Test your hearing range! A series of pure sinewave test tones covering the audio spectrum from 20 Hz to 22 KHz, each preceded by a vocal announcement giving the frequency of the following tone. Tones created in Cool Edit Pro. PLEASE:- 1) Download the file, don't try the test using the Freesound preview. 2) You need a decent quality sound card/interface or you may well be hearing false sub-harmonics at the top end of the test.

Test is useless due to the mp3 (128kpbs) format. It cuts off frequencies 16/18khz and all others after even in the downloaded version, same goes for all the ones on youtube.

Hi there - been using this in a explanation for a radio program for a danish radio show about hearing aids. A perfect fit. Thanks!

even though it might can not be suited for a proper hearing test, it is indeed a great matter prime for sampling sub bass /in special 60 hz) and laying those down to a lot of our mixes, thanks all the way acclivity!
