Re: New thread: Low Hz filtering

["umashankar" umashanks]

before you=A0vote for=A0or against low=A0frequency filtering, consider this=
.

in many situations, the low frequencies are not intrusive when you are ther=
e, but they become so in the recording.

this is almost always because we listen at much higher volume than=A0 real =
life levels. the ear's sensitivity to low frequencies is very low at low le=
vels. when you boost recorded levels=A0 (during the recording, during proce=
ssing, or in playback) low frequencies you could not hear earlier become au=
dible.

it is up to you to decide which is more acceptable, a theoretically flat fr=
equencies response, or a correction=A0to accommodate the elevated playback.
