Unpredictableacts Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 if it is a legit event they will uualy give you one when you are micced up.....what is your ported tuned to...start there on the Burp and work your way up...avoid the sweep since it kills your battery.

TLontheDL Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 I would suggest you buy a cd instead of downloading bass songs. CDs i would suggest looking into is BASS 305 and BASS MEKANIC (i think i spelled mekanic wrong but its either that or mekanik). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Pisto Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 There are many. Just go to amazon.com and search. You can find one for probably 3-5 bucks shipped. Bass Mekanik is good, DB Jams works great as well. What you want to do is play a sine sweep and find out what frequency you peaked at. When you find out (by asking the person who is metering you), you will use that frequency. Just locate it on the track. On the DB Jams cd I have, they have actual 30 second sine waves. However, in a competition you dont want to do that, you want to just "burp". The DB Jams disc I have has both the sine waves and burps. Burps are about 3 seconds long and the reason why you want to burp is because with sine waves, voice coils on the speaker get extremely hot much quicker, the cooler your voice coils are, the louder you will be. That's why its also suggested not to bump your system the day of the even until the actual competition. I've noticed a full 1 - 1.5 dB difference because I have my own meter. If the cd you get doesnt have burps, just play the sine wave for about 3 seconds then pause the track. Since you have only 30 seconds during your run, do it about every 10 seconds.

CBRF4i Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Bass Mekanik, IBP, or DB Jams are all really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolMusic Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 i dunno about like cds that just have bass on em, like the bass test cds, but if you wanna get the party started a bit and have some KILLER bass... go and buy Pendulum - Hold Your Colour (http://www.amazon.com/Hold-Your-Colour-Pendulum/dp/B0009Y33BK/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/103-0139214-1384643?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1184757305&sr=8-1), its one of the biggest drum n bass albums from the last few years, a few of the songs on there have some proper awesome bass, and will test your system, its worth buying whatever anyways. DJ Brockie - System Check (single tune but awesome bass track to test your system, proper fat, let me know if you wanna copy), some of The Crystal Methods albums possibly? or just go and buy Drum & Bass Essentials (http://www.amazon.com/DJ-Hype-Presents-Drum-Essentials/dp/B000AD24EC/ref=sr_1_2/103-0139214-1384643?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1184757359&sr=1-2) whatever you get, get a genuine CD, not a copy as the sound quality will be no where near what the original is like, if you putting your car in a sound off, you need the quality has high has possible.
