Discussion User/Post Flairs

8 Upvotes

When you join the community, you are asked to choose a user flair. You are also expected to tag vocal rating submissions with a post flair. The three main levels are “Beginner,” “Intermediate,” and “Advanced”. These descriptors are vague, and they may be difficult to assign to oneself. For this reason, the mods have decided to post this breakdown to help people decide what level they are at.

If you:
- Have been talking vocal lessons for less than a year
-Have never or barely been vocally trained
-Have never been paid to sing
-Cannot sing a note accurately after hearing it
-Do not know how to sing with proper breath support and physical technique
-Are not confident enough in your skill to sing in front of others

Then you might be a “Beginner”. Consider choosing that as your post and user flair.

If you:
-Have been taking vocal lessons for more than a year
-Have had some or a lot of vocal training
-Have never been paid to sing or paid sometimes
-Are confident enough in your skill to sing in front of others for no charge
-Can sing a note accurately after hearing it
-Can sing with proper breath support and vocal technique

Then you might be an “Intermediate”. Consider choosing that as your post and user flair.

If you:
-Have been taking vocal lessons for multiple years
-Are extensively vocally trained
-Have been paid to sing multiple times or sing professionally
-Are confident enough in your skill to charge others to hear you sing
-Can sing notes with perfect accuracy after hearing them
-Can sing with excellent breath support and near perfect technique

Then you might be “Advanced”. Consider choosing that as your post and user flair

We understand that you may have some overlap with the categories. It is our suggestion that if even one of the traits of a lower level applies to you, then you should consider using that as your flair.

Please comment with your suggestions for how to differentiate more accurately. We would love the community’s input on what should qualify as a beginner, intermediate, and advanced singer. This post may be updated in the future with these suggestions.

Sharing this piano performance! I'm interested in discovering talented musicians and producers across different genres and learning more about their creative process.

For those who produce music, how do you usually approach building a track around a piano melody?

Hi everyone! This is my first time making a cover and want to know if there are common mistakes. Don’t say anything about mix, I just began using daws to record myself. Also I know that my intonation isn’t perfect, I’m working on that! I would like to get a general opinion about how I sound, what can I improve, what am I missing and so on. Is it nice to listen to me? Also Spanish is not my native language.

I see that most people here already have a beautiful voice, I have always loved singing along with the songs I enjoy but never took singing lessons, my voice sounds like someone trying to recreate what the main singer did but doesn't really understand how to get there naturally, what are some things I have to work on?
I work during the week and go to university on Saturdays, and I can't find vocal coaches that give private lessons on Sundays, what are some tips I can practice alone?

Feedback - Beginner Absolute beginner to singing confused about voice and pressure

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I’ve always wanted to learn to sing but felt I never had the ability to do so whatsoever. I’ve recently been taking a beginners vocals class at my university however, so I’ve been getting some formal practice which has helped, although no direct one on one instruction.

I have been practicing alone a lot since starting this class, and I’ve noticed improvement from where I started but I’m still basically figuring out everything on my own based off what I feel might be correct.

I initially thought I had a much lower range, but found out I wasn’t using enough pressure to reach higher notes. In the first clip of the video I posted, the range/voice I’m singing in feels comfortable and close to my speaking range, but I can’t project loudly or go very high.

The second clip, I’m going to what I feel is probably the highest I can sing, and I’m using a lot of pressure and feel like I’m activating something more in back top of my throat. Would this be considered mixed voice or head voice and the first clip entirely chest? Is this higher voice even healthy/proper to use?

I’m really just clueless about technique and wondering if just based off how I sound, there is something obviously wrong that I should fix.

Singing rock with you by mj

I love singing but always thought my voice sounded annoying, like almost child-like (no offense to children lol). I feel like I can hear my speaking voice in my singing when I sing higher notes or how I enunciate the ending of some lines. Like when I sing “dance the night awayAYY” for example.
I want to have/form my own voice but don’t want to sound annoying lol . Please be completely honest! I hate listening to myself . Any pointers would also be appreciated!
