Steve, Thanks for the response. I sincerely hope it is a problem with breath control and I am committed to working on it and finding out. The asymmetry diagnosis just seemed to fit after I read the following:
"The modes of vibration of two oscillators (left and right vocal folds) have to be entrained (drawn into synchrony and rhythm) by a common airflow to produce nearly periodic vibration. Unfortunately, there is often an asymmetry in the larynx that causes desynchronization of the vocal fold movement. The result is the emergence of subharmonics and low frewquency modulations (bifurcations) that are perceived as roughness or unsteadiness in the voice"
From my interpretation, it seemed like asymmetry could be the cause for the 'two voices' because of the subharmonics, but I don't know. I do hope it's just breath control tough. Your response gives me hope.
Thanks.
