Circle of Sound

[Richard Brekne]

Hi Ron, Thumpy... and others.

Didnt really get a chance to finish this as I was out the door for an 
afternoon of x-country skiing in the mountains around Bergen today.  
Wheew.... what a day.. but thats another story.

No, I didnt get offended whatsoever by your post... it was just an 
example I pulled out because it was such a good one.  We do this kind of 
thing all the time on the list and in other discussions. And it does 
have some perhaps hidden, but none the less unfortunate consequences.  
To overstate the point abit... let me illustrate thus..

A fellow asks "what the specific acoustical effects are when mass is 
applied to the underside of the bridge ?"   The answer he gets is that " 
You get a better sound".

I think its fair to say that the answer to the question here is both 
highly subjective in nature, and really doenst supply the fellow with 
any of the information he was after.

Ok... so I really over stated the example... but perhaps you get the 
point.  I see this all the time, and without taking the slightest 
offense at it (realizing I am just as likely to be guilty of such 
myself) I expressed a desire for a more disspassionate and informative 
approach.  I by no means meant to single out anyone in particular... 
thought I'd made both that clear, and the fact that I have only the 
highest regard for you.

Sorry to have ruffled the proverbial feathers... not my intention whatsover.

Cheers
RicB
