Band Center Frequency (Hz)

Figure 4: Analysis bandwidths of some real-ear analyzers and critical bands for a normal ear. If the analysis bandwidth is less than a critical band, aided response curves shown to be at threshold (or UCL) will actually be well above it.

(1) and pink noise analyzed in 1/12 octave bands (2). (Dual view not available in RM500SL)
