A product every singer must have

I have introduced a product recently at the 2007 Summer NAAM in Austin. Its called the Vocal Acoustic Monitor. For 30 bucks a singer never has to worry about not hearing themselves on stage regardless the environment, microphone volume or stage monitors. This decorative and functional Monitor enhances a singers voice by capturing the sound as it leaves the Mouth and goes directly to the ear.
Check out 4 info videos on youtube.com type in: Vocal Acoustic Monitor and view the videos of how the product is described. The product is extremely durable and can be personilized although you can order in custom finished.
The product is also endorsed by Jaime Vendera (shattered Glass on Myth Busters) and is a rock star voice instructor who will now performs with the VAM.

Below are one of many testimonials:

Sorry I've been slow responding to your calls - I meant to call you
last week, but as I hadn't yet gotten to dig the VAM much, I held off.

I've been using the VAM in rehearsals with my band, and so far, I'm
loving it! As I mentioned, I'm a drummer, so working the mic was never
a possibility before, and now I feel like I have a whole new level of
control over my voice. Even when I'm still using my hotspot monitor,
because of the shape of the VAM, and the fact that I end up cradling
it against the side of my face, I'm listening more to my own "mix"
than to anything else on stage!

We have a gig on Thursday, and I can't wait to see how the VAM impacts
our stage show. My girlfriend, who plays bass and sings in the group,
also loves it, and being a singer with far less choral experience, she
really benefits from the added reflections. I'll be glad to take a
photo for you and write up a brief, quotable blurb real soon.

Thanks again for such an innovative vocal tool - I'll be in touch soon
to let you know when to look for VAM in Performing Songwriter. As
promised, it was submitted for our Holiday Gift Guide in November, but
I envision a longer evaluation for the website sometime in the next
few weeks. Keep ya posted!

Byron,

I have tested the VAM with a number of students and we all agree it's a
useful tool with the utmost of enthusiasm. We really should talk at length
this week about the future and how we can work together as well as helping
each other. I look forward to speaking with you. I Voicemailed you as well
over the weekend. It's nothing but good news with small minor issues. Call
me at your earliest convenience.

Byron,
I have been using the VAM quite a bit, especially during solo practice,
songwriting sessions, and warm-ups. I have also been using it live quite a
bit at bigger venues when there is a lot of noise. The unit has worked
great for me and it has tweaked the interest of many of the area's other
musicians. I hope everything is going well for you.

Thanks,

-Jeff

I will continue to show more testimonials as they come in on VAMACOUSTICS.COM
The last page a testimonial came in with an individual saying there were minor issues, I called to find out what was the matter; it was because the product did not come with instructions of use. I figured most users would figure it out from the pictures on the packaging. From now on All new product will come with instructions of use, vocal instructions and a Vocal Warm up by Jaime Vendera.
More testimonials below.

I use my Vam on The SECRET TOUR and for rehearsal and keep one in the tool box and in my car.
A few on the tour bus. I have them everywhere in the studio, rehearsing voice overs and it cuts back on feedback,
Nice design, & one pice of equipment that will stand the test of time. It's solid and light and perfect! I don't over sing anymore. I can hear.
Thank you VAM ACOUSTICS!

Hey for the pics you can download them from http://www.phoenixbenjamin.com

For many years, I have taught my singing students to monitor themselves by
using the best monitors available. During my students' Vocal Development for
the past 27 years, I have taught my students to effectively listen to
themselves by forming a cone with their hand over their ear which allows
them to effectively sing into their ears. This tactic allows you to listen
to yourself while singing to enable you to clearly hear the tone, color and
intonation of your voice. While singing into your hand is effective, it does
not come close to hearing yourself when you use a Vocal Acoustic Monitor.
The design of the VAM allows the entire sound of your voice to get into your
ear allowing you to hear the entire spectrum of your voice from the low bass
frequencies through the mid range and up to the high treble frequencies.

The VAM is an amazing innovation that I and my students have used to listen
to yourself acoustically in ways that you've never imagined. The VAM can
also attach to an average microphone used by many live musicians and will
also give you the opportunity of hearing yourself even more effectively in a
live amplified setting. The VAM is an awesome tool that can be used in
practice, rehearsals, lessons and performance. Many of my students and
talent clients are now using the VAM with the utmost of enthusiasm. The
Healthy Voice, The Jimi Zimmardi Voice Studios and East Coast Music Talent
are proud to endorse the Vocal Acoustic Monitor for use in a wide variety of
singing settings in practice and performance.

By the way, the average price that students are
willing to pay for the VAM is $34.99 to $39.99.

VAM
Body: Hey,

I wanted to send you an endorsement for your product so here you go. Feel free to use it if you'd like. I will also help to promote it in other ways if you'd like. If you have any banners I can post them on my site, once I get some songs recorded and posted on here and other sites i'll credit the VAM as being used in the recordings, whatever you'd like. I just really enjoy the product and would like to help spread the word about it however I can.

I was given a VAM at a lesson one day with vocal coach Jaime Vendera. He had been talking about this new device he was endorsing that helps you to better hear yourself sing.

I used it during the lesson on the song Superstition by Stevie Wonder, which is a tough song, as is any Stevie song. The second I held it up to my ear, I immediately could feel and hear an improvement with my performance. I could better hear the actual tone I was producing, I could better control my intonation, and I was able to sing easily with the music playing loudly because the VAM lets you hear yourself perfectly no matter how loud any background noises are. Thanks to using the VAM while practicing, I was able to perfect the song.

I also realized that it has many more applications than just for live performance and practicing. This is the perfect device for any singer to use at a band practice or show, when they need to warm up before a show or between songs while the band is playing loudly. It brings the sound directly into your ear, making it easy for you to go backstage during an instrumental break, do a few vocal exercises to bring your voice back into shape, then go back out on stage; all without any strain from the excess volume. You could also use this in a choir or back up singing situation, where you need to hear yourself in order to stay in tune and focused with what the other singers are doing. I’ve also been using it during the recording of my CD. I leave one headphone with the music and a little bit of vocal on my left ear, and hold the VAM to my right ear and my pitch accuracy and vocal stamina is better than its ever been.
