a great question.!
I have listened to my mixes in a large room and my lead guitars volume is too low.Long wave lenghts are bass<br />and short wave lengths have high wave lenghts<br />so you hear the long wave lenghts in a room but not the short ones<br /><br />Here.s the million dollar question<br />What frequency and decibel (yes, named after alexander grahm bell) See deci-Bells are your amplitude (strenght) and frequency is wave lenght...can you tell me what amplitude and or frequency I should use to fill a big room<img src="images/smilies/face-glasses.png" border="0" alt="glasses" title="glasses" /><br />
Nigel...I've learned that amplitude is the strenght of the signal AM....and FM is the frequency
so if you have a short wave...You see , the doppler effect is..A plane sounds lower as it comes closer because the wave didn't reach you from far away. So what now? By the way the speed of sound is right about 650 miles per second, electricity is 166,000 miles per second..I'm trying my best here
So if the pitch goes lower as the plane comes by..are you right? Bass wave don't go farther? r.s.v.p.
Sound travels at the speed of sound,and that has little to do with freqs.
Bass freqs do not travel faster than higher ones
However bass can be heard over longer distances more than high.
For larger halls or outdoor venues,it is the job of the soundman to balance the tonal range so that all appears equal.
This balance will be different to every venue.
Mixing a recording so that it sounds the same in any situation is almost impossible.
Again it will have to come down to the venues own amplification system and the skills of those using it.
Just my opinion.
Nigel.
