Vocal Range Test
Vocal Range Test
Sing your lowest note, then your highest — get your vocal range, octave span and probable voice type. Free, in your browser, nothing recorded.
What is your vocal range?
This free vocal range test listens through your microphone while you sing your lowest comfortable note and then your highest (falsetto counts — just know it is falsetto). It tracks every stable pitch you hit, then shows your range in notes, your span in octaves, and your probable voice type. Nothing is recorded or uploaded — the analysis runs live in your browser.
How to test properly
- Find a quiet room, hit Start test and allow the microphone.
- Slide down to your lowest note that still sounds like a note (not vocal fry) and hold it a second.
- Work your way up to your highest note — head voice and falsetto count.
- Hit Show my result.
Voice types, roughly
Classical voice types are ranges where a voice sits comfortably: Bass E2–E4, Baritone A2–A4, Tenor C3–C5 for male voices; Contralto F3–F5, Mezzo-soprano A3–A5, Soprano C4–C6 for female voices. Most pop and rap vocalists live somewhere between two types — the label matters less than knowing where your voice is strong.
For scale: untrained singers typically span 1.3–2 octaves, trained singers 2–3, and the famous outliers — Mariah Carey, Axl Rose, Freddie Mercury (as commonly cited) — reach four octaves and beyond.
Range is potential. The chain makes the record.
Whatever your range, the difference between a bedroom take and a record is the chain it runs through: the right mic, compression, EQ and effects for your voice type and genre. The Vocal Chain Bible maps exactly that — 88 real chains from Grammy-winning engineers, organized by voice and style.
FAQ
Is the vocal range test free?
Yes - free forever, no sign-up. The microphone signal is analyzed in real time and never recorded or uploaded.
How accurate is it?
The pitch detector resolves well under a semitone on a clean held note. Sing one note at a time in a quiet room; vocal fry and whistle tones may not register - hold real notes.
Does falsetto count in my range?
Yes - most modern singing uses head voice and falsetto constantly. Serious classification separates chest range from full range, so note where your chest voice tops out.
What is a good vocal range?
Untrained singers usually span 1.3-2 octaves, trained singers 2-3. More important than size is control: two well-controlled octaves beat four wild ones on every record.
Can I expand my range?
Yes - consistent technique work (breath support, mixed voice) reliably adds notes at both ends. Test monthly and track the change.
