The Sing Ring by OOVO is the best tool for mastering vocal straw phonation exercises. Find your perfect resistance with four levels in one device. It's the equivalent of four different-diameter straws in your pocket, with instant switching by covering or uncovering the diamond apertures. No juggling, no swapping, no losing one in your bag. If you speak or sing at your job or hobby, the Sing Ring will help you fix vocal strain, overcome breaks, and build a stronger voice.

Who loves the Sing Ring

• Singers, especially those working to smooth out a break in their range or strengthen their voice.
• Anyone who talks all day as part of their job or hobby. The Sing Ring helps you reduce vocal strain and avoid losing your voice after a long day. Teachers, salespeople, athletic coaches, customer service staff, and public speakers all benefit from regular vocal straw exercises.
• Speakers and singers who want to build a more powerful voice through training.
• Voice users whose needs change over time. Whether you're going through vocal therapy, experiencing a change in your voice, or working toward a longer-term goal, the Sing Ring lets you change resistance levels as your needs evolve.

If you're just starting out with vocal straw exercises, or aren't sure what resistance you need, the patented Sing Ring is a great option. Work through the four resistance levels to find your preferred feel, and eventually work up to the professional-grade OOVO Vocal Straw Necklace in sterling silver, 18k gold vermeil, or 18k rose gold vermeil.

About the brass

The Sing Ring is solid antimicrobial brass: specifically C26000 cartridge brass, the alloy used for centuries in professional wind instruments and one of the copper alloys recognized by the U.S. EPA for natural antimicrobial properties. The material naturally resists odor buildup and surface degradation on the instrument over time, even with regular use.

Like any fine brass instrument, the Sing Ring develops a unique patina with daily handling. Polish it back to bright at any time using the included Care Kit, or treat the patina as a record of how much you've used it. Your call.

Note: any antimicrobial properties refer to protection of the brass instrument itself, not to the user.

How to use your Sing Ring

• Point the OOVO logo away from you. Position the ring facing up, around your middle fingertip.
• Rest the Sing Ring on the dry outer portion of your lips, not the tongue. (This avoids any metallic taste.) Sing through it. No air should pass through your nose. Hold your nose to test your form.
• Start with level 0 by vocalizing through the ring without covering any diamond-shaped holes.
• Add resistance progressively by covering the diamonds, first 1, then 2, then 3. You'll feel the pressure balance within your vocal tract, reducing stress on your vocal folds.
• Practice for 5 minutes, up to 5 times per day. Try our 12 free vocal straw exercises recommended by vocal coaches.
• Pro tip: more resistance does not always mean better exercise. Experiment to find your level.

Care

• Like other professional brass instruments, the Sing Ring should be polished and cleaned to maintain its shine.
• Polish with a clean cloth. To sanitize, rinse with mild soap and warm water, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Professional instrument polish may be used. Avoid contact with chlorine and household chemicals.
• Add the OOVO Care Kit for a polishing cloth, cleaning brush, and microsuede pouch. Everything you need to keep your Sing Ring pristine.

Common questions

How is the Sing Ring different from a regular straw? A McDonald's straw works for SOVT exercises but gives you one resistance level, no durability, no portability, and no sanitation. The Sing Ring is solid antimicrobial brass with four resistance levels in one device, fits on your fingertip, and lives in your pocket or clipped to your bag. Built for people who do vocal straw exercises daily, not occasionally.

What's the difference between the Sing Ring and the OOVO Vocal Straw Necklace? The Sing Ring is hand-held with adjustable resistance — best for people who want to experiment with multiple levels, are new to SOVT, or prefer not to wear jewelry. The Necklace is wearable with a single calibrated 3mm professional resistance — best for people who want their vocal warm-up tool on them all day, every day. Side-by-side comparison here.

Is the Sing Ring good for voice teachers and choir directors? Yes — four resistance levels in one device makes it ideal for demonstration with students at different stages of vocal development.

Is this a good gift for a singer? At $49 with four resistance levels, the Sing Ring is the best entry-level vocal warm-up tool gift. Strong fits: high-school choir kids, voice students, choir-director thank-you gifts, podcasters and voice actors starting SOVT work, holiday stocking stuffer for the singer in your life.

Is brass safe to use? Yes. Brass has been used in professional wind instruments and food utensils for centuries. The Sing Ring uses C26000 cartridge brass — the same alloy used in trumpets, trombones, and French horns.

Does it require maintenance? Polish occasionally with a soft cloth, rinse with mild soap and warm water. Brass naturally develops a unique patina with use — clean it back to bright with the OOVO Care Kit, or wear the patina as a record of use. Your call.

Can I use the Sing Ring with the OOVO Vocal Straw Necklace? Yes — many voice users own both. Use the Sing Ring at home to experiment with resistance levels and exercise variety; wear the Necklace daily for quick warm-ups anywhere.

Use it safely

Use light, sustained airflow — the device only reflects the pressure you put through it. If you have to push hard, you're pushing too hard. Stop and rest if you feel lightheaded, dizzy, short of breath, or any vocal pain. Consult your doctor before use if you have a heart, lung, or vocal condition, recent surgery, or are pregnant. Adult use only; keep away from children under 14. Read our full Safety & Use guidelines.
