With speakers on max, this is EXACTLY what I hear, strictly at night. This gave me goosebumps. I'm glad other people hear this (not crazy) and I'm glad it can be recorded and measured (that's the first step in solving it and tinnitus and SOE are eliminated) Ontario Canada for anyone that might be charting.
I'm living in Germany and I've been hearing this sound once for about 3-4 month in the night too. First I've thought it would be a truck driver or any other car, but it hadn't stopped. I surely know that it was really annoying, so I looked outside the window, but there was nothing. It was a very hard night, because I couldn't sleep or maybe some hours... =___=
Now I'm happy that I'm not crazy, because it's the same noise in the video like I've heard in this night.^^
@NekoLuNa26 Last but not least there are more germans all over the country, who hear this noice in the night, so that they wrote some articles about it
I live in Bucharest , Romania and I've been hearing this sound for about 2 years. First I thought it's the city's background noise and later I suspected I have problems with my ears and consulted even a doctor. I am really glad to know that other people from around the world are experiencing this phenommenon. This proofs that I am not crazy, or maybe that we are all crazy! :-))
i heard this normally before slepping and it is a bit diferent from what you recorded, i visualize it in a pink shape and it is like a spatial bubble, it is more like the sound you can make with a glass and your finger, i use it for entering the hipnagogic state of awarenes, i speak on this way because i beliebe human hear it in a diferent way that machines, maybe we dont use ears for it :S
I live in GA, USA. The hum started 4 days ago. At first I thought it was the neighbors, then electrical pole, gas & water main, but after running in and out of the house, up & down my street, I couldn't find the source. My wife can't hear it, so I thought I was going crazy. Then I found this video & the hum I hear sounds exactly like this. WTF!, I can't stop it!? The hum travels through ear plugs & ear muffs. It's driving me insane. Any suggestions on how I can decrease the intensity?
Thank you for taking the time and effort to record this for us "Hum Hearers" suffering from this maddening sound. Best recording I've heard so far with the best clues to what might be source.
Wow, last month I've been able to hear something kinda similar to this. Today a friend of mine told me about all these videos pointing out this kind of sounds here in youtube. Once I got home tonight, I was able to record and upload a clip of what I hear, and I don't know if it's just me but I find it very similar to this hum, not that loud of course, since it's not edited. You can watch the video in my channel and tell me what you think if you're curious.
Hi, I watched your video. For me the sound of the first part definitely is a machine made sound. I wonder about the sound of the second part of your video. There the sound seems to be modified somehow stretched or so. It could be everything, so no chance to tell anything. :)
@dugall1 Thanks for your response. It's a relief if you tell me the first sound is machine made, although the whole recording's quality is pretty crappy since it was captured with a cellphone. The sound in the second video is just wind hitting the mic.

