Summary

In this episode of The Intelligent Vocalist , John breaks down the science behind mix and explains how vocal fold geometry and airflow work together to create smooth transitions. He explains why cracks, strain, or inconsistency often come from a mismatch in coordination rather than doing something wrong. When you understand how your voice actually functions, you can train it more precisely and with less frustration. Episode highlights: Your vocal folds have multiple vibration patterns built into them. Cracks happen when vocal fold patterns fail to stay in sync. Training can improve coordination and control at any age.
