Thomas, as I share how self-recording can bridge the gap between perception and reality in your vocal technique. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced singer, recording allows for immediate feedback and insight into areas needing improvement. Learn from my experiences with artists like Damien, who transitioned from songwriter to singer through diligent practice and recording. Plus, I'll cover essential tips for setting up a home studio and using DAWs like GarageBand and Audacity. Don't miss this chance to elevate your vocal game!RESOURCES:Low cost studio set up : The idea is just to get started. This will not give you studio quality, but it will allow you to get used to recording your voice quickly. Don't forget to use garage band (Mac) or Audacity (pc). There are other DAW's as well. 1 Shure SM58 mic - roughly 110€xlr cable - roughly 20€Scarlett Focusrite solo Audio Interface - This connects your mic to your computer - roughly 90€ - 120€headphone, you can use any pair you have that plugs in via mini jack or get a better one for around 100€.If need be, you can use a cheaper mic. Just keep in mind the idea is to get used to recording quickly. Obviously, the better the equipment the better you will sound. The cheapest version and also the lowest quality will be using your phone. Don't over think this. Start where you are and buy better equipment little by little and on a need basis, unless money is not an issue.

In the enlightening episode "Transform Your Singing NOW: The 3 Essential Elements of Song" of "Monique on the Mic," we delve into the often overlooked yet crucial aspects that can significantly elevate your singing. If you're unsure where to start your vocal improvement journey, this episode is a goldmine of actionable steps.We begin by addressing a common blind spot in vocal training. While many understand the need for lessons and the importance of singing in tune and with style, few are aware of the three essential elements that act as levers to enhance their performance: Notes, Words, and Rhythms. These elements are key to understanding not just how to sing a song, but how to make it truly professional.Firstly, we explore 'Notes,' focusing on pitch, quality, and vibrato, all of which are integral to vocal technique. Then we move to 'Words,' where vowels, consonants, and intelligibility play a crucial role, adding personal expression to your singing. Lastly, 'Rhythm' is discussed, likened to the stitching in clothing, which affects the overall quality of your performance.In summary, these three elements are indispensable for transforming your singing from amateur to exceptional. They are deeply connected to both vocal technique and musicianship. By focusing on these elements, even in just one song, you will see a significant improvement in your overall singing skills, moving beyond mediocrity to true vocal artistry.If you have a topic you'd like me to discuss please send me an email at :info@moniqebthomas.com