I dont' like this type of prophecies. The forecast of the earth's devastation or destruction, especially if an exact date is given, too. In 99.9999% of time this is going to fail. The other 0.0001% are just pure luck, or statistically probable to hit, like lottery.
Human beings tend to desire the earth's destruction and the destruction of the human being. It is the same mechanism as with the biblical sin and the wish to suffer and so die to be with god. Ridiculous. Stupid.
I've been hearing this voice occasionally for 3-4 years now, at night times. Here in the Helsinki city area, where I live, I thought it'd be some environmental noice. But then I heard it also on the countryside cottage which is apprx 8 km from a bigger country road and about 35 kilometres from a motor road and nearest (small) city - every night for two weeks. So then I assumed it must be tinnitus in my ear. But now... I don't know.
Hi, thank you for this information. I find it very interesting, that people also at the countryside(s) around the world can hear it . It means, that this is a phenomenon on a large scale.And no, it definitely is no Tinnitus. Human beings have Tinnitus, but electronic devices cannot have Tinnitus. And this sound is a real recorded one.
@mike1950gm Noticed hum here after moving to high mountainous rural area 20 miles east of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in 1999. Great recording-hard to get (I've tried). Varies in pitch and speed of undulations and like you said, is absent for weeks at a time usually in summer months I've noticed, with patches other times
~I'm hearing it RIGHT NOW, even with TV on, but is much lower than this recording. Uranium/radium deposits underground, natural gas/coal here. Compare to hum spots.
Sorry for interviewing you so much but I've got couple of more questions: 1) do you or your relatives hear it also outside the house? 2) Is it heard by other people from other parts of town?
No, only me and my gf heard it. At least there's no one else I know that could have heard it. I heard it also outside the house once. My gf only inside.
Is it possible to pinpoint the source of the sound? Maybe some kind of trilateration method where you could go outside the city and check in which direction the sound intensity is increasing as you move towards it.
100 Hz would indicate a machine that revolves at 6000 rpm.
I thought about that. You don't need necessarily triangulation of this size. You also could do it by phase shift recognition. But this will probably not work in a closed room, where the sound can be reflected from the walls or come from every wall, floor, top that vibrates with that sound, too.
How many planes are in the air at any given time, could it be thousands?.. and all other traffic as cars, trucks and trains .. This would or could create a good cumulative hum right? Anyways I can hear this sound where I live as well. especially in the mornings when traffic starts to increase. I even feel the vibrations, and I hate it ..
What i don't understand is that I thought this sound could not be detected or recorded by instruments. Have you just created this sound as an approximation to the actual sound? By the way I have heard The Hum in several places in England.
Please read the info about this video and the hum recording under "Show more" tab under the video.
See also my second video with the non altered recording.
Sometimes in the same report people tell that it can be recorded, later on tell it wouldn't exist as a single phenomena - just individual - hence indirectly claim that it was not recordable. (See //skeptoid.com/episodes/4090, podcast transcirpt, Brian Dunning.).
Yes, this phenomena can be perceived all around the western world. For me this concludes, that highly populated and technological equipped societies produce that sound. If people in the other parts of the world hear it, I don't know.
Excellent recording of the sound! I've been trying to record it for about 6 months but to no avail. I've heard it for about the last year and a half. Always at night. It drives me crazy! Can't sleep, can't cover my ears to avoid it, even earplugs do not work. I'm out in the country in Missouri. I've heard the hum with multiple witnesses.It vibrates my walls and my eardrums.
I used a simple electret condenser microphone for PCs you can by for $ 9.90. Condenser mics are more or less omnidirectional. Don't use dynamic microphones (coil moving over magnet), they usually are directional and may cancel sounds. You also need an amplificator with higher signal to noise rate. Built-in soundcards of PCs/notebooks sometimes have 30dB only. That's not enough. After recording. You need to filter the sound distinctly.
Because the amplitude of the hum is so low it goes down between other recorded sounds. I first filtered everything over somewhat 200Hz and then amplified everything again. Still, localizing the low frequent sound was difficult. So I pitch shifted everything 10x higher. Then I clearly heard the hum and found the frequency range. Then I could filter around this frequency range strongly with a bandpass and got the hum. Are you sure you haven't recorded any hum sound. Try my procedure.
I only have a simple olympus voice recorder and a Sony Handycam with nightshot and a telescoping microphone. They are great for a lot of paranormal investigations, but don't pick up much in the low hertz zone. Been looking for a recorder that picks up ultrasound.
@dugall1 what you're doing is heavily distort the original recording to the point that you can fabricate the sound that you wanted to hear. with the procedure you apply, there is no such thing as filtering out specific noises. you're just amplifying frequencies and cutting out others, which is a destructive process and does not enhance the footage at all. I tested it and was able to reproduce the results in a matter of minutes, I'm not kidding.
Of course you can extract sounds the way I did. It does NOT distort the wanted signal.
Define exactly what you understand with "distortion".
With Cross-Correlation, for example, one is able to extract signals out of almost pure noise, as space scientists do to find planets in other solar systems out of the noise (signals look like pure noise).
First read about signal processing before saying something like "there is no such thing like as filtering out specific noises".
@dugall1 The thing is, I'm not just blabbing! Also, YOU're not that scientist you talk about! The method is completely different from EQing a random audio recording, which is what you did, and I'm not even going to go into detail what happens to a signal, that is originally so low and then - as you say - pitch shifted 10x higher. You're microphone doesn't even go that far down (0,2Hz)! It's ridiculous to assume you're producing valuable proof.
A) You compare apples to oranges. The hum sound is very narrow banded 100Hz +/- 3Hz, a human voice contains many harmonics between 80Hz-12kHz
B) The narrower the band of the signal is, the better the signal can be extracted. A mono frequent tone can be extracted to almost 100% if no other signals in the same range appear
