What's included?

1. What is Vocal Arrangement and Why You Need It

A boring arrangement can make the average ear pass over a stellar voice. Here, you’ll learn the difference between “just singing harmony” and actually shaping a memorable moment.

$30.00 → $1!

2. The Melody Is Your Cheat Sheet

The melody already tells you where harmony and stacks want to go. You’ll learn how to pull direction, spacing, and movement straight from the lead vocal. This makes arranging faster and way more intentional.

3. The Art of Blend: Making Your Stacks Sound Like One Voice

Stacking isn’t about singing louder — it’s about sounding unified. You’ll learn how vowel shape, timing, and tone choices affect blend. This is how stacks stop sounding like separate people and start sounding polished.

$30.00 → $1!

4. Can You ACTUALLY Harmonize?

This is a quick check-in on how you respond to melody. You’ll revisit harmonic basics and know if you have more to learn!

$30.00 → $1!

5. Controlling the Intensity of Your Arrangement

Not every section should sound the same to get the best effect. Here you’ll learn how to make arrangement choices that control energy without changing the song itself.

$30.00 → $1!
