# i really don't think i am


edit: from re-reading your reply i think i get you. yes it's a very similar mechanism, the delay between your ears being created by distance and the speed of sound.

# It's how
I think you are:P Or he is. I studied psycho acoustics for quite quite a while.

But we'll test fuckster with what is the speed of sound?

# Depends on temperature, altitude etc...
... but isn't it about 290m/s?

# Close!
Altitude is not really that much of a factor in audio. But I was looking for the standard that is 343mps at 20c.

Classically used to set your delays.

The height of a 100Hz sinwave?:P

# altitude affects pressure affects the speed of sound in air
NEXT!

# Yes it does
But not that many gigs have been done on Everest you know.

Possibly something I saw in a magazine or when I was lecturing live sound at university:P

# Not right now,
but one day we'll all be playing gigs at flying parties, and we'll have to fiddle the delays on the video screens to match.

# Well a one hertz cycle on 343mps would be 343m high
So 100 would be 34.3 metres:P
So therefore 1kHz 3.43m
