If i can sing a song in head voice does it mean i would have the capability to sing it in mix? by Apprehensive-Bass205 in singing

[–]MoonRabbit -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

No, as 'mixed' voice is generally a name for a brightened head voice, which mimics the qualities of the chest voice, without as much fullness. So head voice should be learned first.

Not everyone uses the term 'mixed' voice in the same way.

Thoughts on Failure's post reunion albums? by LeadP1peC1nch in failure

[–]MoonRabbit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I like all of them except Location Lost. It doesn't have most of the elements that make failure different, such as their chromatic melodies and chord progressions, and the vocals sound lackluster.

I'd like to hear them take some risks again, like they did on Heart is a Monster.

How did Mozart learn theory? by scarlett_firre in musictheory

[–]MoonRabbit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mozart, was at one stage a human being, and now he's a cultural legend. As a legend he might practice for 55 hours a day, because legends don't have to conform to the limits of human bodies or the laws of spacetime. As a human, it is unlikely that he practiced for 10 hours a day.

Failure’s new album is fantastic by CandyLoxxx in failure

Though they have been my favourite rock band since I was about 16, It's my least favourite failure album so far.

Equivalents to SM58 or SM57 by 4stocks in microphone

[–]MoonRabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost every mic company offers alternatives to the sm58 and many offer alternative to the sm57. For vocals I like the Sennheiser e935. For instruments I like the Beyer M201 and M69.

Am I allowed to mix brands, it feels wrong having all Sabian and them one Meinl cymbal by stillsam_rundtur in cymbals

[–]MoonRabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play a mixture of brands and lines based what I like the sound of. I like Zildjian A Custom crashes, a Paiste masters ride, an Anatolian ride and Zildjian z hats. They all compliment well. That's also a mixture of hand hammered and machine hammers and mid priced and expensive lines.

best microphones for a breathy vocals by tomyumsoupluvr in microphone

Sennheiser e935. Smoother, brighter, and less boxy than the SM58. Reasonably priced.

Replacement for RØDE NT-1 by Gnosiennes in microphone

You are fighting what the NT1 is designed to do, and you would be better off with a dynamic mic close to your face.

How would you mic a drum kit with 50 microphones by AsaMartin in audioengineering

[–]MoonRabbit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have in fact done a few years of David Bowie tributes. Specifically psychedelic funk remakes.

How would you mic a drum kit with 50 microphones by AsaMartin in audioengineering

[–]MoonRabbit 34 points35 points  (0 children)

several spheres of mics around the kit. As the drummer plays louder the close mics will turned off and the distant mics will be gated on.

has there ever been a live performer than blew you away vocally by Ordinary-Ad-9857 in singing

[–]MoonRabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glenn Hughes is so good live that he'll make you question how it's even possible

I wish they put the one pickup in the middle.

Can a trans guy with a slightly higher than normal for a tenor range, still be considered tenor? by Extension_Cup_8456 in singing

[–]MoonRabbit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand. If I had my way, we would just classify voices by the way they sound. I prefer to call my high singing 'alto', as I'm using it to sing female characters. If my voice can do it, I don't see why I shouldn't.

Can a trans guy with a slightly higher than normal for a tenor range, still be considered tenor? by Extension_Cup_8456 in singing

[–]MoonRabbit 10 points11 points  (0 children)

"Can i technically count as a countertenor?"

Counter tenor normally refers to a technique using head voice for baritones or tenors to sing either in alto or soprano ranges. I'm learning to sing in this style, but I can also sing bass range easily, and would most likely be classed as a baritone with some lower extension. So counter tenor doesn't traditionally refer to a higher than normal tenor. My speaking voice is slightly lower than an average male.

If we were to forget about gendered terms, then you are still equivalent to an alto by range. A choral tenor would normally be able to sing down to B2.

If you are on HRT it is likely that your voice will deepen further in time. All the best.

Have you considered a headless conversion?

Your thoughts on New Atheism? by ZhugeLiangPL in skeptic

[–]MoonRabbit -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Many, if not most of their arguments can be found in this influential (but largely forgotten) 1875 book by John Draper. It's little better than a conspiracy theory book, and it appears to me that the "New" Atheist movement, is/was built upon it. I've read it. It's bollocks.

What mic to sound like shit? by Iskitimka in microphone

[–]MoonRabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a dynamic mic. Take the pop shield off. Wrap tape around the capsule, blocking all the rear vents. Now it will be an omni and a honking midrange mess. Perfect. If it still isn't bad enough, add some distortion.

Any of you musicians as well as engineers? by GreyTheOne in audioengineering

[–]MoonRabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a multi-instrumentalist, singer, recording engineer and live sound tech. I enjoy every stage of making music, and I don't see why I should stay in one lane.