C) A voice can be extracted from a pop song, depending on results you desire and algorithms you use (the better the algorithm, the more expensive the tool)
@dugall1 A) Wind also has frequencies around 100Hz. You can't take them out. That's most likely what you recorded anyways. B) yes! that's what you did! you filtered out a narrow frequency band! that's IT! no specific hum, noise, or whatever, but a frenquency band! like using a prism. C) You'd have to show me the source for that. Of course, anything CAN be done. But again, you're results are totally expected and aren't proof of anything, b/c they can be recreated with any atmo recording there is.
Yes, I agree. Wind may cause audible and non-audible frequencies. And?
And by the way, kymatology, wave propagation, vibrations, acoustics etc. is a part of the study in mechanics.
I play music since age of 9, am interested in Audology, Audio & Studio technology, did Recording, live and studio, elec-music, etc.
One of my study works was about Reverberation (Acoustics) and Measurement of Microphone Properties for use in reverberation measurements. Tool was coded by myself. etc.
@dugall1 "Wind may cause audible and non-audible frequencies. And?" How ignorant can a person become, who wants to see only what he wants to see... If wind carries those frequencies. How can you say, it's not the wind (doesn't have to be all stormy and stuff at all), but something else? How can you sit there, turn a few knobs and go Taos Hum. You talking about what a great student you are and at the same time making those far-fetched assumptions are the very reason I find this so unconvincing.
Yes, wind may cause these sounds, I agree.... And?
I never said that it wasn't possible. But the probabilitiy that it wasn't wind is much higher.
And NOTE: I don't say the probability that it is wind is zero.
At that day it was a very calm wind still day, the record was done inside the house, in a closed room, without any people nor machines inside that room.
And yes, it may be sound of machines from somewhere, that probability is much higher.
@dugall1 That's so great! You studied electronics! But from what you are saying here, it's totally obvious that you have no clue about acoustics! If you used a pitch shifter to transpose everything 10 times higher, and the signal is now 100Hz, the original would have to have been around 0.2Hz. That's 10 octaves. If you sped the original up, fine. If you used a pitch shifter (which includes time stretching) the signal is changed. Fact. I'm not saying you did this to fake, but it's misleading.
@dugall1 I JUST told you where I got it!!!! From YOUR statement that you pitch shifted everything by 10 times! It's not that hard, is it! You didn't say you used that "technique" to find the hum and then went back to the original recording! Someone in here's not keeping track of their own statements...
Your comparison of apples with oranges combined with statements out of the blue ( 0.2 Hz ) is misleading.
Where the hell have you got these 0.2Hz??? I'm still weirded out.
I pitch shifted the signal 10x higher to find the hum. At about 1kHz it's CLEARLY AUDIBLE. After that I knew where the original sound was => at 100Hz <= so I could filter the ORIGINAL NON PITCH SHIFTED sound with a bandpass around 100Hz.
Do you understand my procedure, now ??? (where are the 0.2Hz now ??)
@dugall1 No it's not misleading, it was just an example to show you that you can't take something out of an audio signal just because you think it's distinguishable from the rest. I didn't say it's the exact same thing. What I do however say, is that there is NOTHING SPECIAL about having these frequencies occur in a recording from your flat in a city environment AT ALL! You applying the shelving eq is what makes it sound eerie.
I tell you what YOU want to tell me and the world:
You want: That this Taos Hum thing wouldn't exist and that people that are concerned with this topic were insane freaks that need a stay in the psychiatric ward.
Anyway. The sound I recorded at that day was clearly audible, even by me,I almost never hear it. But there are people who can't sleep of it. Do you think they do it for fun?
YOU are the IGNORANT, stating hard and stiff, that it was just wind without knowing more...
@dugall1 I didn't say that at all. I was referring only to the evidence you're presenting here, nothing more. I never said a word about the actual phenomenon. Also no word about insane freaks. Don't try to put words in my mouth I've never said, pal! But if the sound was "CLEARLY AUDIBLE", then why not show the original as well? Why the need to only present the heavily manipulated recording? I'm ignorant for searching real evidence that could prove sth without doubt? You're hilarious.
@dugall1 you can't filter a noise out of a recording, just because your ears (i.e. brain) can! your microphone's (sony electret) spec's: Frequency Response : 50 - 12,000 Hz. I need not go on, you have successfully shown that you have no clue. and are ignorant.
@dugall1 I know that because they are the official specs of your mic. If you want to make ACCURATE recordings of very low frequencies, you need a ribbon mic. Nothing else. Also, the kind of thing you do with your door are not at all suitable for testing how low a microphone can record. Because you're not using sound, you're just moving air around. The membrane of your mic gets pulled towards one direction violently, thus can't produce usable results. I thought you knew that.
@dugall1 No my friend, it's your turn. Why can't you put up the original for comparison and independent analysis? Told you before, the phenomenon interests me, but your evidence isn't worth anything.
@dugall1 are you serious? 1+2) can't be done. it's called interference. now don't come back telling me, you can unmix sinus tones. are we talking sinus? no.
3) your mic has that as is stated by sony. you said in an earlier comment that you used that mic. what's wrong with you?
4) i explained it. read text with eyes. make sure brain is there, too.
You don't understand my question because you don't know what it means.
Question 2:
How steep is the slope of the mic-response in the frequency spectrum under or over the mentioned frequencies of 50/12000Hz for real existing microphones?
How much is the reduction of xxx at that frequencies in dB (xxx -> you should know what I mean)
@dugall1 Here's how I know about your mic: "I used a simple electret condenser microphone for PCs you can by for $ 9.90." You said that. Alleging? "You want: That this Taos Hum thing wouldn't exist and that people that are concerned with this topic were insane freaks that need a stay in the psychiatric ward." You said that. And now you're insulting again, questioning my educational background? Is that what you're residing to now? Talking down on me? How is that supposed to help your case?
feb 2010 Karl Sims, Patti Maes and MIT nedia group hired Alyssa Wright to broadcast this hum over Taos. I have it on recording. After this hum is played mysterious suicides occur.
