PRACTICAL APPLICATION
TUNING VS MODIFICATION
TUNING VS MODIFICATION
Modification is changing the vowel as a single unit
TUNING VS MODIFICATION
Modification is changing the vowel as a single unit
Tuning is precise adjustments of both individual resonators
FORMANT REQUIREMENTS

FORMANT REQUIREMENTS
Low chest needs high F1
Upper chest needs lower F1
Primary bridge or Mix requires lower F1 and F2
Head voice needs higher F2
F2 continues to raise for robust singing
FORMANT REQUIREMENTS
Low chest needs high F1
Upper chest needs lower F1
Primary bridge or Mix requires lower F1 and F2
Head voice needs higher F2
F2 continues to raise for robust singing
F2 can lower for more lyric singing

VOWEL FAMILIES
VOWEL FAMILIES
Forward vowels- tongue adjustment
VOWEL FAMILIES
Forward vowels- tongue adjustment
Back vowels - Lip adjustment
FORMANT ADJUSTMENTS
FORMANT ADJUSTMENTS
Chest - higher larynx, wider lips
FORMANT ADJUSTMENTS
Chest - higher larynx, wider lips
Upper Chest through Primary Bridge - lower larynx, rounded lips
FORMANT ADJUSTMENTS
Chest - higher larynx, wider lips
Upper Chest through Primary Bridge - lower larynx, rounded lips
Bridge to Head Voice - larynx stabilized, drop jaw, widen lips and/or move tongue forward
OVER-NARROW VOWELS
OVER-NARROW VOWELS
F2 is too low - missing the correct Harmonic
OVER-NARROW VOWELS
F2 is too low - missing the correct Harmonic
F2 is on wrong Harmonic or falls between
OVER-NARROW VOWELS
F2 is too low - missing the correct Harmonic
F2 is on wrong Harmonic or falls between
Lack of energy sent to vocal cords - squeezing and imbalance
CORNER VOWELS

OO, EE and AW
Most extreme tongue positions
EE - tongue high and forward

TUNING EXERCISES
LOWER CHEST
LOWER CHEST
LOWER CHEST Tune F1 with AH
LOWER CHEST Tune F1 with AH
Then tune in F2
LOWER CHEST Tune F1 with AH
Then tune in F2
AH-OO
LOWER CHEST Tune F1 with AH
Then tune in F2
AH-OO
AH - E
LOWER CHEST Tune F1 with AH
Then tune in F2
AH-OO
AH - E
AH-UH
UPPER CHEST
UPPER CHEST
Tune F1 with AW
TRANSITION
TRANSITION
Tune F1 with UH
TRANSITION
Tune F1 with UH
F2 will need to be relatively low
HEAD VOICE
HEAD VOICE
Tune F1 with OUH as in book
HEAD VOICE
Tune F1 with OUH as in book
Jaw drop to raise F1
HEAD VOICE
Tune F1 with OUH as in book
Jaw drop to raise F1
F2 needs to rise for robust sound
HEAD VOICE
Tune F1 with OUH as in book
Jaw drop to raise F1
F2 needs to rise for robust sound
Raise F2 with lip and tongue adjustments
ADVANCED HEAD VOICE STRATEGIES
ADVANCED HEAD VOICE STRATEGIES
Use tongue movement on Back Vowels
ADVANCED HEAD VOICE STRATEGIES
Use tongue movement on Back Vowels
Use lip movement on Front Vowels
DIPHTHONGS
DIPHTHONGS
Narrow to wider vowels
DIPHTHONGS
Narrow to wider vowels
Way, Wow, Woah, Wee, etc.
DIPHTHONGS
Narrow to wider vowels
Way, Wow, Woah, Wee, etc.
Instantly lowers F1
DIPHTHONGS
Narrow to wider vowels
Way, Wow, Woah, Wee, etc.
Instantly lowers F1
Allows the singer to feel F2 tuning
