@awth13@hexbear.net linked it to me. It's pretty overwhelming to at first. (especially compared to L's guide which I used to use, but apparently L's is outdated. Mfw I've been (slowly) voice training long enough that the methods I used are considered bad now.) But if you just listen to a few of the audio clips instead of thinking you need to do all of them it's not too bad. I do kinda wish the site had a more clear 'start here' bit though, I was able to jump right into it without one since I have my old experience to go off of but idk I feel like someone without any would be lost. Just do shit in the order you want to.
Kinda yeah, one thing I found nice about L's was how structured and ordered it was. It gave you specific things to focus on before moving onto the next thing once you felt comfortable. And in so doing it was able to introduce new concepts as they became relevant which allowed for an easier learning experience. You did just Pitch and then learned what Resonance is and focused on just that and so on. It atomises the process of learning in a way that's less overwhelming
While I understand it's a difference of the approaches, where this one is a lot more open ended and wants you to work on multiple things at once, it means that, for instance, I don't really have an obvious "start" point. Sure size and weight come up first, but I won't understand why I should do those two first over the other voice clips until after I've already been training a while, which I think is pretty discouraging. Personally I know why it sets those first, like I said I have previous experience with this stuff, but even with that experience I feel almost aimless right now in a way I never did while using L's.
I'd also add while I'm at it, I'm more of a textual learner, and so the audio focus of the method is kinda harder for me. The amount of times I need to relisten to an instruction when I know if it was written out I'd have understood it immediately is quite high. I get that it's a huge part of this method though, since it's all about learning to identify and replicate the sounds, so listening to clips is very much necessary. It's just another small bit though that's quite noticeable, I'm probably gonna just start writing notes to compensate.
Edit: Also, using all the jargon without explaining any means that anyone without some sort of voice background isn't going to understand it until they get further in, which is discouraging
That makes sense, hopefully it happens, in the meanwhile this is still definitely very helpful. Just not as structured as what I'm used to.

Ahh awesome thanks for the link!!
