Test yourselves!
Audiocheck.
Audiocheck.
Heh. I know I could hear the whine of the horizontal deflection coil electronics of traditional CRT TVs well into my 30s. Not sure these days though... (And there aren't any CRTs around anymore anyway to test myself with, so...
)
Do you mean your typical Roland synth? Old ones, I am sure they do that. I have the Roland SD-50 and it plays everything you throw at it, like your typical soundcard, but yes, it's meant to edit and play MIDI for the most part, of course.
Neat papers but a load of crap for headphones which don't suck, a few of them contradict your argument that headphones don't have a lot of response above 10k btw.
Here's what the frequency response for my headphones look like

Huh?
Frequency responses are alway in decibels which is logarithmic by definition. The x-axis has frequency listed at the bottom (also normal, since that's how human perceive audio).

Perhaps there is good reason for log on the Y axis, but why is the X axis logarithmic? It just comically compresses the upper frequencies for no good reason (and stretches out low frequencies.) And like I said, it's not graded, unless you count once every power of ten as proper grading. Like, the graph ends somewhere at some point beyond 11khz for unspecified reason. Wut?
Because that's how human hearing response is wired. In music you have 12 notes in an octave. A note, one octave up, is exactly twice the frequency.
Cheers
