- Larynx

- 5 steps in the vocal process
- Voilition, Respiration, Phonation, Resonation,Articulation.
- Voilition
- brain sending signals
- Respiration
- the muscles act in coordination to control inhilation
- Phonation
- The larynx, or voice box, consits of folds that coordinate airflow to make a buzz.
- Resonation
- enhance the buzz tone with the resonators.

- Intercostals

- Inspiration
- When oxygen is needed, the diaphragm contracts and rib cage volume is increased, assisted by the intercostal muscles.
- Respiratory action
- Inspiration, suspension, expiration, recovery.
- High Torso Breathing
- involves shoulders and upper chest.
- Middle torso breathing
- involves expansion of the ribs
- Low torso breathing
- involves greater use of low abdominal muscles.

- 3 types of Release
- Apirate (soft) release, Glottal (hard) release, Coordinated (balanced) release.
