flat and low frequency Explanation: I would suggest -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 mins (2011-10-03 03:54:27 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- An ideal "flat" frequency response means that the microphone is equally sensitive to all frequencies. In this case, no frequencies would be exaggerated or reduced (the chart above would show a flat line), resulting in a more accurate representation of the original sound. We therefore say that a flat frequency response produces the purest audio. In the real world a perfectly flat response is not possible and even the best "flat response" microphones have some deviation. More importantly, it should be noted that a flat frequency response is not always the most desirable option. In many cases a tailored frequency response is more useful. For example, a response pattern designed to emphasise the frequencies in a human voice would be well suited to picking up speech in an environment with lots of low-frequency background noise. The main thing is to avoid response patterns which emphasise the wrong frequencies. For example, a vocal mic is a poor choice for picking up the low frequencies of a bass drum. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 17 mins (2011-10-03 04:02:38 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- High-Pressure Low-Frequency Microphone Calibration at CSIRO, Australia B.
