It seems as though, I have two voices, neither of which sound ok to me. My first voice, the one that I use has a certain 'twain' i guess is the best way to describe it. my second voice is much deeper, but i tend to get caught on certain syllables sometimes. My volume range is also much better in my second voice than my first. The reason why I dont just use the other full time is the fact that I have to change it, and I dont know if i can deal with the awkwardness of the first day or two. (But ill deal with the awkwardness of my first voice for years right? Doesnt make sense)

Heres the video: http://tinypic.com/player.php?v=822wdig&s=1

Note: I dont speak that fast normally and the camera/video seems to skip allittle, which it shouldn;t. I couldnt think of what to say off the top of my head so I wrote it down, and I had already done it a couple times so I was sick of it. Another note is that my first voice sounds much better in that video than in real life when im under pressure. It is normally a bit higher and tends to break often.

I would be interested in knowing just how you managed to develop two entirely different speaking voices. I've known people with the same tendencies, but I've never gotten around to asking them how this came to be.

Certain surgeries can change the tone and depth of your voice. You could always claim to have had one of those operations.

Video did not work. Will try again later. Your voice could not be as different as mine..

I liked the second one.

watch the video, youll be surprised. It isnt my accent or speaking pattern, its my actual voice, youll see.

What do you guys think would be my best method to change over to my second voice? I cannot do it gradually, but if i say "I have two voices, and have decided to use this one" people may not understand. Well maybe they would, but it would be pretty weird. Plus, I know its gunna sound like crap for atleast a couple days. The other problem is that I dont think i'll be able to change back once I start using the second one, so I have to be sure of my decision.

I posted this on the "reinvent Yourself" forum also and they seem to think I should do it immediately, but I dont think they understand how big of a deal this is for me. Of course I know my second voice sounds better, but im not sure if its worth all the trouble changing it over right now. I know the sooner the better, but not if i have to go through a bunch of shit. I kind of wish I did it this past summer, put I am always wishing i did it sooner. I shouldnt delay anymore, but I know I will. If I set a date there is no way I will stick too it.

How old are you?

My gut feeling is that eventually you will only be able to use the second one.
