Title: Voice q's
Post by: Swayallday on January 08, 2016, 05:15:23 AM
So I got this exercice
to swallow and train that motion to become in control of the adams apple

is it the point of actual control and thus *hum* more

or is it the point to keep it as high as possible and then speak?

Thanks in advance  :-*

The position of the adams apple changes your resonance - the length of the resonance chamber above your vocal chords. The goal is to make this resonance chamber smaller. Position of the Larynx (which may be detected with the "adams apple") plays a role, but also tightness of the muscles around the "tube".

What instructions are you following, it is a youtube video, a text description, something you talked about with people or given to you by a voice coach?

It would help to know where this particular "exercise" comes from. It sounds more like a description of what happens if you train your voice.
