Comes in very handy when I am singing! Especially when I am doing one song in a show. Sometimes, I even keep it in my bra so I have it handy!
This was recommend to me by singing teacher to help with my high larynx. I was so shocked at how well it worked. Using it for warm-up really makes a difference. Unfortunately I let my son try it out and he likes it so much he won’t give it back LOL.
I hesitated for quite some time about the Vocal Trainer, mainly due to the cost. I kept watching the videos and reviews and finally decided to move forward, and I genuinely wish I had done so much sooner. The progress over the first few weeks has been truly incredible. I can see a difference in sustain and the ease of runs in both higher and lower octaves. I use this twice a day during my usual 10-minute vocal warm-ups (Jacobs Vocal Academy).
My high notes -- all of my notes -- are more clear and more powerful. This little tool is amazing.
I been using it for a week and I can feel a difference already.
I will recommend it.
I use this tool every day to help my voice get warm and stay warm safely. It’s especially handy when I need to warm up on public transport and don’t want to look insane doing lip trills and “ng’s”.
I'm a 20+ year professional singer and voice coach. Not only have I worked through all the bad habits myself and achieved a level of performing that is truly satisfying, but I've worked tirelessly to get my clients to experience their own vocal power and freedom. As I'm sure all the other voice professionals can agree... I've learned a million different ways to describe how to achieve this vocal experience. And I can have a student leave the studio with total connection... only to have them find they can't achieve it by themselves at home. So then they practice all week with bad technique again and we start over next lesson. That's why this is SO EXCITING! Now my students can go home and do their drills with this little baby and BAM - no straws in water and all that stuff... and their voice can find its perfect placement! This is making my job so much easier and I've only had it for a month! And I'm never going to be without it on my gigs... and I"m telling everyone about it. Thanks for creating this ingenious little gadget for us singers.
For several years I've used the straw and water method and this is definitely more convenient, with a more exact measurement system of resistance. It did take a bit to get used to the rectangular shape of the mouthpiece.
As a barbershop singer, I was taught to use a straw in water to provide resistance. This is SO much better! I hang it around my neck and use it for warm ups, when I want to work a phrase or passage that I seem to lack air on, and I have control over the amount of resistance so I am sure I am gradually increasing and strengthening my breath support!
Thank you so much for this handy tool. I am a professional singer and as I have gotten older, I am having to learn new techniques for singing. This little tool has been so great in helping me find my voice again! So thank you!
With the little time I have used it, I can feel that I’m making progress on my vocal technique. I anticipate that with more time spent on this trainer, I will achieve even more. It is very simple to use, yet gives me feedback that I find has helped my singing.
Thank you for this innovative products.
I have only had it a few days, and I use it every day, and time will tell. I totally get the concept, and I look forward to allowing the time it takes to help my vocals. I am also impressed by the surrounding support and information in the form of videos and written material. Thank you!
Heard immediate improvements in our older voices and can sing in the church choir once again!
Cant say enough about this thing! It does everything they say it does.
It really makes a difference in my vocal Warm up I feel like it’s really helping my vocal strength as well.
I originally purchased a Sing Ring and was satisfied with its effectiveness but it was difficult to use. When I saw the Vocal Trainer in use I immediately ordered one and love it at every level!
I’ve been using the Better Voice for about a week. Every morning on my way to work, I use this while singing a couple songs. It makes my vocal cords, throat, and mask vibrate. I think I can tell a difference in my vocal power, and better resonance. I sing bass in a Southern Gospel Quartet, and I can tell a difference already!
With proper use of voice trainer, I noticed there is improvement on my voice, I noticed the difference when I speak regularly and sing during my choir rehearsal. I only use it for a week now and I can tell it is helping me how to position my voice before and while singing. I recommend it to choir members, performers, or if you simply want improvements on your voice it is worth it. I will buy again with engraving on it to give as a gift for my wife.
I have used SOVT straws for a long time. This is such an incredibly convenient tool to have multiple levels of pressure at your disposal. I find myself warming up for fun while it's around my neck during the day.
I received the Better Voice device a few weeks ago, and am very pleased with the results! As a professional Opera/Musical Theatre singer, it definitely helps warm up the voice smoothly, and without any pushing! I teach 42 voice students from age 6-65, at my music academy, and will now start recommending this device to all my students! Thank you, Braden, for the great customer service! I would recommend this device to anyone studying the art of Voice!🎶
I bought two, one for me and one for my Granddaughter. She absolutely loves hers and I haven’t used mine as yet, but I’m sure I will love it as well. Such a simple device, yet effective!!
This is such a small little gadget that is so easy to carry I can use it frequently and never feel like I am straining my voice, so it makes it extremely easy to keep up with my vocal warm ups. I like to use it for awhile doing scales before I sing, but it does warm up my voice quickly so I can use it for shorter periods if I need to as well. There are so many times that I find it difficult to warm up before going in front of an audience, but I feel like I can do this more quietly anywhere. I am really glad that I got it.
Great warm up tool for singing. Use it everyday to warm up and strengthen my voice.
