The acoustic analysis of the voice is widely applied all over the world. But in some clinics the estimation of the vocal function quality includes only the auditory perceptual analysis of the voice. It is not sufficient for the patients using their voices professionally therefore the examination of the professionals must include the «objective» computer acoustic and electroglottographic methods in addition to the auditory perceptual methods of the voice analysis.

The purpose of our model of an acoustic analysis among voice professionals and non-professionals consists of providing the regular approach in the examination of the different patients. An attempt will be made to teach attendees how to elicit various problems with their own voices. 

We have analyzed the indications for the medical treatment and research of professionals and non-professionals of the voice having voice disorders, and also for healthy people.

We have developed the technique of voice recording and its subsequent computer analysis depending on the professional group. We have developed the algorithm of the definition of the voice type.

The conclusion: the application of our model of the analysis of the voice allows to reveal thin changes of the vocal function and defines the differentiated methods of the correction of vocal frustrations taking into account the received acoustic parameters and the features of professional work. It helps to achieve the steady positive results in the complex rehabilitation of the vocal function.
