Can someone recommend a decent program that tells me what Hz bass is contained in song?

Preferably freeware

I've looked at a few through google searches but they either don't tell me the Hz accurately, say the wrong Hz or dont make sense eg. Spectra Scope / oscillometerxz / Graphic Equalizer 09 / SpectraPlus

any help appreciated!!

Oh ok, cool....i have actually heard of that program before but didn't know exactly what it did.....only heard it sometimes can make a song into an instrumental

Thanks I'll try it

You can do quite of tweaking with the song as well.

Ok, I've just had a look at it....could you tell me how exactly i can tell what the lowest Hz is contained in a song

All i can find is:

1. Highlight a part of the song

2. Go to "Analyze" tab & click "Plot Spectrum" which opens up a "frequency analysis" window

3. out of those 4 drop down boxes change the one that says by default "512" to at least "2048"

so it can show frequency's down to 22hz

now i change that "512" to any other higher number and the lowest Hz it can analyze always shows the highest...so changing "512" to" 4096" it says there is 11Hz in the song at higher levels than any other Hz.....the song i am analyzing has not got any 11Hz in it for sure...

I think i might have found a way that seems more realistic but still fails to seem accurate because it doesn't show some Hz's drops in songs

use the cursor along the graph, go all the way to the left and find "Peak" reading when moving cursor is that right?

Change it to 16384(this will enable you to see down to 3 Hz.) and from linear frequency to log frequency(this will let you see your peak frequencies easier) also change it to a Barlett window.

thanks that looks better, just concentrate on the spikes aye?....lol i almost had it

pucking maaad...thanks its working perfectly.....interesting seeing what hz are in different songs......Sooooo many songs to look at now, gonna have a ball now!!

ohh and even more thanks, coz now i can work out what to tune my box to to be able to play songs that i listen to mostly

No problem lol
