Find your vocal range by singing your lowest and highest comfortable notes into your microphone. This free online vocal range test names the notes you reach, shows the distance between them in semitones and octaves, and places your range on a piano keyboard.
Already know your notes? Choose them manually instead. Start the voice range test below, then use the result to understand your range and explore a separate voice task if you need one. Microphone audio is analysed in your browser; the tool says it is not recorded or uploaded.

How to Take the Vocal Range Test
Use comfortable notes you can repeat. You can sing into the microphone to find them, or select notes you already know.
Sing your lowest and highest notes
- Choose Sing, press Start the test, and allow microphone access.
- Sing “ah” and slide down slowly. Hold a clear, comfortable low note steadily, then choose Save lowest note.
- Slide upward and save the highest note you can hold clearly without pushing or straining.
- Read the result. If an endpoint seems wrong, use Retest lowest or Retest highest.
Choose notes you already know
- Choose Choose notes instead of Sing.
- Select your lowest and highest comfortable notes from the C2–C7 lists, which also show approximate frequencies.
- Press Show my range to see the same kind of note-span and comparison result.
Need help identifying a note first? Use the note identifier, then return to this test with both endpoints.
What Your Voice Range Result Shows
Your result starts with the lowest and highest comfortable notes you saved or selected. Together they describe the span of this test, such as E2–G4. The tool also shows each endpoint’s approximate frequency in hertz (Hz). Frequency identifies pitch; it is not a score for voice quality or singing skill.
- Semitone span
- The number of half steps between the two endpoints. Twelve semitones equal one octave.
- Octave span
- The same distance expressed in octaves. The tool rounds this number for display.
- Piano keyboard
- Shows where the saved low and high notes sit within the displayed keyboard range.
- Closest voice type
- A range-overlap comparison with typical categories. It is an estimate based on endpoints, not a definitive classification.
The endpoints do not tell you which notes in between feel easiest to sing. That comfortable part of a range is often called tessitura. For a full list of note names, see the vocal range notes guide; for the broader concept, see what tessitura means.
Example: E2 to G4 Is 27 Semitones
Suppose your lowest comfortable note is E2 and your highest is G4. E2 to E4 is two octaves, or 24 semitones. E4 to G4 adds three semitones, making 27 semitones in total.
27 semitones ÷ 12 = 2.25 octaves
The tool displays this example as 2.3 octaves because it rounds to one decimal place. The span is two full octaves and three more semitones. It does not mean every note from E2 to G4 is equally comfortable or controlled. You can enter E2 and G4 in Choose notes mode to see the result, then replace them with your own notes.
How to Read the Voice Type, Singer and Song Suggestions
Closest voice type
The label compares your measured range with typical voice-type ranges. Neighbouring categories overlap, and your tone, comfortable middle, vocal weight and technique also matter. Treat the label as a starting point. The voice type test is a distinct next step, while the vocal range chart shows the usual note spans in more detail.
Singers and songs to try
The result offers singers grouped with the estimated voice type and songs as practice ideas. It does not measure your timbre or prove that you sound like a listed singer. A song’s original key may still place its melody outside your comfortable area, so adjust the key or choose another song when needed.
Get a More Reliable Range
Before and during the test
- Warm up gently and test in a quiet room without music playing.
- Hold the microphone at a steady distance for both low and high notes.
- Sing a clear open vowel at a comfortable volume. Save notes you can repeat, not a one-off squeak or creaky sound.
- Stop if you feel pain, tightness or strain. A wider number is not the goal of a useful result.
For a gentle preparation routine, use the vocal warm-up generator.
If a note or microphone seems wrong
Check the browser’s microphone permission and make sure the correct input is selected on your device. Try again in a quieter room. Very soft, breathy or unstable tones can confuse pitch detection, sometimes by an octave. Retest only the endpoint that looks wrong, or switch to Choose notes if you already know both notes.
Your measured range can vary with warm-up, fatigue and technique. Compare repeat tests under similar conditions rather than treating one attempt as a permanent limit.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is my vocal range?
It is the span between the lowest and highest notes you can sing with control. Use the microphone mode above to find those notes, or select endpoints you already know.
How do I find my vocal range without a piano?
Choose Sing and hold your comfortable low and high notes. The test names them for you. If you cannot use a microphone, choose notes manually after identifying them with another instrument or the pitch detector.
Do falsetto or whistle notes count?
Decide which registers you want to include and label your result accordingly. Compare like with like when you retest. A repeatable high note may be part of your full range, while your comfortable song range can be narrower.
Does a wider range mean a better singer?
No. The endpoint distance says nothing by itself about pitch accuracy, control or expression. Use the pitch accuracy test for the separate task of matching target notes.
Is the test free, and is my singing recorded?
The test is free and works in a current phone or desktop browser with microphone permission. The tool says its audio analysis stays in the browser and does not record or upload your voice.

Method and Limitations
In microphone mode, the tool estimates the pitch of the notes you sing and saves your comfortable low and high endpoints. In Choose notes mode, you provide those endpoints yourself. It then counts the semitones between them and divides by 12 for an octave span. The display rounds the octave number, so use the semitone count when you want the exact note distance.
The result depends on the notes you choose or sing on that attempt. Background sound, unstable notes, device input and strain can affect a microphone test. A range-overlap voice-type label cannot evaluate timbre, tessitura, technique or vocal health. Retest a questionable endpoint and consult a qualified voice teacher when you need an individual singing assessment.
