Abstract
An experiment with excised larynges was undertaken to investigate theinteraction between acoustic pressures in a pseudotrachea and the amplitude of vibration of the vocal folds. Pressure was measured beneath the vocal folds at three specific moments of the vibratory cycle: (a) when the superior margin of the vocal folds began to separate, (b) when the vocal folds were maximally apart, and (c) when the inferior margin of the vocal folds began to touch. Results indicate that in half the larynges investigated, the maximum amplitude of vibration increased as a function of: (a) increased positive pressure at the moment of opening, and (b) reduced subglottal pressure when the vocal folds were maximally apart. The implications of these experiments regarding involuntary register transitions related to trachea resonance are discussed in light of a previously proposed register theory.
