What is it about these sounds that causes such an intense reaction - even at relatively low volume levels? How come we can still enjoy a really loud concert at much higher SPLs without getting that same level of anxiety? Davies Roberts, founder of Flare Audio, says he can tell you EXACTLY what's causing this: resonances in the actual structure of your ear which boost certain upper mid frequencies. He and the team at Flare Audio have been working to solve this problem and several other curious conundrums in the world of acoustics and sound. What does all of this mean for our productions and mixes? Take a listen!On this episode you will learn:About speaker technologies and why they're less than idealHow the ear's organic structure creates resonant peaks in certain frequency bands and why we aren't all hearing the same thingHow the ear's organic structure is not optimized for hearing what we're looking atAbout some solutions Flare is developing to solve the issues above How this knowledge should or shouldn't affect our engineering/production decisionsA bit about hearing loss and tinnitus and the challenges of developing solutionsFlare Audiohttps://www.flareaudio.com/https://www.facebook.com/flareaudioWhere to Find the GuysFree DIY Recording eBook: www.howtorecordyourband.comVadim's Studio Site - Get your FREE test mix today! - https://calmfrogrecording.comBenjamin's Studio Site - https://dreamloudstudio.comLeave a rating.
