@@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.

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

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).

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.

6:40 The reason is that pitch shifting always distorts the sound in a weird way. Its not that obvious if the pitch is only shifted slightly, but if its several octaves, the difference is night and day. The overtones actually make out a majority of the sound. So an E-1 would sound perfectly fine if the sound quality was actually good. I recommend listening to the octobass (down to C0), the subcontrabassoon (down to A-1), 64 ft organ stop (down to C-1) and gigaracket (down to G-2). There you can clearly hear the actual frequency. Just for the gigaracket you should keep in mind that its a joke instrument and not really built to have good sound quality either. Also rackets are built in a way so that they produce a frequency one octave below what they should theoretically produce which causes certain harmonics to be heavily suppressed (so they do not sound that good).

I have an 11 string bass that is tuned to that low C# 0. It’s what I would consider semi-audible but not really something you’d use musically. It really does add some nice tone to a big chord similar to a piano. I’ve heard of/seen a 13 string bass with a low g# but that’s functionally inaudible. Just neat to see.

There is an equation to calculate the frequency for any note using A4 (440Hz) as a base. f = 2^(n/12) * 440 Where: f is the Frequency n is the number of semitones down or up from A4 Note: For the value of n if it's a higher note than A4, the value is positive; if it is a lower note than A4, the value is negative. So, for the notes out of the charts, here are the values in hertz: A#-2 = 7.28Hz G#-2 = 6.12Hz E-2 = 5.15 Hz E-3 = 2.57 Hz Another example using this equation searching for A3 frequency which is 12 semitones down from A4 f = 2^(-12/12) *400 f = 2^(-1) *400 f = 0.5 *400 f = 220Hz

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 KZbinr 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

I have a couple 10 string guitars with big boy Kalium strings and below D#0, no matter what strings you use, unless you have some crazy scale length over 30 inches every note you fret will be very muddy; due to the sheer thickness of the strings, most frets aren't going to do much to stop the string from vibrating where your fingers press down. You'd have to either refret your guitar with bigger frets, buy something with a longer scale length, or (the sensible option) just stop. Hopefully someone in this comments section finds this information interesting.

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.
