Melody Tuning
Elvis would go into the recording studio and all his band members would be there waiting … He would sit at the piano and start tuning his voice to melodies of songs. The first song he would always play and tune to was “Lead Me, Guide Me” a gospel favorite of his. He would mostly play gospel songs while other backup singers would join in singing harmony. He would do this for an about two hours while his band members would wait for him to start the recording session.

OBJECTIVE
Your ear listens and tunes into the frequency of the note while your voice matches it and you see and feel the notes on the keyboard. This conditions the subconsciousand muscles to sing the correct pitches. This is for people who are just starting and know how to form the chord of the scale but don't know the full fingering of the whole scale. Also good for a quick tuning.