Thanks for the video! Good re-creation. now mix that with the sound of tennis shoes tumbling around in a dryer and an idling engine and you nailed it. :) For those that do hear there s hope: one night in 1994 I went to bed and it was silent and I haven't heard it since.
irgendwie mystisch, das hört sich nach einem emotionalen gleichklang für mich an, könnte ein teil des stadtrauschens bzw. das psychische rauschen der menschen sein.
I heard something like this one night last summer, but it was more high-pitched. I have no idea what it was. I was the only one awake, so I couldn't ask anyone else if they heard it at the time. I asked my mom if she heard it, but she said she didn't. And I know it wasn't tinnitus or something like that, because when I put in ear plugs, I couldn't hear it that much anymore. I read somewhere that if you put headphones or ear plugs in, then this noise gets louder, though. >.> So, I'm confused.
krass, meine Boxen vibrieren richtig, ich spüre sogar einen leichten Luftzug. Ich habe mir ein anderes Video mit dem Geräusch aus Taos angehört, wo man mit schlechten Boxen nur ein hochfrequentes Fiepen hört, mit guten Boxen allerdings das Fiepen von einem Brummton fast komplett überlagert wird. Wäre mal interessant beide Frequenzwellen zu vergleichen.
@expertizzlist Drinnen, bei geschlossenem Fenster. Der starke Filter und eine Normalisierung wurde angewendet um das Geräusch von den übrigen Umgebungsgeräuschen zu trennen. Sonst wäre es in dieser Aufnahme nicht hörbar.
Bei diesem Signal vermute ich, dass etwas maschinelles dahinter steckt, also nichts natürliches, da der Peak ziemlich genau bei 100Hz liegt.
@dugall1 Wenn man so ein schmales Frequenzband herausfiltert und verstärkt, ist es klar, dass dabei dieser Effekt entsteht, denn diese Frequenzen sind normaler Bestandteil von z.B. Windrauschen oder Straßenverkehr. Ganz einfaches Experiment :)
@expertizzlist Stimmt. Dieses Geräusch könnte durch Resonanz der Umgebung im Gesamten entstehen. Habe ich auch nie verneint. Einfaches Experiment? OK. Wenn du meinst.
@dugall1 Ja genau... diese ganzen Faktoren spielen ja zusammen und erzeugen unser "Grundrauschen"... der tieffrequente Anteil wird dabei wohl oft "überhört", "übertönt" oder ist einfach nicht das ausschlaggebende Charakterikum eines Geräuschs...
@expertizzlist Stimmt. Ich werde hier später mal das Frequenzspektrum hineinstellen. Der Peak um 100Hz herum ist auffällig sichtbar und zyklischer Art. Es gibt weitere sichtbare Peaks um 50Hz herum und zwischen 4 bis 20Hz. Die allesamt das Grundgeräusch überragen, was aber nicht heisst, dass sie deswegen besser hörbar sind, da die Summe das Hauptgeräusch ausmacht.
Your sound, I don't know what it is, but don't jump to conclusions, and don't rule things out until you have some empirical evidence. It sounds very similar to mine, I couldn't tell the direction outside until after 6 months of hearing it! It is always louder inside the house, near daybreak I have found it!
It has caused me a lot of grief too, and the vibrations started waking me up over and over before I actually heard anything! (A good 5 months before I heard it, I felt it!)
I feel the vibration in Hillsborough county near Tampa, I have found cell towers generating a resonance too. At home I can tell the direction of the source.
Electric feeling, vibration and hum/resonance, I am convinced it is coming from local cell towers, it keeps jumping to different towers here (compass heading changes).
Don't know WHY cell towers here started this late July 2008, how can they not know a low freq sound is being emitted for miles??
Well, I found a sound here in Florida, one three separate days i tracked the sound to cell towers, no corroboration yet though.
I used a map of the local towers (antennasearch web site) and a compass, at home I marked the general direction that the sound originated from, I passed by quiet towers too, the sound was coming from the top of some towers, I believe it is called resonance.
Also, ich habe einen sehr guten Kopfhörer, habe das nocheinmal angehört mit vollem Bass, was ich eh ständig höre, aber nicht gehört habe die letzen 60 Minuten, da war es ruhig u nun dröhnt es dermaßen gleichartig weiter, unvorstellbar, schauderhaft ist das!
Also man kann den Ton anstossen, das sollten möglichst wohl nicht alle neugierigen Leute so wie ich das nun tat mit dem Kopfhörer anhören, danach können sie vermutlich den durch HAARP induzierten Ton dauerhaft ebenfalls wahrnehmen!
I hear it here in Northern Canada. There are now power lines, no cell towers, no military bases, no cities within a 70 km radius. This is simply the sound of the Earth. Our Sun also makes a sound, recorded by astronomers. It seems perfectly natural that our planet, a living breathing organism would make a sound. I think it is trying to tell us to take care of it.
Are you SURE there are no cell towers, they can disguise them as big trees, church steeples, windmills, probably floodlights too. It is in the realm of possibility that someone might be sending data wirelessly over long distances.
Does it wake you up at night, here it can be so loud it hurts my ears for hours.
I have lived here in Florida a long time, and have found cell towers that are resonating I can here/feel it over two miles away, cannot block sound at night.
@rubirioja I fully agree, it must be our planet's breath or pulse, I heard it once but is the thin ear-piercing silent noise a less audible version of this hum?
nonetheless, this louder hum seem to relax me and makes we want to go to sleep...
Can hear the noises here on the east Coast of the U.S.
Bottom line is, it is all over the earth. People from every direction are hearing it. That should eliminate the possibility this is some sort of military thing. With people from all walks of life hearing it, it leads me to think it indeed is some natural occuring thing from the earth that only some can hear.
Of course I have no idea though. I wish I did because I have heard it since about the age of 5 or 6.
By the way, I tried to contact some organizations that are concerned with the Hum phenomena, at least they claim to be, but I NEVER received any answers from them. Isn't that strange?
ich höre diesen ton auch seit jahren. es hat plötzlich angefangen und zuerst dachte ich hätte was mit meinem gehirn, da es sich so im kopf befindet. der ton schaltet sich manchmal einfach ab und an - unregelmässig. gester hatte ich wieder einen kennen gelernt, der den ton seit ein paar wochen vernimmt. ich denke das könnte auch eine kosmische ursache haben aber HAARP ist auch gut möglich da es ja weltweit vernommen wird.
Vernehme ich seit dem 23.9.2002 fast unentwegt. Merkwürdig, bevor ich das nun anhörte, hat es hier nicht sonderlich laut gebrummt, danach richtig dröhnend. Das grollende Brummen wird verursacht durch das amerikan. H.A.A.R.P mind-control-Skalarwaffenprogramm = NWO bedingt, welches über Mikrowellenfrequenzen herabgepulst auf elektromagnetische ELF-Wellen m Oberwelle 90-110 hz u nur neurophonal wahrgenommen wird. Bin frühpensioniert worden m 35 J wegen diesen Einflüssen, leide s darunter!
Gut möglich. Habe mich ebenfalls mit dem H.A.A.R.P. Programm auseinandergesetzt. Nach all dem was "Corporate U.S." in den letzten 100 Jahren so angestellt hat würde mich das gar nicht mehr überraschen.
