    Very interesting videos imo. Definitely changed my perspective on certain things.



    Ideal bass absorber placement.

    Duh!
    Oh, and the imperial measuring system!
    And an American football is neither a ball nor played with the feet.
    God bless (even though humans created the illusion of a God)!

    @Von_Steyr
    i found really interesting what he had to say in this vid at 2.30 in about studios & sound,what do you think ?
    for me it makes sense from an artist/composer point of view,i wonder if they ever mixed something in there... :

    And I believe that Vangelis only used the studio in Paris for an extremely short span of time, the space where the interview in the above video was documented. I think he is back in London now but we haven't spoken for a while so Van could be anywhere, maybe even back in Greece.

    i agree at the end of the vid you can see that music always unites :wink:
    Now if you could put your avatar in @superliquidsunshine 's bass cage trap and talk for a minute seriously about acoustics as the op suggested would be great :yes: :wink: :bow:

    Quite reasonable explanation. Its actually built up bass frequency caught in the equilibrium of a perfectly treated room which sounds like breaking the sound barrier, only smaller. I have golden ears. I really dont have time to explain everything.
