Of course the laws of physics dictate that anything that can be sensed aurally can be measured,
Hmmm....
I wouldn't agree.
Placebo effects are sensed.

This fft corresponds to what signal?completely and with no loss of information.
This is correct and wrong at the same time.There are no "Things that cannot be measured" but can be heard.
But there are Things that cannot be measured with (long)FFT that can be heard.
Actually they don't look identical. "Frequency Response" means a FR of magnitude and phase and when you have one FFT block of FR data you can go back to the original time-domain signal by iFFT (with any FFT window implicitely applied to that reconstruction, which is why, for example, FFT/iFFT-based convolvers don't use any window functions).This fft corresponds to what signal?

It's of cause a trick question because they look identical in the frequency domain jet they are clearly different in time domain
Everything you said is true. But i was refereeing to FFT in the way it is presented and used here as just a 2D plot without Complex numbers.Actually they don't look identical. "Frequency Response" means a FR of magnitude and phase and when you have one FFT block of FR data you can go back to the original time-domain
Yes that's my other point why i said "(long)", a long FFT over many seconds of data will "smear" the effect. Other techniques should be used for that kind of issues.
Oh come off it. If it can be pressed in a slab of vinyl, it can be completely, exhaustively measured.I'm in the "things that haven't yet been measured" camp. It find it too smug to claim we know every measurable parameter of things at present.
The Mathematical concept works if implemented correctly.No the FFT is simply a mathematical algorithm "appears vs actually" here has no meaning.
I hope I could answer that viable question in my previos posts.An example in audio would be the spectrum of distortion products, which are often subsumed under THD. What about even vs. odd? And what about crossover distortion? How much of that can we hear - going from A to B? Or... back down?
Eastern designers often have a philosophy that allows a co-exisitence of being fully technical and objective down to minute details and being subjectivist "tinkerers" at the same time, without going split-personality.The biggest uh-oh in these Yamaha claims is that they "tune" the sound ? when they fully well know that it can be made transparent and probably is tuned or not ? There is nothing to "tune" in the sense of a musical instrument .
And here I was thinking the guy was rather adept at using marketing-speech; know thine customer-base and suchlike.Eastern designers often have a philosophy that allows a co-exisitence of being fully technical and objective down to minute details and being subjectivist "tinkerers" at the same time, without going split-personality.

Emotion. Can an instrument measure the emotion of a performance or the emotional impact of a particular song or passage has upon an individual?