Interessanterweise gibt es dieses Wort sonst nirgendswo mehr zu finden... Erstaunlich, hätte gedacht, dass es wenigstens in wiki zu finden sein sollte.
@dugall1 Es ist auch einfach nur ein erfundenes Wort um der obigen Theorie einen unglaublich wissenschaftlichen Anstrich zu geben. Übrigens, ELF von 90-110Hz? 90 Hz sind problemlos hörbar und damit normaler Schall. Super Geheimwaffe btw.
@expertizzlist Habe ich irgendwo irgend etwas von ELF geschrieben? Nein! Habe ich gesagt das 90Hz ELF sind? Nein! Habe ich nicht! Du projizierst etwas in eine meiner Antworten hinein, das ich nicht geschrieben habe.
@dugall1 hey hey sachte, meine "Projektion" bezog sich auf die Aussage von poketofagenius und deine Verwunderung über ein Wort, dessen Nicht-Existenz einen guten Grund hat... kein Grund zur Aufregung
@expertizzlist OK. Alles klar. Es gibt Leute die die sind von einer Sache fest überzeugt und die regen sich dann fürchterlich auf wenn jemand mit einer anderen Theorie kommt als der ihren. Ich versuche objektiv zu bleiben. Ich habe auch keine konkrete Antwort auf dieses Geräusch. Was ich mit bestimmtheit weiss, ist, dass ich es selber schon mal gehört habe und es real ist und dies die Aufzeichnung davon. Jetzt hör ich es nicht mehr. Meine Freundin hingegen hört es praktisch jede Nacht.
@expertizzlist Eine Zwischenfrequenz kann sich durch Schwebung ergeben. Weisst du was Schwebung ist ? (ohne gleich in Wiki zu schauen). Es kann sich aber auch durch Überlagerung bzw. Löschung von vielen verschiedenen Frequenzen eine neune hörbare ergeben. 90 Hz sind problemlos hörbar als einzelne Sinusschwingung von genügend hoher Amplitude. Ja. Aber nicht ohne weiteres wenn die Amplitude mehrer Potenzen unter dem des Umgebungsgeräusches liegt.
@dugall1 Jawohl, ich bin mir über eine Schwebung im Klaren. Aber es ist ja nun einmal so, dass elektromagnetische Strahlung nicht dasselbe ist wie Schall. Es macht keinen Sinn, sich dahingehend den Kopf über ganzzahlige Schwingungsverhältnisse zu zerbrechen...
@expertizzlist Von ganzzahligen Schwingungsverhältnissen war gar nie die Rede. Du scheinst da was durcheinander zu bringen. Elektromagnetische Strahlung ist nicht dasselbe wie Schall, stimmt! Habe ich auch nie gesagt oder geschrieben. Aber magnetische bzw. elektrische Felder können Materie zu mechanischer Schwingung anregen und somit Schall produzieren.
@dugall1 Nun, ich habe die Schwingungsverhältnisse ins Feld geführt, da sie nun einmal der Grund sind, warum ein 45Hz-Ton einen 90Hz-Oberton hat, und sich hier jemand über den Zusammenhang nicht hörbarer und hörbarer Frequenzen Gedanken machte. Eine Schwebung hat damit nichts zu tun und kann auch nicht zwischen zwei Masten entstehen ...
Im from Taos and lived here all my life, Ive heard of the phenomenon but never heard the sound. Im not saying its not real but maybe us Taosenos are immune ??? lol
Definitely Real. My wife and I have been hearing this sounds since about 2000. It is very loud here in Kauai because of the night's cool dense air and the tall mountains by the sea.
Even when the power grid is down. Must be a world wide phenom. Probably caused by us 6.5 billion users. ( Reverb)
You need a subwoofer, or very good full-range loudspeakers. Usually people don't have this kind of "good" loudspeakers. So you need at least a cheap subwoofer.
This sound is, of course, recorded and then digitally processed. So it may have some change in quality, and doesn't sound quite the same as people hear it. I for my self can say, the hum sounded/felt more like a pressure rather than an audible sound.
The sound is electomagnatism. I hear the exact same sound from every tube television that is left on, even if it's on mute or not showing anything, I hear it so long as it's on. It's a very distinct hum that all these electrical devises make, and the hum in your video matches it exactly.
Usually the hum sounds from electric lines are more or less humming in a constant way.
The "Taos Hum" has a variation in amplitude although appearing to be a periodic variation.
But of course, it could have to do something with the electromagnetism from power lines that is induced to any receptive medium/matter, and that lets vibrate it in the same frequency (or harmonics) of it.
It even could let vibrate matter inside our ears, then we think it to be acoustic sounds; instead its el-magnetic.
[ non l'ho mai sentito dal vivo, eppure mi è familiare, come facesse parte della nostra vita naturalmente. sono le frequenze dei campi magnetici forse. l'onda quantica che si sta avvicinando. ]
By the way, the magnetic field of the earth is made up from many harmonics that change with time, it's not just a dipol field (north/south). Anyway the main earth field decreases in a relatively fast way - spoken in geological time - that's measurable. And probably will flip in some hundreds or thousands of years. We are in the midst of this process.
It could also be that the influences from space, especially the solar winds, have a different effect with the decrease of the field strength.
How does the environment look like on your hikes. Is it completely outside the nature with no man made technology, or were there some high-voltage lines or perhaps radio stations (military)? What about reception of your mobile phone? How was the signal strength?
I think, everything that produces in any way electromagnetic waves could be the cause or one of the causes of the Taos Hum. I mean, our world is full of many kinds of electromagnetic waves, especially the manmade ones pollute the natural environment completely. The sum of all radiowaves, e.g. long waves, short waves, ultra short waves, micro waves and also the natural waves, especially the Schumann "waves", additions, cancellations, reflections, etc. could be the cause of it.
resonance from all the human activity on the surface that cascades and sometimes is exaggerated by wave interference and interaction, maybe the multitude of waves created by surface actions sometimes slip into phase and their amplitude increases to the point of audible hum. So under my theory the hum comes from in phase waves created by something on the other side of the earth. I dont know its just a crazy theory
For me it doesn't sound crazy at all! To understand the Taos Hum we should consider every possible cause of it.
And that consists natural phenomena like tectonic movements, earthquakes, ocean streams/waves, electric and magnetic waves inside the earth/earth crust, inside the atmosphere and from sun and outside space.
And of course manmade effects, e.g. electromegnetic pollution of our environment, global warming, meltdown of arctic ice caps (could also be natural), atomic tests etc. etc. etc.
In Europe the power lines have 50Hz. The main frequency of the signal I recorded is around 100Hz. So, if the hum in or around USA has main frequencies of 60Hz or 120Hz and in Europe 50Hz or 100Hz it must have to do something with the power lines - if.
But, for sure, it has nothing to do with an ear desease because this signal, you can hear in my video, is a real recorded one, not synthesized.

