I just recent watched Milk for like the 1000th time, and the first thing I thought when I heard your voice was, ''Is that Anita Bryant?'' Of course you're not Anita, thankfully, or I'd have to throw a pie in your face followed by a glitter bomb, but you sound like her I think--so yes, your voice ''passes'' to me. It has that breathy, classical sound to it. I like it.

o: now i'm curious on who this anita bryant is. i already was told i look like Michonne from the walking dead so i just slap on make up stuff a bra and there ya go xD glad to see i at least have a starting point xD

Auroramarianna: 133 and 131 sound great! The others are too high and sound too "flat." (I don't know a better word.)

Thank you, and okie dokie! Oh and I think I know what you mean, my voice kind be kind of monotone, yeah, I really have to work on that!!

How would you guys gender my singing voice? And do you think it could eventually be pretty? I'm trying to get more comfortable with it.

I do think you pass. There are some parts where it's not absolutely 100% and sounds a little high, because I know, but overall definitely pass. If your voice drops more it will be 100% for sure.

@auroramarianna

You're close in 133 just sometimes still too much falsetto. Otherwise it sounds pretty good.

Initial impression says female to me, though in the first clip you could perhaps pass as a young boy too if you present as such. Are you on T btw? It's difficult to judge how a voice is going to change. Have you tried to run it through those programs where you can change the pitch? I'd lie if I say I would even remotely know.

Cheers. Yes, it will definitely drop more and I think I speak at a higher pitch than what is necessary as in, I could speak lower just fine but I don't. Also, depends a lot on the day, how strained I am from speaking overall etc.

Thanks, yes technically I am cis male but still living as a girl, sorry, I know it's confusing. ^^; but my voice by now is where it's going to be. I can go a bit lower or higher too though I'm just trying to sing in a comfortable range.

Yeah, I know what you mean, keeping hydrated and using your voice a lot makes a big difference to how it sounds! good luck!

What programs are those? I kinda want to hear what I'll roughly sound like once I start taking T.

You can do it in audacity which is free. (:

All right. I can't say if you want it to sound male or female or androgyne based on that, but I guess it doesn't matter.

Yep. I also know of these exercises that you can practice daily to drop your voice further but I think I wait until it has settled before I may feel a need for that.

You sound like you've been on testosterone for months already. You've been blessed.

I know my voice doesn't pass. But given the fact that I used to sing base in a choir, this is progress..... I guess.

Wow really? That's great and I can't wait to get them near the end of the year.
Tried to control my voice better pre-T and attempted another fast rap. Thoughts?

WOOOW! That's a huuuge evolution you should be happy, your voice is getting there!! Congrats~

Also, guys, your voices are good too! Testosterone will make them deeper, so as time goes by, it only gets better for you

All feedback welcome, been working on my voice on and off for the last 2-3 months:

Your voice is really soft, but I think you're still resonating from your chest. I'm not an expert, so take this with a grain of salt, but I think the next thing you should work on is raising the resonance from your chest to your head.

Here's my attempt:

https://soundcloud.com/princess_catherine/voice-205

I was told before that my pitch was too low, so that's the main thing I've been working on lately. I've managed to get it all the way up to a D4 on the scientific scale. I don't really hear any masculinity in this voice, but others might hear it differently. What do you think? Is it good? Where could I use improvement?

Hi Riversong,

I think your pitch is high enough for sure, If I remember correctly everything above an A3 is considered unmistakably female.

My only thought would be to add more inflections, and perhaps open up your voice a little bit, it's tricky to get the voice into your head without it becoming nasal and "pinchy" but try to add a little more breath to your voice.

I'll work on "squeezing" my voice to reduce the resonance, I think that's the part I have the hardest time with and requires the most physical effort in my experience.
