter Mattis, Jeremy Riddle, Steffany Gretzinger)
Battle Belongs (by Brian Johnson, Phil Wickham)
Veeeery encouraging!
Glad to hear it!
That was very clear thank you. The "indy voice" makes a bug the feature and does that yodeling thing. It's getting old.
Great 👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
My vocal coach says I do the mix naturally. It's hard to get into my head voice, I can do it but it takes a moment to mentally get there. My chest voice is quite strong and I have a 3 octave range but my vocal coach said that about my mix and I was like what even is that?!
That's great that you have a natural mix!
Great vid! I find when I'm at church and singing along with the worship I find that my throat gets scratchy not long after or a feeling like a breadcrumb gets stuck there and I start coughing. Is it because of the key they are in? I know they sing a lot in "C" which I find difficult other than a select few songs. My key is definitely "G" or "A" and sometimes "B", but my go to key is "A".
Glad you enjoyed it! It sounds like perhaps you are pushing on your voice too much to get to the higher notes. Yes, it is important to sing in the best key for you, but if someone else is choosing the keys, that's not always possible of course! Perhaps you could sing down the octave, or sing a harmony part!
Is this like “improper belting”?
Hey Shana! Some coaches use the term "belting" interchangeably for "singing in the mix" or achieving those higher notes in a chest-voice-like sound. I prefer the term "mix voice" for our videos because we're focused on healthy cord compression and closure, not in achieving the "scream" or edge that some belting techniques try to develop. 😊
hi i have a song on youtube call the is my shepherd i eont to know if iam in mixed voice

@@worshipvocalist ok now mush is it analysis
Can you tell me if mixed voice is the real voice?
It depends on how one would define "real voice". What we want is for our singing voice to be as authentic to our speaking voice as possible - to use vocal qualities (resonance) that are inherent in our speaking voice. For many people, developing a mix voice does sound like their speaking voice!

I'm a female, but my break is the same as a male's.
Yep, the typical male/female ranges are just a guideline-some female voices land lower where a typical male range is!
Im gonna start using Dijon mustard on my salads, thank you!
LOL! Awesome.