I'm living in Germany and I've been hearing this sound once for about 3-4 month in the night too. First I've thought it would be a truck driver or any other car, but it hadn't stopped. I surely know that it was really annoying, so I looked outside the window, but there was nothing. It was a very hard night, because I couldn't sleep or maybe some hours... =___=
Now I'm happy that I'm not crazy, because it's the same noise in the video like I've heard in this night.^^

I live in GA, USA. The hum started 4 days ago. At first I thought it was the neighbors, then electrical pole, gas & water main, but after running in and out of the house, up & down my street, I couldn't find the source. My wife can't hear it, so I thought I was going crazy. Then I found this video & the hum I hear sounds exactly like this. WTF!, I can't stop it!? The hum travels through ear plugs & ear muffs. It's driving me insane. Any suggestions on how I can decrease the intensity?

Wow, last month I've been able to hear something kinda similar to this. Today a friend of mine told me about all these videos pointing out this kind of sounds here in youtube. Once I got home tonight, I was able to record and upload a clip of what I hear, and I don't know if it's just me but I find it very similar to this hum, not that loud of course, since it's not edited. You can watch the video in my channel and tell me what you think if you're curious.

Human beings tend to desire the earth's destruction and the destruction of the human being. It is the same mechanism as with the biblical sin and the wish to suffer and so die to be with god. Ridiculous. Stupid.

I've been hearing this voice occasionally for 3-4 years now, at night times. Here in the Helsinki city area, where I live, I thought it'd be some environmental noice. But then I heard it also on the countryside cottage which is apprx 8 km from a bigger country road and about 35 kilometres from a motor road and nearest (small) city - every night for two weeks. So then I assumed it must be tinnitus in my ear. But now... I don't know.

Is it possible to pinpoint the source of the sound? Maybe some kind of trilateration method where you could go outside the city and check in which direction the sound intensity is increasing as you move towards it.
100 Hz would indicate a machine that revolves at 6000 rpm.

I thought about that. You don't need necessarily triangulation of this size. You also could do it by phase shift recognition. But this will probably not work in a closed room, where the sound can be reflected from the walls or come from every wall, floor, top that vibrates with that sound, too.

