You hear your own voice very differently from everybody else around you. Not only do you hear the air vibrations your voice produces, but your ears also pick up the vibrations that run through your body(caused by your voice). This significantly alters the way you perceice your own voice compared to the people around you.
Hearing your voice recorded will sound very weird at first, not matter how good or bad the actual quality of the recording is, but it's something you have to get used to.-SPL



Why your voice sounds different on a recording - Timothy E. Hullar in Scientific American describes the reason. The sound of your voice reaches the inner ear by two paths:
Sound conducted by air enters the auditory canal of the ear and impacts the eardrum, which transmits the sound down the middle ear and finally into the fluid filled spiral of the inner ear called the cochlea.
Sound conducted by bone travels through the medium of bone and body tissue directly to the cochlea in the inner ear.
But there's a catch...

Bone conducted sound is generally perceived to have a lower, deeper tone than sound conducted down the auditory canal.
So when you speak, what you hear as your voice is a blending of signals: one signal comes from your auditory canal, and the other signal comes from bone conduction. Since the sound of your voice originates from your head, the dominant signal is from bone conduction, which gives the sound of your own voice a deeper tone or bias. However, when you hear your own voice via a recording, the bone conduction signal is no longer dominant, and your voice will sound higher pitched than you are used to.
The bias is easy to experience. Just plug your ears and listen to yourself talk. Compare that voice to the the voice you hear with your ears unplugged. That same phenomenon is occurring when you compare the familiar sound of your own voice with the sound of your voice in a recording.-RICHARD



ask anyone, when you hear your own voice on a record, it always sounds weird. the voice you hear from yourself sounds different from what others hear because of the fact that you hear it mostly inside of your skull (what noone else does). so you hear your own voice with the full resonance of your head/skull. without that and from "outside" it mostly sounds ok, but you're not used to that. you know, naturally people wouldn't hear their own voices, that's just by technology... but well, believe your friends when they say it sounds fine, they are the ones who hear your voice as it is..-REX



you never sound the same on the recorder, but if your friends say you sound ok then you probly do, you also might just be like me a little they say your good but you still dont like your own voice. the way i figure it some people will like your voice and then some might not you simply cant please every one. If that still dosent work for you there are two other ways you can test to see for your self. one make a youtube vid of you playin with face coverd if your shy. Then read the coments, people tend to be very honest be prepared to hear the good and bad. The second way i suggest is to get a jam session together or you can go solo and play in or around a crowd and watch the peoples faces again prepar for the good and bad comments or looks.
