I've even conducted an experiment in my DAW (FL Studio) using a typical straight sine wave I use for sub bass, no tricks, playing a low C2 note (30-ish hz). In my right ear, sounds exactly as always - physical presence, "pressure" on the ear (I have decent Shure headphones) like it should, but in the left ear it sounded weak and feeble, no pressure at all but the note itself was audible at least. It basically sounded like how a sub sounds when it's blown: like it's just flapping with no rumble. To accurately reproduce what I'm hearing, play a C2 note and then take the Parametric EQ2 and use the "20 + 18 khz cut" preset (or any EQ and just sharp cut) and move the low cut to exactly 50 hz to cut below 50 hz, then play the note. That's exactly how I'm hearing it in my left ear without the EQ, just regular. And what's even more interesting is when *I* turn on that same cut at 50 hz, I can't even hear the note at all in my left ear. **This is all at standard volumes and default channel settings within the DAW**
...What in the hell is going on? I've never been to a specialist for this before but you bet your ass I'm going the second I can schedule an appointment so you don't have to tell me twice, but any ideas or by any chance someone with a similar story? Might it be some sort of fluid/wax build up? (ive had my ears blocked by wax before, it's nothing quite like this plus there's no wax when doing the cursory sweep with a finger which means i doubt wax is the issue) Is it maybe carry-over from the show still and I need to wait/rest even longer??
