the voice, practicing the singing voice

[jonjon]

Ok... so i got a few tips to sing along to male singers to try and practice my voice lower.

Yeah, i actually got that, and got it good.

Except, i have no idea how to practice that voice in everyday speech. When i sing along i have a real sounding male voice (or at least thats how i sound to me) but when i talk it's like it's on a whole diff level.

Does anyone actually know how i can switch that voice into normal speech?

I think I said this before... *digs up reply*.. voilá:

....start by singing one note (for example 'do'), and before you are out of breath say a regular sentence (might want to start it with an 'o' if doing 'do' in the beginning since it's easier, e.g.: "open the door.."). This should give you a good feel of how to use your breath, and muscles in order to lower your voice (just keep that vibration in mind).

That's my 2 cents on it

Thats a good idea! I have just tried it and it has worked for me

Wishy, get yourself a voice recorder ,that will give you a good idea how your voice actually sounds. And practice, practice, practice.

Wish I knew.

I used to do funny voices on the radio, darn it, and can do a number of different ones, some distinctly male and some distinctly female. But I've not been able to modify my everyday speaking voice to sound male without sounding like one of these character-voices.
