The vocal process is the anterior angle of the base of the arytenoid cartilage, as it projects horizontally forward and gives attachment to the vocal ligament.
First you inhale to your lungs. The voice box, or larynx in the middle in your throat, is, obviously, the source of your voice. Inside your larynx is the vocal folds. To create voice the vocal folds must be together. When they come together to create a voice they vibrate so quickly, 440 times a second, that an eye cannot see it to create a sound. The sounds from the vibrations come up your throat and out your mouth as whatever you say. You can make different sound by lengthening, shortening, relaxing, or tensing your vocal folds, though you don’t really think about it. When you talk with a deeper voice you’re lengthening and relaxing vocal muscles. When you talk with a higher voice you’re tightening your vocal folds and making them smaller. The main parts of voice production are the larnyx, the resonators, and the lungs obviously.This article incorporates text from a public domain edition of Gray's Anatomy. {}

“Prayer is
The world in tune,
A spirit-voice,
And vocal joys,
Whose echo is Heavens bliss.”
