Getting hold of all the Loefah releases will be pretty easy, just have to tap up a few friends. Nice one, keep them coming though.




whoa.....that looks lovely.

If you really wanna know, download this app:

My soundcard is being a bitch and won't output through it, but I got a mate to analyse some tunes.

FWIW, Caspa & The Others - Well ‘Ard drops to 38Hz. Caspa - Louder and Rusko - Betamax get to 46Hz and Geiom - Reminissin' (Duplate Version) drops to 42Hz.

are you kidding? The Future is rediculous low. 40 hz is pretty damn low to me.

i think Face Melt's in the same ballpark too. 40ish. give or take 2hz

Proper Rig!!
are those Function One bins.
what are you using for a processor?
find a song that you know inside and out and tweak that thing until they sound like right.
I used to work for a PA company, and i fired up Photeks' Terminus on a set of EAW SB850's, the breakdown that has the frequency sweep that just keeps dropping. the owner came running from the front office screaming that i was shaking his shelves.

Digital- Lower Depths
Relocate - Dot Dot Dash, oh wait, we're still waiting for that one..
Martyn - Suburbia hits some low ones..
TRG - Generations (Breakage Remix) out this week..

but regardless what you play,
make it vinyl.

nothing by me then!!! hahahaha altho i have a few tunes that go so low in places that my 6 inch monitors cant actually reproduce them. just sit there wobbling a lot looking silly. must upgrade really

Loefah - System is my go to tune for bass weight!

Check out Blackmass Plastics - Do the Mash! Shit is heavy! Anything from the EP actually, evil stuff!

Most of the stuff from Distance's album is super bass heavy too.

some Goth-Trad stuff is deep quality. Cut End/Flags also Distance remix of Far East Assasin. and turn up Peverlist - roll with the punches for low/subtle bass. Enjoy!

Sorry to bump an old thread, but look what someone's shown me:

Waterfall analysis of the drop, from 20Hz-200Hz. From an uncompressed source, so it should be true to the original recording.

Still savage though, especially when you get a nice bit of harmonic distortion.

below about 35hz is virtually inaudible. lots of producers do a 40hz cut...
What you don't hear affects what you do hear in the audible spectrum, as is the nature of waves. And since when has it been all about hearing the music?

Chestplate workout time. I don't wanna hear your bassline.

Rather than a dubstep track...try...

Acid Rain V.I.P. by Equinox (planet MU)

unfortunetly the clip on the page linked below doesn't have the big drop after the intro i was hoping, but if you can get the whole tune, it'll be a worthy contender of testing audio.

http://www.planet-mu.com/discography/ZIQ134

if you want to get really anal about set up, just buy the sound check CD from Studio Spares for £25.

Agreed. Love Martyn.
but regardless what you play,
make it vinyl.
normally I would say this is untrue, but for testing the system I was looking at, you'd want the best possible source with the widest possible spectrum. When dialing in, I would say you would wanna do it right.

I have that track somewhere already - it wasn't about getting anal though, just impressing the crowd that invariably hang about before a gig gets going!

I have to say, all the tracks I tried did the job brilliantly in that respect, especially Bombardment of Saturn by Vex'd :lol:
