Other people, as well as microphones, only detect the part of your voice transmitted through the air. However, your skull and flesh conduct sound as well, so you hear a combination of the airborne sound, and the sound that travels directly through your head to your ears. This is why your own voice sounds strange when played back from a recording.

OMG specific! i found out that as quickly as i became in center college, and each time I heard my recorded voice, i became like "gahh! what's that?" i think of it has some thing to do with the way that the sound waves reverberate by using your cranium before they attain your ears---it rather is why it sounds diverse listening to your self in case you're speaking, as antagonistic to once you pay attention a recording (which comes from an exterior source).

You tend to hear your voice partly through your jaw (and skull) bones and partly through your eardrum. Since other people hear only what is sent through the air, it is different from how YOU hear it. People who speak for a living, particularly radio personalities, learn to control their voice by practicing with recordings, so that they can hear themselves as others hear them.

You are hearing from the inside.
They hear the sound on the outside.

Because of the reverb in your own head.
