  2. Infrasound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrasound

    In music, acoustic waveguide methods, such as a large pipe organ or, for reproduction, exotic loudspeaker designs such as transmission line, rotary woofer, or traditional subwoofer designs can produce low-frequency sounds, including near-infrasound. Subwoofers designed to produce infrasound are capable of sound reproduction an octave or more ...

  3. Low-frequency oscillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-frequency_oscillation

    For example, by modulating the cutoff frequency of a low-pass filter to create a distinctive opening-and-closing effect. Due to the popularization of these genres, the LFO wobble is now being found in other forms of electronic dance music such as house music. LFO is commonly used in future bass music to enhance synthesisers, along with side-chain.

  4. Bass trap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bass_trap

    Examples of resonating type bass traps include a rigid container with one or more portholes or slots (i.e. Helmholtz resonator), or a rigid container with a flexible diaphragm (i.e. membrane absorber). Resonating type bass trap achieves absorption of sound by sympathetic vibration of some free element of the device with the air volume of the room.

  5. Missing fundamental - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_fundamental

    For example, when a note (that is not a pure tone) has a pitch of 100 Hz, it will consist of frequency components that are integer multiples of that value (e.g. 100, 200, 300, 400, 500.... Hz). However, smaller loudspeakers may not produce low frequencies, so in our example, the 100 Hz component may be missing.

  6. Rumble (noise) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rumble_(noise)

    A rumble is a continuous deep, resonant sound, such as the sound made by heavy vehicles or thunder. [1] In the context of audio reproduction rumble refers to a low frequency sound from the bearings inside a turntable. This is most noticeable in low quality turntables with ball bearings. Higher quality turntables use slide bearings, minimizing ...

  7. Perception of infrasound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perception_of_infrasound

    Infrasound is sound at frequencies lower than the low frequency end of human hearing threshold at 20 Hz. It is known, however, that humans can perceive sounds below this frequency at very high pressure levels. [1]

  8. List of unexplained sounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unexplained_sounds

    The name was given because the sound slowly decreases in frequency over about seven minutes. It was recorded using an autonomous hydrophone array. [8] The sound has been picked up several times each year since 1997. [9] One of the hypotheses on the origin of the sound is moving ice in Antarctica. Sound spectrograms of vibrations caused by ...

  9. Room modes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Room_modes

    Most rooms have their fundamental resonances in the 20 Hz to 200 Hz region, each frequency being related to one or more of the room's dimensions or a divisor thereof. These resonances affect the low-frequency low-mid-frequency response of a sound system in the room and are one of the biggest obstacles to accurate sound reproduction.
