SOVT expert Oren Boder answers six of the top AMAs we received on semi-occluded vocal tract exercises & science.
We discuss:
Why the angle of the straw in water might make a difference - 3.50
Why you might be bypassing the benefits of straws without realising it - 5.30
Why matching resistance of your straw to your personal glottal impedance is important, and when to break that rule! - 7.10
Understanding the relationship between the depth of the water and the resistance (as opposed to how full the bottle is) - 12.40
What Eruptive Bubbling is, what causes it and why Oren doesn't recommend it - 14.30
And Jeremy joins in with information on SOVT and playing a wind instrument
