Importance Of Corner Bass Traps

By Ina Hunt


Music is an integral part of daily living. It has been a part of human existence since the early days. It has provided for a source of entertainment even way back then. Ancient festivals are never complete back then without accompaniment, as it remains to be so until today.

It is also beneficial for optimum brain development. The hearing capabilities of human beings function as early as the fetal stage. It is believed that a child can hear and distinguish sounds from the environment even when still inside the safe confines of the womb of the mother. The effect of classical music to brain development makes a pregnant woman want to listen to classical pieces even at the early stages of pregnancy.

There are many parents who are gifted with musically gifted children. While some of these parents can be quite supportive of their talented offspring, there are still some who think that a musical ability is inferior to intellectual capacity. Often, they make their children give up their love for music because it eats up the time that one can spend for studying. This should not be the case. It actually helps in the improvisation of mathematical skills. The steady beat that the bass provides will stimulate the part of the brain that control problem solving skills.

Most people fail to realize the essential part that it plays in every composition. They think that it is used only in very loud sounds such as the rock and metal genre. The truth is, even the slowest songs follow that steady beat only the bass can provide.

It is essential as it plays two very important functions. This aspect of music provides the rhythmic foundation in any song or piece. The rhythmic foundation refers to that consistent pulse of the music. The bass player provides the entire group with a steady pulse that is the mark of a really good composition.

The bass also provides the harmonic foundation of every song that is ever played. Harmony is achieved when, even at a certain point where several notes are played at once, you still get to hear it as a single melody. The bass is the point of reference used by the ears so be able to distinguish sounds. How the it is used makes all the difference. You can use the same melody, but if you vary the bass, you will be able to come up with individual moods.

There exist nowadays some musical devices that have the ability to trap elements in music. With the use of these so called bass traps, the way most perceive audio frequencies takes on a whole new level. They have the capacity to reduce LF resonance which is why they are used mostly in recording studios and home entertainment systems.

Basically, there are two types that the people from the said industry use. The first type is called resonator types. They can absorb sound frequencies, only admittedly at a very low range.

It is primarily for this reason that the porous absorbers are the ones marketed to the public today. They are smaller in size and they do not need to be specifically tuned to match the job. They are also quite easy to build. In fact, more and more people make their own bass traps rather than buy them. It allows them to save more money without compromising anything.
