I was thinking...which might not be such a great idea...
What if someone was to make a wav file that contained a sweep of the frequency range over say 30 seconds using a perfect tone....and they were to adjust it such that the volume level on flat monitors APPEARED to be consistant from 20hz to 20,000khz.
Could that file be used as a reference for those lacking nice studio monitors?
For instance, I'm using headphones that tend to really boost the bass range...or at least it sounds boomier than it should. If I was to take the above mentioned file, it would sound louder in the bass range than it would in the higher frequencies. Using a parametric EQ, I could flatten the sound level by cutting the bass frequencies appropriately, thereby "flattening" what's coming out of my phones.
This could be done for any speakers that those of use without monitors are using.
Would this work? It would of course require that the person creating the file used some nice flat monitors.
