this is the thread i am least confident in in terms of inclusions and thresholds of the ones ive made so far so if anyone has any suggestions throw em my way

[Homelander]

Excellent singer and thread! :)

[Macca]

I think his highs should start at F4

[brookesquatchy]

i thought considering his placement E4 may have been overinclusion but i will see what others think before i cut the E4 section.

also if anyone has any bold suggestions i'll gladly consider them i just feel like i wasn't thinking too hard about it while notewatching to make calls on what specifically was boldworthy

[Osmosis]

I like that you separated the vocal range into highest black note and blue note, I've been thinking about doing that in my threads for a while now

I think E4 is a fine threshold.
