    1980s grindcore groups, such as Napalm Death in the sound clip to the right, used a very heavy, distorted bass tone that resembles the sound of a grinding buzz saw. Darkglass bass overdrive pedal on a 6 string bass. The simplest fuzz bass pedals have knobs for controlling the volume level, the tone, and the fuzz or overdrive effect.

    The sound appears to pulsate only when heard through both earphones. Time duration of 10 seconds Binaural Beats Base tone 200 Hz, beat frequency from 7 Hz to 12.9 Hz. Time duration of 9 minutes. "Binaural beats were first discovered by physicist Heinrich Wilhelm Dove in 1839.

  4. Sound intensity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_intensity

    Sound intensity, also known as acoustic intensity, is defined as the power carried by sound waves per unit area in a direction perpendicular to that area, also called the sound power density and the sound energy flux density. [2] The SI unit of intensity, which includes sound intensity, is the watt per square meter (W/m 2).

  5. Clipping (audio) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clipping_(audio)

    Many electric guitar players intentionally overdrive their amplifiers (or insert a "fuzz box") to cause clipping in order to get a desired sound (see guitar distortion).. Some audiophiles believe that the clipping behavior of vacuum tubes with little or no negative feedback is superior to that of transistors, in that vacuum tubes clip more gradually than transistors (i.e. soft clipping, and ...

  6. Loudspeaker enclosure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudspeaker_enclosure

    The primary role of an enclosure is to prevent sound waves generated by the rearward-facing surface of the diaphragm of an open speaker driver interacting with sound waves generated at the front of the speaker driver. Because the forward- and rearward-generated sounds are out of phase with each other, any interaction between the two in the ...

  7. Audio system measurements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_system_measurements

    Steep slope crossover filters are most effective at IMD reduction, but may be too expensive to implement using high-current components and may introduce ringing distortion. [5] Intermodulation distortion in multi-driver loudspeakers can be greatly reduced with the use of active crossover, though it significantly increases system cost and ...

    Bass voice range. [1] Alberti bass in Mozart's Piano Sonata, K 545 opening. Play ⓘ. Bass (/ b eɪ s / BAYSS) (also called bottom end) [2] describes tones of low (also called "deep") frequency, pitch and range from 16 to 250 Hz (C 0 to middle C 4) [3] and bass instruments that produce tones in the low-pitched range C 2-C 4.

  9. Reverberation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverberation

    Reverberation time is a measure of the time required for the sound to "fade away" in an enclosed area after the source of the sound has stopped. When it comes to accurately measuring reverberation time with a meter, the term T 60 [ 6 ] (an abbreviation for reverberation time 60 dB) is used.
