The Siren
Register blending
What you'll be able to say
I followed a comfortable portion of the siren up and down and listened for continuity on each vowel.
Lessons
- 1.Slide Through, Do Not Jump Over
4 min · A crack is a gear change you did not plan.
- 2.Octave Sirens, Three Vowels
6 min · Slow slides. Speed hides the break instead of fixing it.
- 3.Self-Check: Up and Down, Listening for a Crack
5 min · Three vowels, both directions. Judged by ear: nothing detects a register break.
Where to practise
Nothing in Suede Sing measures this, so the self-check is your ear and your recording. What it shows: That the slide sounded continuous to you. The pitch trace is shown; no number scores the absence of a crack.

Practice material
The exercises and songs play synthesized reference pitches: they supply the notes, not a recording of a singer demonstrating a technique. Record your takes in the recorder.

Work in a comfortable range and volume. Stop for pain, burning, sudden hoarseness, loss of range or a change in your speaking voice. These lessons teach practice decisions and stop rules; they don't diagnose or treat anything, and pitch readings do not assess vocal health. Persistent symptoms belong with a qualified clinician, not another attempt.
