Audacity Forum

A single tone made by a low male voice (expected to be easily below 100 Hz, 85 Hz probably), was shown by both of these methods to be well above 400 Hz. I think you have a very fuzzy idea of the character of the human voice. Hollywood sound people always use the 100Hz Hi Pass Filter any time we're ...

It doesn't appear to tell you what the differences are. I assume one is pin 2 hot and the other pin 3 hot. The difference between broadcast and the older PA -- public address standard.
