Hi, sorry if this is a nooby question, but I'm wondering from the people who have trained their voice, can you retain both your original voice and your trained voice, or does your voice permanently change to the trained voice?
When you train your voice its best to stack to that voice range until you get really comfortable. Of course you can always switch back to the old voice, its a matter of pitch and resonance.
The vocal chords remain the same, I've found it's just the way we use them - however, when I use my old voice it actually physically hurts my throat doing so. Even if it's just a few words.
