@ieatass69 google says why your voice sounds higher on recordings not sounding deeper but im pretty sure you just fucking with me

bing it

It's true; your voice does sound different on recordings compared to how you hear it in your head. This discrepancy arises because when you speak, the sound waves travel through the air and also through the bones in your head, which can make your voice sound fuller or deeper to you. However, a recording captures only the air-travelled sound waves, presenting a version of your voice that seems unfamiliar. [Copilot's answer]

true! Voices travel through air to other people, and through bone conduction to us! If you have a plastic comb, vibrate its teeth in the air and listen to them, then bite the comb and vibrate again.

everyone does

@HoangDinh i don't cus my brain is empty so it's effectively the same as transmission through air

With most microphones, you can adjust your distance and positioning to change frequency response - this is called 'proximity effect,' and can be used to offset some of this effect by getting closer to the mic. However, the closer you get, the more pronounced plosives and breath noise will become, so there is a trade-off.
