dre,
reading this line was like getting to the punchline of a long joke (and well worth it). thank you for the details of what you did. as i don't have the capabilities to listen and view the materials, it was most helpful.
i think your observations on the value of taping oneself being of more value than spectral readings (audio vs. visual) are correct. i have always been astonished by the number of singers who don't tape themselves refering to their voice teachers as 'a pair of ears i can trust' (what is wrong with the pair of ears on the sides of their heads? i wonder).
i wish i had better recording equipment. but, the $20 tape recorder i have shows me what i do, which i find more interesting than how i exactly sound.
