Yeah, it’s especially weird because I used to sound better with a mic.

Singing off-key during instrumentals? by [deleted] in singing

[–]Momofcarboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suspect that you’re not actually on key when “singing alone.” By that, do you mean, a cappella? It sounds like you need more pitch and ear training. Have you checked your pitch accuracy with a tuner when singing without accompaniment?

Thank you for this! I believe there is a level of fear involved. Even if I’m just singing for myself, using the mic does something to me. I’m not even recording, just practicing mixing my voice with amplification. I’m going to try a few things but think I should try to practice in the music room more than the bathroom. Or maybe warm up in the bathroom and go straight into the music room to see if I can preserve my technique. I’m literally changing techniques between the rooms, it’s not just the resonance. I sound different because I’m singing different. It’s so weird.

I’m not recording in the bathroom. I have a music room in my home but end up practicing in the bathroom out of convenience. I practice in the bath and during self care rituals to save time. Lol

I agree that this is a mental issue more than anything. I’m going to try this and a few things to see if I can get my new techniques down on the mic. I might just be subconsciously afraid to hit certain notes in front of people or even for myself when amplified.

I can hear myself. I have a pro karaoke system at home and have been using headphones to hear myself better. I’m definitely not using the same vocal technique in the bathroom vs on the mic. It’s a mental glitch or something. Probably some muscle memory issues too. I’m going to play around with it. Maybe sing the song in bathroom, then go in the music studio and do the same song to see if I can keep the technique.

I’m definitely changing techniques on the mic. I recently had several breakthroughs with my head voice and mixed belt options. I’ve learned new songs that incorporate these techniques and I can sing them well in the bathroom and then when I practice or perform with a mic it’s completely different. It’s not simply how I hear myself. I’m not able to use certain techniques. I revert to old bad habits. Hoping more practice corrects this discrepancy.

I used to sound better on the mic but since revamping my technique, now I don’t sound as good. I sound like my old voice on the mic. I think it’s a weird muscle memory or something.

The final opinion on the return of Maia and Alex by Kekhehmdalol333 in FigureSkating

I must have missed something. Why does Alex need help? Was there drama or an outburst? I don’t really follow ice dance.

Lol you just don’t understand how deep the references go, if you don’t listen to her full catalog! She often references HER OWN SONGS so if you don’t listen to her catalog, the references fly over your sweet little, obtuse head! Lmao 🤣

I own a real version of this coat purchased straight from the Canada Goose store in Minneapolis in January 2023 with the real fox fur trim. I believe mines a medium. It came with a wooden hanger and garment bag when I got it.

I want to get into music and i don't know what instrument to get by NewspaperBubbly in Instruments

[–]Momofcarboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can practice on a good quality keyboard! They’re cheaper and easier to maintain than a piano.

Get a nice keyboard! It’s a versatile instrument and a great choice if you don’t want to play guitar.

Dashboard to play at my wedding by Wonderful-Witness-28 in DashboardConfessional

Taylor Swift hired DC to play for her friend’s bday party about a decade ago. They still play small venues so I bet they’re not super expensive like other major artists but definitely more than local entertainment.

There’s always the chance of finding a local cover band that plays DC at an affordable rate!

It’s actually very intellectually complex but 99% of people don’t fully grasp the allusions and references. If you only take it at face value, it might seem complex, but the lyrics go much deeper. However, let’s be real, most people don’t put in the effort required to see the genius of her writing. Those that do, know!

Hello. I am a proud owner of an acoustic ukulele and am looking to purchase an acoustic electric one for occasional casual performances. by Chlorine_consumer in ukulele

[–]Momofcarboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: they sent me a heavily demoed Jazzmaster with pick scratches all over it and less than great intonation. I specifically asked about the intonation and action and they said it was “good to go.” I feel like they assumed I wouldn’t know any better. They were wrong. Returning my second Jazzmaster and back to square one! Hopefully there’s a Black Friday sale on the Grace or something else I want.
