I read an article on the BBC website today that talks about a good use for the hum you get on your recordings, which I found interesting (although from a sound recording perspective, I still don't like that bloody hum).
Mains hum is a frequency that audio equipment picks up for a variety of reasons. In most of the world (the blue-coloured countries on the map below), the hum is emitted at 50Hz.
However, a quote from Dr. Alan Cooper in the BBC article explains
"because the supply and demand [of electricity] is unpredictable", each
day there are different fluctuations in the amount of energy distributed
over the National Grid which cause small fluctuations in the tone of
the hum. Because there's one National Grid to supply electricity to the entire nation, the hum throughout Britain is exactly the same frequency at the same time, wherever you are.
Amazing Blog.,Thanks for sharing...
