Hi ya’ll, seeking some feedback regarding this 5 min voice clip. If you could answer the questions in the clip, as well as offer any impressions, advice, suggested improvements, that would be much appreciated. Sorry if it’s too long or ramble-y.
Also, when I say “variance to the enunciation” what I meant was “variance to the inflection/trailing tones/ends of words”.
Thanks!
Even if I don't completely pass I just want to know how generally fem I sound
Its definitely improvement but it sounds quite force and when i actually start talking instead of humming it loses some buzz
Enjoy the brief Picture from Lobotomy Corporation, it wouldn't let me upload something unless I had some sort of picture and that was already on my computer from another project. Thank you!
I mean... I'll take it since I only just started and spent maybe 2 hours learning how to get there, but I've got some serious work to do. I'm just ranting because I'm excited and I surprised myself with how fast I picked up the r1 r2 thing. I was just following along and mimicking the girl in the video and then it just actually worked!
Yayyy, exciting!!! But seriously I sound like Alexis Rose from Schitt's Creek.
On a related note, tips on how to get rid of the vocal fry would be appreciated. :)
Hey everyone! Juni is finally out on Android 💜

For anyone who hasn't seen it, Juni is a voice training app that shows you your pitch, resonance and weight in real time while you practice. Every day there's one short lesson, and once a week you read a passage so you can actually hear and see how your voice is changing over time.
You don't need an account, and your recordings never leave your phone.
The studio tools and all the lessons in Learn are free. Plus unlocks the daily practice and weekly coach, and there's a 3 day free trial if you want to try it first.
How actively do you listen to the contents of the voices around you? If the answer is "not at all" then maybe consider adopting this attitude to your voice training so that you can be inspired by the voices around you and figure out what direction you'd like to proceed.
I am finally consistently hitting mostly female range with effort, but it's been over a year of voice training now and I still find it hard to remain in that range.
So my questions: how close am I to a passing female voice? Do I need to work more on my resonance?
And how do I get better at "defaulting" to this voice? I've been trying to use it 24/7 but it often just isn't natural. Should I be making more gradual changes in my daily speech patterns or continue trying to just use the most femme voice possible in all situations?
Thank you so much <33
This is my voice in the morning. Typically the pitch increases to about 135-140 later in the day. Even though my pitch is low, I still feel like my voice is feminine and honestly most people will identify my as female still. Any feedback is helpful. Also, I am FTM!
On a side note, my voice does get pretty fatigued easily and I feel like my throat gets sore. Anyone else experience this?
Is it perfect? no. is it worlds better? hell yeah
if youre ever feeling dysphoric about your voice, listen to any old recordings you have

Yes, I know reasonance is more important, but I want to increase my pitch. While talking I often accidently drop down to ~140 Hz or lower and trying to prevent that makes me feel like I'm just constricting my throat/false vocal folds and straining. As soon as I try to relax my pitch drops again. Is there any exercise specifically for pitch? Just talking in a higher voice does not seem to work for me.
I’ve been occasionally practicing for a while now, I feel like I’m doing the larynx stuff right, but I also feel like something is still missin.
