Differences Among Mixed, Chest, and Falsetto Registers: A Multiparametric Study.

Introduction: Typical singing registers are the chest and falsetto; however, trained singers have an additional register, namely, the mixed register. The mixed register, which is also called "mixed voice" or "mix," is an important technique for singers, as it can help bridge from the chest voice to falsetto without noticeable voice breaks.

Objective: The present study aims to reveal the nature of the voice-production mechanism of the different registers (chest, mix, and falsetto) using high-speed digital imaging (HSDI), electroglottography (EGG), and acoustic and aerodynamic measurements.
