Okay so I have the SS program (as most of us on here do I believe). I have watched all the you tube videos and I have read all the newsletters and junk about
singing from the singing success family. I have a serious confusion issue the program and what I hear from this site and other websites that teach a mix voice
(even if SS is the best I know they don't have a monopoly on truth). Anyhow, My confusion is with the whole compression thing. I watched the Kelly Goolsby
video excerpt of more mix please and I noticed him gaining more bite and edge to his mix as he sustained a pitch. Now my issue is the diaphragmatic support
thing. In the SS program I don't remember anything except a tiny bit of information about needing more diaphragmatic support to sing higher pitches. In
fact I remember brett on the first lesson opposing that argument. He says it isn't true that you need more support. So does that mean you don't need
more support unless you want a hard mix from E4-Bb5? I dunno but from what I got from SS giving more diaphragmatic support is not needed. So why does everyone
on this forum talk about the support thing?
Is singing in a hard mix not covered at all on the SS program? And if it isn't, why isn't it? That seems to be what everyone wants anyways. My issue is that when I add the diaphragmatic support I get too loud and I feel like I am yelling (unless I do the lip roll).
SS teaches a very light mix, it teaches how to smooth the transitions at a light volume. But it never deals with a hard mix. I just want to know why. And just so I am not misunderstood I have loved the SS program and I am glad I bought it. I am just confused about why it says nothing about a hard mix but almost all the examples have a hard mix sound to them. Am I just a moron or does anyone else know what I am talking about? Thought?
