In brief, I believe both vocalis and cricothyroid should be active at all times in singing and that the balance between their contributions is significant to the timbre.
Lloyd, Did I miss a response to this assertion (in response to your original post on registration changes). I must say that I think in terms (not very scientific probably!) of blending the two registers to such an extent that I feel as though I always have a bit of both in virtually every pitch of my range, with varying percentages of each depending on whether I'm going higher or lower. My registers are very well integrated and function well in a variety of singing styles, but I would like to be secure in the scientific knowledge of what is happening as I teach this to others.
Appreciate any further illumination! Sharon Szymanski
