How to find your vocal range
Step 1: Press Start and allow the microphone
Your browser asks once. The sound is measured live in the page and is never recorded or sent anywhere. No microphone? Drop in a recording of yourself singing instead.
Step 2: Sing low, then high
Slide down to the lowest note you can sing comfortably and hold it, then up to the highest and hold that. A note counts once it has been held for 0.3 seconds, so scoops and cracks on the way don't.
Step 3: Read your range
Your lowest and highest notes appear as note names and hertz, on a keyboard, with the voice type the range is closest to.
At a glance
| Input | Your microphone, live; or a recording of you singing (WAV, MP3, M4A/AAC, FLAC, OGG and AIFF, or the sound track of an MP4 or MOV video. Decoding is the browser's own, so a format it can't read is refused, never guessed.) |
|---|---|
| Pitch range heard | 60 Hz to 1,400 Hz (about B1 to F6) |
| A note counts after | Being held within half a semitone for 0.3 seconds |
| Voice types | Soprano C4–A5, Mezzo-soprano A3–F5, Alto F3–D5, Tenor C3–A4, Baritone A2–F4, Bass E2–E4 |
| Length | The first 3 minutes; a longer file is cut to that, not refused |
| File size | Up to 100 MB for an audio file; a video up to 4 GB if its sound is under 20 minutes |
| Output | Your lowest and highest held notes (note name and Hz), shown on a keyboard, and the closest voice type. Nothing is saved |
| Runs on your device | Yes. The file is read and processed in your browser tab and never uploaded |
| Sign-up | Not needed |
| Daily limit | None: there is no usage counter or cap |
How the test works
The page reads the microphone about sixty times a second and finds the pitch of your voice with YIN, the same pitch detector as the free tuner, from 60 Hz to 1,400 Hz. A reading only becomes a note once it has stayed within half a semitone for 0.3 seconds. That is what makes it a range test rather than a noise test: the slide into a note, a crack at the top or a breath at the bottom passes through pitches you can't sing on purpose, and none of them count.
Your range is the lowest and highest notes you held. Note names use scientific pitch, where middle C is C4 and A4 is 440 Hz, so an E2 is the low E string of a guitar and a C6 is a soprano's high C.
What the voice type means, honestly
The voice type is the textbook range your notes are closest to: soprano C4–A5, mezzo-soprano A3–F5, alto F3–D5, tenor C3–A4, baritone A2–F4, bass E2–E4. Choirs and teachers use those ranges, but a range alone does not decide a voice type. Voice teachers also listen to where your voice is comfortable for a long time (its tessitura), its colour, and where it changes gear between registers, and none of that is in two notes.
So read the result as a starting point. Many voices sit between two types, and the page says so when yours does. Ranges also grow with warm-up and practice: test after singing for ten minutes, and again in a few months.
Getting a true reading
Sing at a comfortable volume in a quiet room, without music playing; the detector follows the loudest pitch it hears. Hold each note steadily rather than touching it. Count only notes you could sing in a song: a strained top note or a growled bottom note will widen the range without telling you much.
Falsetto and head voice count as notes too, which is right for a singer's full range but can make a tenor read as an alto. If you want your chest-voice range, stop where your voice flips. Whistle register sits above what this page listens for.
Questions
- What is my vocal range?
- The span from the lowest to the highest note you can sing. Press Start, sing your lowest and highest comfortable notes, and this page shows them as note names (like G2 to E4) and in hertz, with the voice type that range is closest to.
- How do I find my voice type?
- Sing your range here and the page names the closest of six types: soprano, mezzo-soprano, alto, tenor, baritone, bass. It's an estimate from range alone; a voice teacher also listens to tone and where your voice is comfortable.
- What is a normal vocal range?
- Most untrained adults can sing about an octave and a half; trained singers often two octaves or more. The textbook voice-type ranges each span up to about two octaves, from bass (E2–E4) up to soprano (C4–A5).
- Is my voice recorded or uploaded?
- No. The microphone is measured live inside your browser tab and nothing is recorded, saved or sent. A recording you drop in is read in the tab too.
- Does it work on an iPhone?
- Yes, in Safari or any browser on iOS 14.5 or later. Tap Start, then Allow when Safari asks. If you tapped Don't Allow, turn the microphone back on for this site in Settings → Safari → Microphone, or from the aA menu → Website Settings.
- Why didn't my note count?
- A note counts once it has been held within half a semitone for 0.3 seconds. A very quiet or breathy note, or one with music playing behind it, may not register; sing a little louder and steadier.
- Is it free?
- Yes. No sign-up and no limit: it runs on your device.
