Great examples love hearing the differences! My question is even though some sing with throat mouth for sinuses are they still considered a mixed variety? Meaning, even though one may be waited in the mouth they still utilize the other resonators to a degree.

Killer question! Let me try to give you a visual. If you think of the mixed voice as a narrow tunnel that you are ‘driving’ the notes into, the ‘vehicle’ you drive into that tunnel may be a different shape or size, depending on how you are accessing your resonators. For example: a small vehicle/voice would be what most Pop singers use, like Stevie Wonder or Adam Levine, where they are accessing primarily the sinus resonator, keeping their sound thinner, yet extremely forward and mixed. A larger vehicle/voice would be what opera singers create because they are getting all 3 resonators as full as possible to create this really BIG sound. It’s like they are driving a tank! =) Yet in both cases, no matter how much of the resonators they choose to access, they are still able to sing in their mix and drive into that ‘tunnel’ to find that sweet spot. I expound more on this in Module 8 on ‘Mastering Your Mix’. I hope that helps!

It’s really cool that how you sing can depend on what register you use.
