Hi Rich:
        Tis true old bean.  I have noticed up to 4 areas of a voice that can 
be dealt with.  But, you have to recognize the difference between the true 
`singer', the `vocalist' and `character' voice.
Some poor dweebs have a single tembor and they sound peeyucky.
The best duals I've heard for example is Sandy Patty, a gospel singer, Lanza 
had a dual tembor but he was a strain artist.  The guy was a forced singer.  
Licquor and heart problems finally killed him.
But, with all the straining, it's no wonder.
         For a brief lesson for yourself, find a very old recording of Frank 
Sinatra, then a current recording.  You will note a very definite difference. 
 Frank Sinatra is not the same as he was in the younger days.  His vocal down 
fall came when the Doctors removed polyps from his throat.  It changed his 
vocal instrument co that he lost his upper register of tembor.  His voice now 
is a flat texture sound.  Not tone or note wise, but simply his voice box got 
messed with.
        I believe, given the proper equipment, I could make a mediocre singer 
or vocalist sound 5 times better through a sound system.  Shucks, I could 
even make my wife sound good for that matter, but she's contrary too much of 
the time.
