This made a MASSIVE difference to my mixed voice. It feels like my throat is now "unblocked". Before I would sing high in chest but if I need to go higher I'd have to consciously move to head voice. It'd be a jarring switch and sometimes I'd get it wrong and go too high in my chest. After doing the creaky door exercises I don't think of registers anymore. I just hit a note and regardless of the pitch it sounds full and there's no tension. I can now sing 4 Non-Blondes - What's Up with no tension. That song has some big pitch intervals and if you're thinking too much about switching chest/head it becomes confusing and exhausting.

Thank you for this technique, Sterling!

Yeah Thanks for the VOX analytics, it helps out big time and also for the funny sex doll joke. Classic ! 😂👌🤟🏻👊🏼

13:08 It's crazy that there's a hard palate sensation there, it feels like a whole new playground to explore

This is a fantastic lesson, very valuable. Thank you!

got me in the door, thanks man. no pun intended lol

Super random. Today I felt like listening to music on KZfaq and saw a video of a dude talking about mixed voice. And then I watched another video of a guy singing Like A Stone and remembered your version from way back (I've replayed that version of yours a lot in 2018). And now here I am, watching your recent upload talking about mixed voice and making squeaky door noises for 16 minutes. Things just be crazy like that sometimes. Good stuff, man, and thanks for the lessons -- I learned a lot more from this video.

I have actually tried practicing that. It took some time and I kinda got it but it requires so much patience. Still couldn't sing songs with this mixed voice because I can't feel much freedom when I have to use so precise control and balance. The louder version of this mixed voice that i think is in your cry mixed voice video can warm up the vocal fry for this tiny version of this voice Also another thought this one artist Eve lowers his head during live perfomances on some notes. I wonder if it does the same effect as at 4:59. When I first tried to sing like him, I also was lowering my head and neck down and it really was helping although it doesn't mean that I have to let out more air

This is a great technique! Your videos have really helped me develop a mix. It definitely comes easier after practicing it OFTEN, and combining it with the ideas you discuss in your other videos.

Man, keeping those cords tightly adducted so that the sound is tiny and razor sharp, sure isn’t as easy as you make it look! 🤪

Klasse! Danke dafür. Beste Grüße aus Deutschland 👍

Sterling when your doing the creaky door is your larynx low? Like a low is you can get it? I've been working on lowering my larynx for months so this creaky door exercise might be my next step to getting into mixed voice. You rock dude 🤘

Ooooo I got some catching up to do on the new vids. Sterlinga the best. Join his cult. Give him money.

Thank you for this; with every video I seem to be getting a little closer. I can do pretty much all of the whining door sound as I go up in pitch, but when I start to add volume, then I feel the strain on my vocal chords and jaw muscles. Even though I think I am doing things correctly, obviously I am not. I noticed when you start to add power, the tone of your voice changes slightly. I get that as well, except it tires everything out. I'll keep going, except with less volume and hopefully I can eventually build my power up without getting sore.

Currently able to create Tones with my Mix but as soon as i try to vowel syllibals it starts to cracking and flipping :/ Any advice on this?

For this ro be louder and feel connected to my chest like at 12:19 isn't sustainable unfortunately, air leaks . Not each time but most. And I've been trying to find a way for many years. Support seems to split it open

Great lesson again Sterling! Do you think vowel modification is really necessary to access high range? Also, what is your hourly rate for 1 to 1 lesson?

I can do this on all vowels apart from “ah”! Air creeps in and a break…. Any advice, mate?
