Do You Have a Particular Song or Line You Use To Warm Your Voice up? - Asked by ShadyLookingDog

Question From ShudderDrummerXX: I was talking with the singer of our band last night (Hard Rock/Metal). He was telling me that hitting higher notes has become increasingly more difficult as of late. He does quite a bit of screaming in our music as well. He thinks he might have nodules on his vocal chords. I guess my question to you would be is there an easy way to figure out if you have nodules without seeing a doctor (dumb but figured I would ask anyways)? And secondly if he indeed does and gets them removed what could you recommend to prevent it from happening as far as preparation and stuff with singing/screaming in the future. Thanks!

The thing I struggle with most when recording VO is sibilance. Any top tips or exercises to help tone it down? I'd really appreciate any advice you could give. I'm a mid 20s Irish guy btw.

Episode 20 - Direction, Position, Attention, Situation

Another combination to be aware of today – the ‘oth’ sound doesn’t tend to go how you think it will. It’s actually much more of a ‘uh’ sound, like ‘such’ or ‘much’. Get the lowdown on how to square off the mouth, relax the tongue and prevent the ‘oh’ sound from sneaking more.
