I can make all the sounds, but maintaining a feminine tone is still pretty hit-or-miss. Since I spend all day at work talking to my team online, I figured it would be good to use that time for voice practice. (I’m already out, so hopefully they won’t think I’m going insane)
I’ve been slowly pushing the pitch up over the past few weeks to avoid straining, and with a pitch tracker going it looks like I’m sitting at around 150 Hz right now (for reference I usually aim for 200 Hz when training, which I can comfortably manage for short periods). Not quite target pitch, but at least I’m not dropping out of the androgynous range too often. End-of-day huskiness is slowly getting better but my resonance is all over the place.
Anyway, how do you all get your practice hours in? Any fun anecdotes? I’m still in awe of all the trans women on Youtube with perfectly passable voices.
I practiced in the shower and in the car when I did it - I wasn’t out and didn’t have many safe spaces.
Are you focusing on resonance at all? It’s generally more important than pitch. Focus on raising your resonance, and pitch will follow.
Also, if anyone is interested in starting a discord to practice voice training, please invite me!
Yeah, I can control resonance but if I don’t concentrate the finer points (tongue, lips, sharpness etc) tend to drift back to my old voice.
A practice space sounds fun!
I would be interested if it wasn’t in discord but something more secure
Discord has e2ee in its voice and video calls now based on MLS, so if that is all you use it for then that would be plenty secure.
i doubt it would be used like that, discord servers tend to get chaotic quick , not saying its impossible though
Sure, just letting you know. No worries.
