Tip for Harmony Singing by Ear Users 

A user just wrote me about a cool way to use the method on iOS devices: Here's what he wrote:

 "I created a way to toggle the left center right stereo channel balance pressing the iPhones action button. Thought it could be of use to some of your students who need an easy quick way to change the L/R balance on iOS. 

 
Info below in case of any use. 
  • - you add the shortcut from the url  https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/7e8dfc0ae2e548818c0d6acab6cfe12b
  • then you assign the action button to “shortcut” and select the “Left Right Balance” shortcut you’ve added. 
     
  •  then going forward when you press the side action button it toggles from L, to balanced, to R stereo balance. "

I'm teaching online singing lessons from my new home in Bend now, but Expertise.com has just listed me as one of the best vocal coaches in Nashville for 2022--since I taught in Nashville for almost twenty years and still work with many singers there I guess that makes it legit.

The Skype’s the Limit 

This last week I’ve Skyped singing lessons with singers in Knoxville, New York City, Buenos Aires, and on the other side of Nashville. Skype does have it’s limits. but I’ve worked out some very tricky technical problems and some pretty subtle delivery issues with singers who are far away. Plus, my dogs love it because they can be in my teaching room while I’m Skypeing. More info here
