    For the very first time in my life, I understood what the hell log is all about; while finishing my PhD. I am so happy I learned this today.

    Explained well. I've always wondered how new graphs are plotted so smoothly and clearly. The log numbers overlay with the y-axis makes it so clear. Thanks

    www.audiolabs-erlangen.de/resources/MIR/FMP/C1/C1S3_Dynamics.html To sum it up They use something called Threshold of Hearing. at 0 decibels you have 1 threshold of hearing. at 1 decibel you have 10 thresholds (so it's x10), at 2 decibels you have 100 thresholds (so it's another x10) etc..

    Whew thank you for assuming we don’t remember what the hell a “logarithm” meant from when we never learned in in the first place as our eyes glazed over at yet another non defined weird math word (logarithm) our teacher threw out at us. This was perfect! Your graphics made it crystal clear.
