@@rolig9303 Well there really isnt that much to it like you might expect. The octave is present in every music culture although the tones inbetween might be distributed differently (e.g. in old indian music culture over 40 tones where cramped into an octave), just because its the most basic frequency ratio of 1:2, which is simply the most pleasant to hear. Thats why every music culture kinda anchored around it. The Fifth is the next most basic ratio of 2:3 and also used by (pretty much) any music culture (?). On a side note: Distributing the rations of our european tradition 12 semi notes along an octave is slightly imperfect ("pythagorean comma"), which is why different tunings evolved. Until baroque and Bachs famous well tempered clavier, keys further from the tonal center, like F sharp or e flat sounded wildly different from C or a and couldnt really be used without sounding like a honky tonk piano out of tune. But this subject gets crazy complex at one point.

Kevin from the channel Said Too Much Productions actually became somewhat well-known by modding a bass to go down to C#0. Since then he has built a massive djentstick-type instrument with a 5ft 212 gauge piano string, and in one of his videos he tuned it all the way down to B-2 (and yes, he also pitchshifted it 2 octaves down to B-4, literally less than 2Hz).

I see a possible use of such low frequencies: they could be used for special effects in rock or metal songs, like having one guitar giving these effects on the back while the rest are giving the actual riffs and melodies of the song. It would sound actually nice imo, I know that's what post processing is for but it would serve as an alternate way to create new sounds or atmospheres

when you get low enough the string is an LFO (low frequency oscillator), which is used in synthesizers for an audible tempo interpreted sound "wub wub wub" aside from a pitch, with of course the higher audible frequencies from timbre and distortion used to discern actual sound. I've always been fascinated at maybe creating a song where the lowest or pedal tone of a riff is a multiple of the tempo to coincide with that oscillation.

Each lower octave is half the frequency of the previous one. So your A#-2 would be 6.875Hz (A#0 = 27.50, A#-1 = 13.75) and E-3 would be 2.575Hz. Basically at the point where the noise you're hearing is purely the mechanical function of your speakers/ headphones.

It's interesting you mention bands doing this in 10 years because it's kinda already part of the experience of listening to metal. Music KZfaqr 12tone has a video called "Why does Metal have to be so Loud?", and he talks about the concept of listener collapse and other phenomena, but essentially, the lower you go, the less sound you "hear" and the more you "feel" physically, which breaks down (heh) the illusion of sound being a non-physical concept. It's one reason why metal resonates (okay i didn't mean to make that pun) with a lot of people

7:51 If bands did tune that low, might wanna crank up the gain because it does sound like Static. If the Tesla Coil was converted into a guitar it would sound like that.

@niknocturnal Look up a band from the late 90s called floor. They have their bottom string tuned so low that it sounds like a bomb look up the song iron girl. They hit the bomb string at 0:57. The remaining strings are AAEGB

What pitch shifter did use? Whenever I go below -3 semitones on the pitch shifter on my multi fx the tone gets obliverated but yours stayed pretty good sounding

he often talks about using the Digitech Whammy pedal, but I remember watching a video by Gary Hiebner where he shot out many pitchshifters against one another and determined that the Poly Capo shifter from the Line 6 Helix software was the best in most cases.

At the risk of repeating what someone else said and speaking in some generalities, you need at least a 15 inch or 18 inch speaker to get into that territory, as far as reproducing the actual note (below 60 hertz and definitely have to go bigger with the speaker to get anywhere near reproducing 20 hertz)

When I got my baritone strat built, I tuned it down to A1 because A0 is the lowest note on a full scale piano, also the perfect 5ths start to sound really dumb below A1. I know about 8 string and 9 string guitars and lower than contrabass frequencies, ok, but A1 was the perfect low note for that guitar.

If you take a note and play it an octave lower the pitch is halved. So the last E-3 was around 2.575hz i believe.

This was mad funny and entertaining. I think what metal guitarists who push the boundaries of low tunings should keep in mind, is that if a chord doesn't sound good, then you're too low. Just hitting the lowest string in a repetitive pattern, will let you get lower, yes. But there's only so much you can do with that. If the strings don't "play well" with each other, because you've tuned too low, then you're wasting the point of playing a guitar. And you should probably just mic up a railroad cable at that point.