MrUNSEEN40 11 months ago
@MrUNSEEN40
What kind of gear did you use?
I used a simple electret condenser microphone for PCs you can by for $ 9.90. Condenser mics are more or less omnidirectional. Don't use dynamic microphones (coil moving over magnet), they usually are directional and may cancel sounds. You also need an amplificator with higher signal to noise rate. Built-in soundcards of PCs/notebooks sometimes have 30dB only. That's not enough. After recording. You need to filter the sound distinctly.
dugall1 10 months ago
@MrUNSEEN40
Because the amplitude of the hum is so low it goes down between other recorded sounds. I first filtered everything over somewhat 200Hz and then amplified everything again. Still, localizing the low frequent sound was difficult. So I pitch shifted everything 10x higher. Then I clearly heard the hum and found the frequency range. Then I could filter around this frequency range strongly with a bandpass and got the hum. Are you sure you haven't recorded any hum sound. Try my procedure.
dugall1 10 months ago
@dugall1
I only have a simple olympus voice recorder and a Sony Handycam with nightshot and a telescoping microphone. They are great for a lot of paranormal investigations, but don't pick up much in the low hertz zone. Been looking for a recorder that picks up ultrasound.
MrUNSEEN40 10 months ago
@dugall1 what you're doing is heavily distort the original recording to the point that you can fabricate the sound that you wanted to hear. with the procedure you apply, there is no such thing as filtering out specific noises. you're just amplifying frequencies and cutting out others, which is a destructive process and does not enhance the footage at all. I tested it and was able to reproduce the results in a matter of minutes, I'm not kidding.
expertizzlist 9 months ago
@expertizzlist
Of course you can extract sounds the way I did. It does NOT distort the wanted signal.
Define exactly what you understand with "distortion".
With Cross-Correlation, for example, one is able to extract signals out of almost pure noise, as space scientists do to find planets in other solar systems out of the noise (signals look like pure noise).
First read about signal processing before saying something like "there is no such thing like as filtering out specific noises".
dugall1 9 months ago
@dugall1 The thing is, I'm not just blabbing! Also, YOU're not that scientist you talk about! The method is completely different from EQing a random audio recording, which is what you did, and I'm not even going to go into detail what happens to a signal, that is originally so low and then - as you say - pitch shifted 10x higher. You're microphone doesn't even go that far down (0,2Hz)! It's ridiculous to assume you're producing valuable proof.
expertizzlist 9 months ago
@expertizzlist To be more clear. You say "Of course you can extract sounds the way I did". Fine. Go ahead, extract the voice from a pop song.
expertizzlist 9 months ago
@expertizzlist
It IS possible to extract the significant information of a voice out of a pop song. How well that works is depending on the algorithms used.
The same is valid for what I did with the hum sound.
Especially the hum sound I found, that is very narrow in spectral distribution, can be extracted very well.
dugall1 9 months ago
@expertizzlist
A) You compare apples to oranges. The hum sound is very narrow banded 100Hz +/- 3Hz, a human voice contains many harmonics between 80Hz-12kHz
B) The narrower the band of the signal is, the better the signal can be extracted. A mono frequent tone can be extracted to almost 100% if no other signals in the same range appear
C) A voice can be extracted from a pop song, depending on results you desire and algorithms you use (the better the algorithm, the more expensive the tool)
dugall1 9 months ago
@dugall1 A) Wind also has frequencies around 100Hz. You can't take them out. That's most likely what you recorded anyways. B) yes! that's what you did! you filtered out a narrow frequency band! that's IT! no specific hum, noise, or whatever, but a frenquency band! like using a prism. C) You'd have to show me the source for that. Of course, anything CAN be done. But again, you're results are totally expected and aren't proof of anything, b/c they can be recreated with any atmo recording there is.

Yes, I agree. Wind may cause audible and non-audible frequencies. And?

@dugall1 "Wind may cause audible and non-audible frequencies. And?" How ignorant can a person become, who wants to see only what he wants to see... If wind carries those frequencies. How can you say, it's not the wind (doesn't have to be all stormy and stuff at all), but something else? How can you sit there, turn a few knobs and go Taos Hum.

Yes, wind may cause these sounds, I agree.... And?
I never said that it wasn't possible. But the probabilitiy that it wasn't wind is much higher.
And NOTE: I don't say the probability that it is wind is zero.
At that day it was a very calm wind still day, the record was done inside the house, in a closed room, without any people nor machines inside that room.
And yes, it may be sound of machines from somewhere, that probability is much higher.

@expertizzlist
You are babbling. With your statements you show that you have no clue about what you're talking of.
How low? Who wrote anything about 0.2Hz? I didn't...
The signal is around 100Hz.
If you transpose everything 10x higher (pitch shift) nothing gets distorted.
I studied electronics, mechanics and informatics. I know about signal processing.
My recommendation:
First learn about signal processing, then write about it. If you have no clue, leave it.
dugall1 9 months ago
@dugall1 That's so great! You studied electronics! But from what you are saying here, it's totally obvious that you have no clue about acoustics! If you used a pitch shifter to transpose everything 10 times higher, and the signal is now 100Hz, the original would have to have been around 0.2Hz. That's 10 octaves. If you sped the original up, fine. If you used a pitch shifter (which includes time stretching) the signal is changed. Fact. I'm not saying you did this to fake, but it's misleading.

Where the hell have you got these 0.2Hz??? I'm still weirded out.
I pitch shifted the signal 10x higher to find the hum. At about 1kHz it's CLEARLY AUDIBLE. After that I knew where the original sound was => at 100Hz <= so I could filter the ORIGINAL NON PITCH SHIFTED sound with a bandpass around 100Hz.
Do you understand my procedure, now ??? (where are the 0.2Hz now ??)
dugall1 9 months ago
@dugall1 No it's not misleading, it was just an example to show you that you can't take something out of an audio signal just because you think it's distinguishable from the rest. I didn't say it's the exact same thing. What I do however say, is that there is NOTHING SPECIAL about having these frequencies occur in a recording from your flat in a city environment AT ALL!

