I have a little trick I do on my recordings. I find the most comfortable key to sing my song in. Then lower it a half-step or step, depending on where it will end up. Then I get up early in the morning and record the vocal in that lower key. Later in the day I would struggle a little to sing that low.





I was recently trying to learn a song from a CD, and it bugged me that it was in the key of Eb because that's tough on guitar even with a capo. I loved the deep vocals in the song. Anyway, to learn it more easily I loaded it into Audacity and raised it a half step to the key of E. When I heard the vocal in that key I immediately realized they had recorded it in E and then dropped it to deepen the singers voice. Comparing the two versions I was surprised how much better the "deeper" voice sounded.
