I've tried everything. Literally just everything. Videos upon videos, techniques, singing, forcing a higher pitch and a lower resonance, but nothing works to make my voice sound like anything other than an effeminate gay man.
Part of the problem is that my voice is extremely nasal, and I really want to fix it. I always have somewhat of a stuffy nose, from allergies mostly, but I don't know how much of a problem that is. I'm just very nasal and I would really like to know some good tips to fix this.

There's a recording of my voice. Sorry the audio is kind of funky, I'm not entirely sure why it's like that. As you can tell though, my voice is pretty nasal. While it doesn't really sound all that masculine, at least not in a traditional way, it still sounds a lot more masculine that feminine.
What sort of things I can do to fix it? I need to see a vocal coach, I know that, but the only one around here is booked out.
You can add breath to your voice. If I can figure out how, I'll get you a copy of an instructional disk that my voice instructor made that goes over exactly how to do that. No way I can describe it.
Any ideas on doing that would help.
Hugs,

An instructional disk? You could probably rip it off the CD on something like Windows Media Player and send it via email?
I don't know, to be honest. I'd have to see it. But that'd be super helpful if you could find a way to get that to me, or find something else similar that explains it.
Thanks!
