A character changes voice while in costume. It is usually part of an attempt to disguise themselves. The voice change may be done by themselves, or done via external means, such as a mask or helmet with built-in voice modulator. More extreme cases may have a second voice actor Cast as a Mask to provide it.
This is distinct from the more appearance-oriented Clark Kenting. This is an effective way to maintain a Secret Identity and it can also suggest a case of Secret-Identity Identity if you consider that the person's two identities have totally different voices and mannerisms.
If your secret identity includes disguising as the other sex, this becomes especially necessary, since otherwise the voice will most likely be a dead giveaway.
Compare Power Makes Your Voice Deep, when accessing your power (and, usually, disguising yourself in the process) grants you a different voice. Compare Shifting Voice of Madness. Related to Professional Voice Dissonance, where a character changes their voice in order to sound more professional or authoritative; in this trope's case, the job is being a superhero.

In Batman: The Telltale Series, Batman, himself, uses an electronic voice modulator to deepen his voice. The leader of the Children of Arkham uses a mask with a modulator, as well, to conceal their true identity as Vicki Vale.

Kamen Rider Fourze does it better than any of the above, making for a hell of a Reveal: you’d never guess from the deep growly voice of one of the Big Bad’s generals (that one being Scorpion) that he’s actually a she (aka Sarina Sonoda, the mild-mannered Nice Girl teacher) and was right under the heroes’ noses all along.
From the same series, Virgo is assumed to be a female, with the womanly voice to match thanks to Rie Tanaka. Come episode 42, and it's revealed that she is actually a he - Kuniteru Emoto aka Tachibana to be precise.

In the Batman (1966) television series, Bruce Wayne was put into a situation involving him Holding Both Sides of the Conversation. Since he's on a phoneline, it's just a simple matter of switching between his Batman voice and his Bruce voice.

Arrow:
Oliver Queen uses a voice modulator that artificially deepens his voice. This not only keeps people from recognizing his celebrity voice but also works to intimidate thugs suddenly faced with a murderous and guttural archer. When pretending to be the Green Arrow, ostensibly a new vigilante taking up the mantle, he changes the modulator's pitch to further sell the illusion that he's a different person.
The Smallville version has this too.
Sara Lance uses a voice modulator similar to the Arrow's to prevent people from identifying her as the Canary.

On He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (1983), He-Man, and later She-Ra, have deeper, more resonant, voices than they do as Adam and Adora. Which is probably the biggest difference between their superhero identities and their everyday ones, since otherwise they look almost exactly the same.

In Dumbing of Age, whenever Amber changes into her Amazi-Girl disguise, her voice gets noticeably more gravelly, which is signified by the normally black text on white becoming white text on blue. Interestingly, while Amber has a split-personality disorder, the vocal shift doesn't necessarily reflect that — her Amber personality can use the Amazi-Girl voice if required and vice versa.

Dark Lord Gaol, from Kid Icarus: Uprising, has a deep and menacing voice when first encountered, due to Black Knight armor that conceals their true identity as a young woman and Magnus's old friend. When she is encountered later in the game, her normal voice is used, albeit still slightly filtered through her armor.

The deepening of Bruce Wayne's voice when he puts on the Batman costume sounds like he's gargling with gravel. Oddly, he still does this even when he's talking to people as Batman who know his secret identity.
He takes this to another level in Batman Begins where he has his normal Bruce Wayne voice, a raspy voice for talking to allies as Batman, and the gravel-gargling voice he uses when trying to scare the crap out of bad guys.

The Flash (2014): Whenever Barry Allen needs to talk to his crush as the Flash, he vibrates his vocal cords at super speed so she won't be able to recognize his voice. His Evil Counterparts, Reverse Flash, Zoom, and Savitar all use this technique to alter their voices, but they end up deepening their voices so much that people mistake them for demons. (The Rival also does this, but it’s less ominous-sounding, more akin to the Barry version.)
Zoom, Savitar, and Godspeed also use different voice actors when in costume. This is mainly done to hide the identity of the speedster from the audience. For example, Zoom is voiced by Tony Todd in costume, Savitar's costume voice is done by Tobin Bell, and Godspeed in costume is voiced by B.D. Wong.
Red Death is likewise using a voice modulator to disguise the fact that it's Ryan Wilder from another Earth.

Superman: Most versions of the character, starting with the 1940s radio serials but most famously in the adaptation mentioned in Film below, speak very differently as Kal-El than as Clark Kent: Generally he pitches the latter's voice slightly higher and affects a mild stammer, and sometimes hams up his Kansas farm-boy accent a bit, as well as altering his posture and body language to make himself seem smaller and less confident. Occasionally this is attributed to some sort of minor superpower involving "precise muscle control" or even low-key psychic powers, Depending on the Writer and continuity, but most versions explain it as Clark simply being a talented actor.

In Batman: The Animated Series, Batman has a lower, more serious voice than Bruce Wayne. The shift is far more subtle than in the Nolan films, but he seems to put it on whenever he puts the suit on, even when he's talking to people who know he is Bruce Wayne. However, from The New Batman Adventures onward in the DCAU, Bruce's voice shifted down to sound more like Batman than it used to.
This gets Played for Laughs when Superman has to impersonate Batman when he goes missing (having been kidnapped by Brainiac). His voice is spot on, his mannerisms are not. Supes then creeps out Robin when he shows that he can do his voice too, thanks to his enhanced muscular control in his voice box. Superman drops the Batman growl during his fight with Bane, grunting in pain in his own voice.

