How to Prepare for an Online Singing Evaluation
A calm, luxury-level prep checklist so your diagnostic call delivers actionable data from the first note.
Tune your tech for clarity
Use a wired microphone or a trusted USB mic whenever possible. Switch off aggressive noise cancellation, choose a quiet room, and connect in-ears or over-ear headphones so we can listen for subtle resonance shifts.
Run a five-minute sound check with a favourite warmup track and record a snippet. HD audio helps us design precise exercises in real time.
Tech essentials
- Wired or high-quality USB mic
- Stable Wi-Fi (10 Mbps+ upload)
- Headphones to avoid echo
Prime your body and mind
Drink water steadily throughout the day, then pause 20 minutes before the session so breath work feels grounded. Spend five minutes tuning into posture: soften ribs, release jaw tension, and allow the spine to lengthen. Confidence starts with how you arrive in the frame.
Bring real repertoire
Have two contrasting songs (or speaking excerpts) queued as PDFs or lyric docs. We will explore both to understand how you switch tone and energy. If you perform in more than one language, bring one piece in the language you want for your session so we can evaluate articulation and storytelling choices.
Capture the insights
Keep a shared doc or notes app open. You will receive a written plan within 24 hours, but capturing immediate sensations during the call helps you anchor the experience.
