Using Soundtrap for Practice and Lessons
Soundtrap.com is a valuable resource for students of singing - especially for online learners! While I try to mitigate the overall low sound quality in online lessons, it’s still only a small picture of what you, the singer, are doing in real life. Using a simple, cloud-based, recording studio like Soundtrap enables you to capture a high quality audio file.
This will take your learning journey even deeper! Here are just a few reasons why recording yourself in a program like Soundtrap is really, really useful:
You can send me the audio files so that I can give you more informed feedback on your progress.
You can also use it as a reference for your own study. Use the recordings to objectively listen to your song and make adjustments as necessary.
It’s like practicing being in a real recording studio. In 2020 the recording studio is an important place for musicians and one that all singers are likely to visit at some point in their career regardless of the genre they sing. The recording studio is a unique space for singers and require some different skills than you would use in a live setting.
You can share your best takes with friends and loved ones. Birthday presents, holiday gifts, or just a fun way to spread some joy through music - sharing your songs with others makes the world a little brighter!
