Cuno, I respect your knowledge of all this, but coming from a teacher, the preferable way to teach is to "show" and not just "tell".
By posting a clip, I would still just be telling you. I'd have to show you in YOUR voice in order for you to understand. Because, you see, I can show you something in my voice, and you can THINK that you're doing what I'm doing, yet still not actually be doing it. That's where the problem lies. Anyway, I'll post a clip later tonight. I don't have enough energy to do it right now.

Sorry to come off as rude, because you have done me a great good in helping me understand what my voice is up to, but I think your pedagogy is awful.
What do you expect? This is the internet. You can only get across your point (when it comes to the voice) to a limited extent online. You can get across more on the phone, but all of this stuff is best done in person. It's kind of like trying to learn to ride a bike online. You may pick up a small tip here or there, but the bulk of what you learn will be in person. Online, the best I can give is the theory behind what you're doing and some simple suggestions. Anything beyond that would require me to work with you in real time. That's why I often say you need to find someone that understands this stuff and can demonstrate it to you (which is hard because not a lot of people understand it).
