I was sceptical at first then when I watched a few videos and actually tried it I have seen a difference within the first 20 min now I love practicing with it. It seems like my throat feels different as well. I don't have to use my head voice for high notes. I will keep with it and I can only get better! Best money I ever spent.
I used the Vocal Trainer as directed and it seemed to help my vocal range and control after only a few times using it. I'm sure my range and control will improve as I use it more, and I'm impressed with the early results.
We all know that the straw method, works, but this is so much better! I can adjust it to change the pressure. I can warm up in the car, hands free, without a straw sticking out of my mouth. And I won’t drop it because it’s around my neck. Cool necklace, too!
This thing is amazing so far! Voice feels amazing after I use it considering I haven’t practiced singing for a year. 100% recommended.
Really love the ease and portability of the tool - frees up most tension and strain and has improved my overall confidence with my voice
I use to just using regular straw but knowing that wasn’t very planet friendly. So I finally made my mind to purchase it. I’m sure every singer knows how SOVT works for your voice. I like it very light way and tiny also can adjust the level of pressure. It works great!
But for real, this thing is like a Swiss army knife for vocal training. I’m writing my first album and am so glad I came across this when I did so I can perform with confidence after I get the album recorded and I start shopping around my act. I also play saxophone and better control of breath helps all around.
Had a problem and itcwas sorted within 24 hours sending me a replacement. Great customer service is
I have Sulcus Vocalis and, sure I could do tongue trills and what not, but this trainer is an awesome way to exercise my damaged cords but not strain them. I personally find that my voice sounds better and cracks a little less after using this product. I bought two.
I had stopped singing for a while and needed to rebuild up my vocal muscles. This was just what I needed.
I am completely blown away by this small device. It is so genuisly created and brings very speedy and fantastic results. I keep recommending it to all my singer friends.
This tool has been great to help me lift my soft palate. I feel so much more opening and I am more aware of my soft palate. I hadn’t realized it but it tended to collapse after a good onset. This tool really enables me to be hyper aware of my soft palate now.
I am new to this type of vocal exercise and it seemed a little difficult at first, but I watched a few videos and getting the hang of it. I do see an improvement and doing warm ups with it before practice has helped quite a bit.
My son is a professional musician. I bought this for his birthday and he thinks it's fabulous. I am planning to buy one for his wife who is also sings with his band.
I have been using it for a few days. Since it is summer, my chorus group is on a break, and I also lack the discipline to practice alone; however, I found this device to be an easy way to spend 10 to 15 minutes a day on singing scales and appoggio. After I used the device, I sang normally and without any effort, I could achieve the tone and volume I desired. Great device.
The only thing I would say is: I hope it comes with a video demonstration about how to use it correctly. At the beginning, I was worried about using it wrong and damaging my vocal cords. The YouTube videos are very short and are shown mainly by men. We need a teaching video for those who might not have voice training. Luckily, with all the years of my training and the skills I have achieved, I applied them to utilizing this device.
So far, I think it's helpful.
I have a slightly paralyzed vocal cord. I’m a nationally touring eccentric clown and perform about 200 shows a year. I’ve been requested to use SVOT twice a day and as part of my pre-show warm up. This device seems a perfect fit for my lifestyle: I wear it around my neck so it’s handy when going to a job and departing to start recovery.
I like the material used to make this device. Seems sturdy. The lanyard doesn’t look like it will last so I’ll replace it. My career depends on my vocal capacity and I hope this helps.
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.
