How the Test works
- Touch Start Test The sound's been analysed on your device: it's not recorded or sent.
- He goes down with an open vocal and holds his most serious note with comfort. The test only counts a note when you keep it stable about half a second, so his noises and his loose notes don't fool him.
- Repeat up: get up slowly and hold up the sharpest note that you sing without forcing.
- The test compares your most serious note and your most acute note with the range typical of each type of voice and shows you the nearest, with the extension of your range in semitones.
Voiceover and their ranges
These ranges are oriented and reflect adult voices with some practice. Many people conveniently sing only a part of them, and that's okay. The Do4 is the central Do of the piano.
| Voice type | Approximate range | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Soprano | Lo4 (C4) a La5 (A5) | The sharpest lady's voice. |
| Mezzosoprano | La3 (A3) a F5 (F5) | Mid-term lady's voice. |
| Contralto | F3 (F3) a Re5 (D5) | The most serious woman's voice. |
| Tenor | Lo3 (C3) a La4 (A4) | The sharpest male voice. |
| Baritone | La2 (A2) a F4 (F4) | Mid male voice. |
| Bass | Mi2 (E2) a Mi4 (E4) | The most serious male voice. |
Range, tightness and type of voice aren't the same
- Range: all the notes you reach, from the most serious to the most acute, although some sound forced.
- Thesitura: The area where you have been singing with a good sound for a while. That's the most bad place to classify a voice.
- Voice type: The classification (soprano, tenor, etc.), that combines tightness with the color of the voice and with the points where you change registration.
That's why two people with the same range can have different voices. That's how they measure their range, and to refine their classification, check out what area you feel comfortable and repeat their testing at different times.
How to Know Your Voice Without Mic
with a piano, a keyboard or a piano application: play the central Do (Do4) and sing that note. Put down key by key by singing every note to the most serious that sounds clear, and then get up to as high as you can hold without tightening your throat. Write them both and share them with the board. If you want to check that you are singing the exact note, use the Refiner: He sings and sees if his needle remains at his centre.
Tips for Test
- Warm up your voice earlier: a few minutes of sirens or lips vibration are enough.
- Just get a quiet place and get the mike up to your mouth at a paddle's distance.
- He sings with an open vowel and holds every note and the test only counts stable notes.
- Don't force: The note that counts is the note that you can sing with a clear sound.
- Repeat the test another day: The voice changes with tiredness, hour and hydration.
Common errors
- Push the extreme notes: If your throat clears or your voice scattering, that note isn't a part of your tightness, even if the test checks.
- To be classified by the songs that you like: If your voice's baritone and you love a tenor, you can transport the song To your tone.
- Do the test without heating: The cold voice usually remains short at the sharp and gives a lower range to the real.
Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between range and tiesight?
The range is all your voice reaches, from the most serious to the most acute note. The tightness is the area where you sing with comfort and best sound and it's the most important to define your type of voice.
That's an exact test?
It's an orientation. The type of voice also depends on the color, the weight of the voice and where you change registration. A singing teacher can listen and confirm it.
Can my kind of voice change?
With technique, your comfortable range usually expands and with children and adolescents the voice changes with growth. That's why we have to repeat the test from time to time and we have to avoid seizing.
Do you care for children?
The voices of children are more acute and are not classified as adults. For children it's best to sing at a comfortable and unforced range and we tell you how [children's singing]](/blog/canto-para-ninos-como-cuidar-su-voz).
Do you count the distorted?

We explain that with [voice of the chest, voice of the head and distorted].](/blog/voz-de-pecho-voz-de-cabeza-y-falsete).
What's the difference between soprane and pensoprane?
The soprano sings comfortable in a more acute area, and the mezansoprane, in an intermediate area with a darker color. The range of soprano's ranges overlap to a great extent, and so the color and comfort weigh as much as the extreme notes.
