Voice Software Launched at AAPB Conference

Click Here to view press release.
The BFE has a number of software suites that are used in the Performing Arts field, but this is the first one specifically used for voice training. The software was well received at the recent AAPB conference in Baltimore in March. When asked about the new suite, Lawrence Klein, Vice President at Thought Technology commented, “The Voice software is a really exciting product that opens the door for biofeedback practitioners across the country to help singers improve both performance and health. Keeping the voice in top form is important, but mastering a technique that might provide the upper hand at an audition in a highly competitive industry is priceless.”

We are excited and encouraged by the initial reaction we've been receiving and the potential of this suite to assist teachers in singing around the world.We encourage you to follow our blog and share your comments about this rapidly developing field.
