I think Bill Mitchell commented about a 14kHz cymbal crash or bell note and its third harmonic being at 42kHz. My ear would tend to disagree with that. When I play a cymbal, I hear a low fundamental (well below 1kHz) which to most people is drowned out by the much stronger higher harmonics. So a cymbal has a chance to give off plenty of harmonics below 22Khz. Can someone verify this. I'm also curious about your average bell note, or any similar seemingly high frequency instrument (i.e. are we really missing all that much by limiting ourselves to 22kHz). -- "blah, blah, blah, blublublah blah blah" Jeff Lewis vvvvvvvvvvvv {decvax|ucbvax|allegra|seismo|harpo|teklabs|ihnp4}!pur-ee!lewie ^^^^^^^^^^^^
