There's more to music than what you can hear. There's something to be said for the inaudible impact that an instrument has on the body. If you've ever gone to an orchestral performance in person, there is just a certain something of a physical impact that the instruments have upon the body that don't exist in replayed recordings. Even if it's the same music and the same notes and they may have the same emotional effect, but the notes just feel hollow without that physical presence. I believe that the intention behind the octobase wasn't to create a nice sound, but rather to have a resonation chamber so large that it can effectively project its presence across a large space.

You can still feel 16hz. You can feel down to 10 hz in your bones.

Sadly, he never got around to his true masterpiece, the Hexdecobasse. It stood 3 stories tall and required four to play it, two on the bow, and two working from the fret bridge, an actual bridge in front of the neck of the instrument. I hear there was even a song written to feature it called "The Coming Earthquake."

I didn't knew I needed this type of rumble in my life, but now I know I need it

Whilst human tonal perception ceases around 20Hz we can still perceive single cycles below 10Hz. (hence seeing those strings vibrating) A friend made reel tape recording of himself playing the organ in Winchester Cathedral, whilst the lowest notes were heard (and felt) in the Cathedral they were not picked up by the microphones. Those deep pedal notes definitely do contribute to the music. If I can hear our 50Hz mains hum I can tune to that as the bass note G is 49Hz. The open E string of a bass is 41Hz, we have "octave" effects that can halve that to 20Hz and that is audible. Sadly our computers (and KZread) are not really capably of reproducing these low notes.

So an interesting fact about these instruments that not many know about is that the octobass was eventually canceled by the music world because it's sound became obsolete compared to it's cousin instrument “the lawn mower”

Unfortunately we only know of seven in the world. One of which is currently in possession of the OSM (Montréal Symphony Orchestra) and is featured in some of their work. Their official KZread channel shows a little bit of its place in a symphony. (kzread.info/dash/bejne/pnatuciGkcW_hpM.html)

Rhea Morales simply search OSM Octobass and you ought to come up with the video I linked. It’s on their official KZread channel so it isn’t too difficult to track down.

It sounds like a construction site

We really need someone to write rock music with this instrument in mind.

I haven't confirmed it yet, but I heard Richard Wagner himself was one of the first composers to use this monster in his orchestra because he, indeed, wanted to create a particularly scary sound effect that he could only find in the Octobasse.

Seems practical. I wonder why they’re not more common.

I love it. I’ve played flute and piccolo for 46 years, and also oboe, alto and tenor saxophone, euphonium, sousaphone, F horn, bass drum, etc. My favorite instruments however are the contra bassoon and the bass violin. Maybe because I’ve always played high pitched instruments, who knows. But I love the low pitched sound. Hits you right in the gut. 🙂

Why didn't you choose cello or double bass or bass clarinet. I don't like the high-pitched instruments. My least favourite is piccolo. Of course, it's used for effects. Nobody can listen to it for a long time.

Super! Danke!
