VIDEO OUTLINE: [ Ссылка ]

-Basic Info
The larynx, pronounced, Lair-Enks, is the muscular, mucosal chamber which your vocal folds reside in. The position of the larynx can be altered through various muscle groups. When the larynx is raised, the vocal folds are positioned closer to the lips, which shortens the overall vocal tract length and shifts the resonances higher (creates a brighter sound). When the larynx lowers, the vocal tract extends, shifting the resonances lower (darker sound). It’s essential to use a higher larynx position when seeking to pass with a female voice.

-General Ideology
There are several ways to approach learning to alter the larynx height. Most of the best solutions all use a variation of Noise + Filter in order to hear the resonance more clearly, then trying to speak or sing using the filter setting. In the video and link there is simple infographics and audio examples to help walk you through it. The goal, at first, should be to gain control of this variable then integrate it into the process of speech once it’s properly heard, controlled, and executed.

-Common Issues:
1. Flipping into falsetto immediately
2. Altering towards a more forward tongue position instead of raising the larynx.
3. Raising too high and getting a choked or “fluttery” sound
4. Tensing the neck muscles instead of allowing the correct muscles to perform the motion
5. Squeezing the vocal folds too hard
6. Not listening


I hope this is helpful for many of you out there! I’ve seen so much confusion and struggle relating to the larynx so I hope this can illuminate some confusion. There is a lot more to know, explore, and fully digest but I wanted to keep this first video simple, clear, and easy to follow. Feel free to ask any questions in the comments below. Part 2 will contain advanced info, more ear training, and spectral data!

warmly,
