The customary ways to learn to sing are to get singing lessons, become a member of a choir or singing group, read publications about singing, etc.
Of course, these are all still totally legitimate ways to learn how to sing! But we're fortunate to live in an time where the internet permits us to learn things more swiftly than was ever possible in the past.
Singing software is now getting to be a reputable approach to learn to sing, raise musicianship and become a superior, more well rounded vocalist.
Not all voice training software is crafted the same. A lot of vocal training software is just low-quality. A good web page and graphic design scheme as well as a fantastic marketing campaign all go a long way towards making a underperforming product appear superb.
On one side that's a regrettable fact we face but on the other hand, competition makes learning to sing a risk-free purchase. Each and every singing dvd or piece of voice training software that I have come across and reviewed has a minimum of a 30-day, 100% money-back guarantee.
Numerous others, who really uphold their product offer a 110% money-back guarantee for 60 days, 90 days or even a lifetime! What that means to you as an aspiring singer is that you can pick and choose the vocal software that suits you best and if it doesn't suit your needs, you can send it back for a full refund and still keep it!
Then you can simply start working on another product and find out what kind of vocal progress you make with it. You should always feel like you're getting what you paid for. A lot of singing training software packages are costly.
Remember, you can return your product for a refund if you're not receiving the kinds of outcomes that you were wanting. When deciding on voice training software you'll need to consider what you're trying to achieve with your own voice.
If you're interested in opera singing, for example, a rock singing program wouldn't be a great fit for you personally. If you're a pop singer then a jazz program wouldn't really fit with you either.
Look for singers who have used the program you're thinking about and what kinds of success they've experienced to get an idea of it's suitability for you. One point I feel I should mention as a professional singer who once didn't know where to start, himself, is that you should never ignore musicianship.
The fact is, singers have a reputation for being lousy musicians and in many cases, it's a totally deserved designation. Music is a language and for you to be able to connect and enjoy it on a whole different level, it's essential that you grow to be a good musician. This consists of learning things like intervals, solfege, chords, theory, ear training (especially this one!), rhythm, sight singing, harmony, melody, playing/singing with other musicians, etc.
Musicianship is what divides the good singers from the fantastic singers. It really pays off to stick with a program for a little while and practice with it consistently. It's easy to write off what ever singing software you happen to be working with as not doing its job but like all things, singing requires a lots of persistence to get good.
You may have superb vocal training software but if you're impatient, you won't realize that you're making sluggish but steady advancement. There are no quick fixes in learning to sing. It's a whole long process of training muscle memory and the ear.
If you expect to "double your range overnight" or do any of the other amazing achievements that some singing software claims you, you're in for frustration.
I've been in this biz more than 7 years and I've never seen anybody do ANYTHING instantaneously! Anyway, I think you get it...be patient and practice regularly and your singing WILL improve :-)
