Please Define Flare Rate Frequency

[1audiohack]

With regard to horns, what is flare rate frequency?

Examples, Steve Schell's "Big Ed" is a 15Hz flare rate, my pals Leviathan's are a 48Hz flare rate, not the LF cutoff, but flare rate in Hz.

I have scoured this and other sites, just bought the 2008 Handbook for Sound Engineers at the recomendation of a friend, and a week and $104.00 later, have not yet found it.

Its driving me crazy, the term is used like everyone learned it in grade school, I missed that somehow!

Thanks all.

Cut off frequency <> flare constant, yes.
The flare constant has the dimension of a reciprocal length.

They're just showing off. Only five guys really know what flare rate is, the rest just act like they do.

BTW - The discussion on it was in 3rd grade on a Friday afternoon close to the end of the second semester. You were probably busy pulling the redhead's ponytail sitting in front of you, shooting spit wads at your buddy across the room, gazing out the window at a spectacular spring day or simply nodding off from shear boredom. It happens...

Thank you kindly Peter. Now I need a math reference book!

OK 4313B, your known around here as a know it all but, how in the HELL do you know about the redhead?!?

As long as it was a female

There were no males with ponytails when and where I grew up, hell I was six when I saw my first black person!

Flare rate, does that have anything to do with the red-hair bell-bottom pants? 1GHz I'd say...

Alright alright already! Everyone knows what I was doing in school and it didn't stop in the third grade.

Consequently I need a little more help with this subject.

When I look at what Peter sent me I don't see the key, it looks like all variables to me.

Peter, or anyone, could you please provide an example?

Thank you from the back of the class!
