Reaching The Breaking Point—Part Two
By Jeannie Deva - 02/10/2005 - 03:41 AM EST
In Part Two, I'll reveal the truth behind the myths of breathing and breath support. Many singers have been confused by hazy directions and inadequate information about breathing. Ever wonder about the instructions to "sing from the diaphragm" or "breathe from the diaphragm" or "fill your stomach with air"? Could it be that incorrect information about breathing is actually holding back your range, throwing your voice off pitch or in fact the source of your register break? Read this article!

What Is A Broadcast Quality Recording? Part 9: Mixing To Broadcast
By Jerry Flattum - 02/03/2005 - 06:49 AM EST

Once mastered, now the challenge is distribution.

What Is A Broadcast Quality Recording? Part 3: Journey From Note to Recording
By Jerry Flattum - 02/03/2005 - 05:37 AM EST
What is being recorded and how it is recorded proves critical in what is being mixed and what can be "fixed" in mastering. A single note "doth not a song make." A broadcast quality recording depends on everything that comes before it: the song, the sound, the performance.
