BASS!

[dorirod]

Mains power is 60Hz in a lot of countries. Something wasn't grounded properly?

That's what I suspected as well, but a little shocked that a 2006/2007 recording would have that kind of issue.

 

[Koeitje]

Some proper bass play. The entire album is a master class on how to play the bass.

Disclaimer: don't know how the Youtube version sounds, am on laptop speakers right now.

I'm not shocked by anything. So many pro recordings have clipping and other problems. Not a problem if you're only mastering for earbuds and tinny litte phone speakers.

Prepare yourself to be shocked even more and check out https://www.reddit.com/r/Productionglitches/

Some of those are so bad a 60Hz hum seems insignificant. And on big records too.

No comment about bass, only the stereo is reversed, as if "you are playing". And the look on the other guy's face is priceless, IMO.

Got two new ones, and thanks again to Hege for helping me figure out how to create the spectrograms.

Nenad Vasilić – Bass Room:

 

[RHO]

This is actually an awesome test track for many reasons.

This is a track that I've used for years - it has probably the best bass extension I've heard in a pipe organ recording.

link not available. saw the spectrum and got intrested. where can I find it please?

 

[dualazmak]

Let me join you with this;

The lowest pipe is 30 Hz, I believe. Hope you would purchase the CD for actual amazing recording quality...

Although quite belated, I successfully installed and activated Adobe Audition 3.01, and just analyzed this track "Recit de Tierce en taille" in AIFF format ripped from the physical CD DOR-90134 (not from the YouTube clip);

 

[dasdoing]

My original suggestion of 60dB scale was for the graph being clearly readable and not showing inaudible noise. Input bits have nothing to do with it.

under 40Hz we need at least 50dB

and even the test-tone-ish songs here never pass -6dBFS in that range. then we have masking, too. we cloud use a 30dB range and probably still have a safty margin