In The Loud Awakening, when the mercenaries whom Tetherby hires to kidnap the Loud children first capture Lincoln, they follow it up by getting the attention of the Loud sisters by sending them a picture of Lincoln who is in a white hospital gown, has his hands tied up behind his back and duct tape over his mouth, and is badly battered and bruised. There is also a letter that tells them they will get a call with further instructions. When they call Lori's phone, the voice of the lead merc is distorted to the point of sounding completely unrecognizable.

The Spectacular Spider-Man
Quentin Beck is a fairly mild-mannered guy, and talks in a hammy faux-British accent when being Mysterio.
The Green Goblin has a personality so different from his civilian identity that it is appropriately represented by giving the two separate voice actors. Interestingly, this version of the Goblin isn't a Split Personality.

All Might from My Hero Academia speaks in a booming and enthusiastic voice fit for a superhero; as civilian Toshinori Yagi, he sounds tired and deadpan. This has less to do with preserving a secret identity and more to do with keeping up his image as the tireless symbol of peace and justice.

Static used his electromagnetic powers to distort his voice to the point of unrecognizability in his original Milestone run and initial DCU appearances. His DCAU and Young Justice (2010) incarnations lack this trait, and it would be abandoned entirely in his 2021 comic reboot.

Daredevil (2015): Matt Murdock has a change of cadence to his voice when he is costumed up as Daredevil. As himself in public, Matt has a jovial, easygoing cadence, even in court. When in costume, he is much more terse and direct, which is noticeably different.

Ratchet & Clank
In Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando, the Thief sounds like a digitally distorted man while wearing their costume, but she has a regular-sounding female voice once the costume is off.
In Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time, at one point, Ratchet pretends to be Dr. Nefarious in order to use the laser in his space station to destroy his fleet of ships. This disguise, of course, comes with that character's voice.

In Superman: The Movie, Clark Kent has a distinctively weaker and higher pitched voice and a very different, more wishy-washy speech pattern than Superman does. This is most noticeable in a scene where he is considering confessing to Lois that he is Superman, but chickens out at the last second and resumes his weaker persona.

Spider-Man: During the Identity Crisis storyline (where Spidey was framed for murder), Peter Parker came up with four new costumed identities, including the Hornet. After a new conference where the Hornet claimed "You won't need to worry about Spider-Man anymore", he was confronted by the Human Torch. Peter notes that he changed his voice as Spider-Man and changed it again as Hornet, but wasn't sure if he could fool the Torch, who was one of his oldest friends. Luckily, Johnny is more concerned about making sure that Hornet understands that Spidey has at least four very, very powerful friends, and that if he learned Hornet somehow harmed the webhead there'd be hell to pay.
Also, in the early days this was used to Hand Wave why no one recognized him as Peter Parker when he was Spider-Man because his mask muffled his voice.

Arrowverse
Arrow:
Oliver Queen uses a voice modulator that artificially deepens his voice. This not only keeps people from recognizing his celebrity voice but also works to intimidate thugs suddenly faced with a murderous and guttural archer. When pretending to be the Green Arrow, ostensibly a new vigilante taking up the mantle, he changes the modulator's pitch to further sell the illusion that he's a different person.
The Smallville version has this too.
Sara Lance uses a voice modulator similar to the Arrow's to prevent people from identifying her as the Canary.
The Flash (2014): Whenever Barry Allen needs to talk to his crush as the Flash, he vibrates his vocal cords at super speed so she won't be able to recognize his voice. His Evil Counterparts, Reverse Flash, Zoom, and Savitar all use this technique to alter their voices, but they end up deepening their voices so much that people mistake them for demons. (The Rival also does this, but it’s less ominous-sounding, more akin to the Barry version.)
Zoom, Savitar, and Godspeed also use different voice actors when in costume. This is mainly done to hide the identity of the speedster from the audience. For example, Zoom is voiced by Tony Todd in costume, Savitar's costume voice is done by Tobin Bell, and Godspeed in costume is voiced by B.D. Wong.
Red Death is likewise using a voice modulator to disguise the fact that it's Ryan Wilder from another Earth.
Batwoman (2019): In the reverse of the standard where the heroic person has a more guttural voice, Kate Kane has a noticeable vocal fry whereas Batwoman tends to speak without it.

Sword Art Online: In the anime adaptation of the Phantom Bullet arc, the normally shy Shino speaks in a slightly deeper, rougher voice when in-game as the Cold Sniper Sinon. Meanwhile, the Dude Looks Like a Lady avatar that Kirito receives in this arc initially distorts his voice into a falsetto, but it's forgotten as the story gets more serious. In addition, Death Gun wears a mask that deepens and distorts his voice. This helps conceal the fact that "Death Gun" is actually a shared identity. When Death Gun first appears, his manner of speaking is highly dramatic due to him being controlled by the young and impulsive Kyoji Shinkawa; but when Kirito encounters him later, his cadence is much softer and calmer, since he is controlled by the more experienced elder brother Shouichi.
In the spinoff Sword Art Online Alternative: Gun Gale Online, a number of characters have higher or lower voices in-game due to using avatars with a vastly different body type from their own, with one exception of Miyu who keeps her real-life voice and mannerism when playing her small-sized avatar Fukaziroh.
