AnimalMother - could probably explain it. I'm sure it has something to do with how your voice is projected when you speak versus hearing it when your not actually speaking. I mean I have no idea but it seems somewhat plausible to me. I'm sure there is plenty of info out there about it.

http://www.helium.com/items/658633-the-reason-your-voice-sounds-different-when-its-recorded

"When you hear your voice recorded for the first time, it isn't usually something that you enjoy. It is a shock. Some wonder, "What's wrong with this equipment." Others are just stunned and flabbergasted.

It is actually quite a simple phenomenon though. How we think we sound is different then how we really sound.

Under normal circumstances our hearing is due to the sound waves on the air reaching our ears, "banging" our ear drums (yep that was a bad pun), vibrating the bones of the inner ear, stimulating the hair cells within the cochlea, changing into electronic signals which are then sent to the brain for interpretation. It is an amazing process, but the interpretation of sound is all based on sound waves.

There are a few things that can alter sound. For speaking purposes, the reason your voice sounds different when you speak then when you hear a recording of yourself is simple, it's all in your head. Not that you have gone crazy or anything, but the tissues and bones of your head effect the sound you hear. Your cochlea is stimulated by sound waves through the normal process, but also by the vibrations of your bones from the action of speaking. It causes you to hear yourself in two parts, the first out in the air through sound waves, and the second within yourself as vibrations.

The answer is simple, it's all in your head, literally!"

i know that somebody programmed a converter based on a psychophysical model of language production/perception to make a recorded voice sound like the speaker would hear it in his head. Intensive googling hasnt yielded any results though. My search terms seem to be "teh sux", sorry. The result wasnt that great anyways, but it was nice to play around with

Yeah, I was gonna say the majority of the bass you hear in your own voice comes from the internal vibrations traveling through the tissues in your head and reverberating in the gases of your lungs .

A good way to get an impression of the difference is to record yourself humming without opening your mouth. The recording will have a lot less depth then is seemed from your perspective.

You do see something different, but not because of physical reasons, but psychological ones. Women tend to see more flaws, while men often see less flaws than there really are.

I totally agree. I have that problem. I have been told I see something totally different.

Everyone's voice sounds different through a recording device. My voice sounds like 5 times as deep as it is. Tho I do have a deep, scratchy (somewhat) voice

That's not exactly true because your reflection in the mirror is virtually inverted. For e.g. if you part your hair on the right side, your reflection appears to have its hair parted on the left side.

its alot of things. And differently accentuated for every individual depending on the actual body. The main difference is the sound that is transferred via the skull. If you have a guitar or a tuning fork, you can feel the difference by letting either one touch your head when they are vibrating, to "hear" the difference in perceived loudness and tone via the bone conduction.
