Spectrum Analysers

[rinforzando]

Hi

I am mid way through a research project looking into Spectrum Analysers and their uses within the Music Industry. It would a great help if you could send me some info into whether you use or ever used any kind of Spectrum Analyser in your everyday business, what programs you use, what you use them for and finally what benifits are gain and how it contributes to the final product. If you hold any other info you might feel relevant please send that also.

Anything will help me out whether its big or small.

Thank you very much for your time.

Kind Regards

I don't know if this is what you had in mind,
but in Home Theatres, we like to know where the good subwoofer effects are. Here's a thread Anybody up for an AVS waterfall thread? Most of these are from 0hz to 120hz for several seconds in a movie/DVD.
"Tears of the sun, chapter 22" has lots of infrasound sound energy.

Of course most subwoofers won't go down to under 15hz.
But the Thigpen Rotary Woofer works from 1hz to 20hz with enough power to visibly move the walls. There's a test here

showing it's effects at "Master and Commander (dts5.1), with all 5 subs woofing away. Pretty cool to listen to. Nearly 110dB SPL across 1-5Hz."
"September 26, 2006" of the blog (currently page 2) has pictures of the installation of the TRW.
