Can You Make Your Voice Sound Better? Use the Science of Vocal Power

Certain voices like Morgan Freeman's deep resonance and Sean Connery's accent are loved, while others like Fran Drescher's nasal voice drive people crazy.

Maximum resonance point is a voice tone that provides the most confidence and vocal power, coined by Dr. Nick Morgan.

• Show how to find your maximum resonance point • Help people listen to and love your voice • Increase confidence through vocal optimization

Your voice plays a critical role in how you are perceived by others.

Access an online virtual keyboard from scienceofpeople.com/voice to play and match notes.

• Find the lowest note you can comfortably sing • Find the highest note you can comfortably sing • Count the white notes between these two points

According to Dr. Morgan, the comfortable range is usually about two octaves or 16 white notes.

The presenter's comfortable range spans about 15 white notes, from C to a higher C.

Divide your total comfortable notes by 4 to find the range size, then count up that many notes from the bottom of your range.

The notes in the middle section of your range represent your perfect resonance point where you should focus your speaking voice.

Speaking in your maximum resonance point sounds natural and confident, avoiding extremes that sound unnatural or strained.

For the presenter, the maximum resonance point falls between F and D, creating a natural and pleasant speaking voice for videos.

• Record your end of a recent video or phone call • Pull up a keyboard and match the notes to your recording • Check if you're speaking too low or too high

The presenter's original voicemail message was recorded too high, above the maximum resonance point, sounding tense and unnatural.

When rerecorded in the optimal resonance range, the voicemail sounds relaxed and confident without straining.

• Voicemail may be someone's first impression of you • Speaking too high can make you sound nervous, tense, or childlike • Speaking too low can make you sound forceful or aggressive • Hitting the resonance point prevents these misperceptions

• Find your maximum resonance point using the keyboard method • Re-record your voicemail message in your optimal range • Record a conversation and verify you're hitting your resonance point

Small optimizations in your voice are invisible forces that drive behavior and change people's first impressions of you.

The presenter will check future YouTube videos to ensure they stay within the perfect resonance point range.