Also, the kind of thing you do with your door are not at all suitable for testing how low a microphone can record. Because you're not using sound, you're just moving air around. The membrane of your mic gets pulled towards one direction violently, thus can't produce usable results. I thought you knew that.

Yes it is a simple electret mic. But it is not a Sony mic.
I measured the properties of this mic and it is not comparable with expensive measurement mics, that's true.
Nevertheless even this mic is capable of responding to low frequent pressure changes of the air.
As I said, I was able to register pressure changes inside a room caused by closing/opening doors in the range of some seconds, with that simple mic.

I asked my mom if she heard it, but she said she didn't. And I know it wasn't tinnitus or something like that, because when I put in ear plugs, I couldn't hear it that much anymore. I read somewhere that if you put headphones or ear plugs in, then this noise gets louder, though. >.> So, I'm confused.

krass, meine Boxen vibrieren richtig, ich spüre sogar einen leichten Luftzug. Ich habe mir ein anderes Video mit dem Geräusch aus Taos angehört, wo man mit schlechten Boxen nur ein hochfrequentes Fiepen hört, mit guten Boxen allerdings das Fiepen von einem Brummton fast komplett überlagert wird. Wäre mal interessant beide Frequenzwellen zu vergleichen.

Warum der starke Filter und wo ist die Aufnahme gemacht worden (Drinnen/Draußen/Offenes Fenster)?
expertizzlist 1 year ago
@expertizzlist Drinnen, bei geschlossenem Fenster. Der starke Filter und eine Normalisierung wurde angewendet um das Geräusch von den übrigen Umgebungsgeräuschen zu trennen. Sonst wäre es in dieser Aufnahme nicht hörbar.
Bei diesem Signal vermute ich, dass etwas maschinelles dahinter steckt, also nichts natürliches, da der Peak ziemlich genau bei 100Hz liegt.
dugall1 1 year ago
@dugall1 Wenn man so ein schmales Frequenzband herausfiltert und verstärkt, ist es klar, dass dabei dieser Effekt entsteht, denn diese Frequenzen sind normaler Bestandteil von z.B. Windrauschen oder Straßenverkehr. Ganz einfaches Experiment :)
expertizzlist 1 year ago
@expertizzlist Stimmt. Dieses Geräusch könnte durch Resonanz der Umgebung im Gesamten entstehen. Habe ich auch nie verneint. Einfaches Experiment? OK. Wenn du meinst.
dugall1 1 year ago
@dugall1 Ja genau... diese ganzen Faktoren spielen ja zusammen und erzeugen unser "Grundrauschen"... der tieffrequente Anteil wird dabei wohl oft "überhört", "übertönt" oder ist einfach nicht das ausschlaggebende Charakterikum eines Geräuschs...
expertizzlist 1 year ago
@expertizzlist Stimmt. Ich werde hier später mal das Frequenzspektrum hineinstellen. Der Peak um 100Hz herum ist auffällig sichtbar und zyklischer Art. Es gibt weitere sichtbare Peaks um 50Hz herum und zwischen 4 bis 20Hz. Die allesamt das Grundgeräusch überragen, was aber nicht heisst, dass sie deswegen besser hörbar sind, da die Summe das Hauptgeräusch ausmacht.

Your sound, I don't know what it is, but don't jump to conclusions, and don't rule things out until you have some empirical evidence. It sounds very similar to mine, I couldn't tell the direction outside until after 6 months of hearing it! It is always louder inside the house, near daybreak I have found it!
It has caused me a lot of grief too, and the vibrations started waking me up over and over before I actually heard anything! (A good 5 months before I heard it, I felt it!)
MiKikaIwaShizaru 1 year ago
I feel the vibration in Hillsborough county near Tampa, I have found cell towers generating a resonance too. At home I can tell the direction of the source.
Electric feeling, vibration and hum/resonance, I am convinced it is coming from local cell towers, it keeps jumping to different towers here (compass heading changes).
Don't know WHY cell towers here started this late July 2008, how can they not know a low freq sound is being emitted for miles??
MiKikaIwaShizaru 1 year ago
Well, I found a sound here in Florida, one three separate days i tracked the sound to cell towers, no corroboration yet though.
I used a map of the local towers (antennasearch web site) and a compass, at home I marked the general direction that the sound originated from, I passed by quiet towers too, the sound was coming from the top of some towers, I believe it is called resonance.
(1 3/4 years of hell.)

Also, ich habe einen sehr guten Kopfhörer, habe das nocheinmal angehört mit vollem Bass, was ich eh ständig höre, aber nicht gehört habe die letzen 60 Minuten, da war es ruhig u nun dröhnt es dermaßen gleichartig weiter, unvorstellbar, schauderhaft ist das!
Also man kann den Ton anstossen, das sollten möglichst wohl nicht alle neugierigen Leute so wie ich das nun tat mit dem Kopfhörer anhören, danach können sie vermutlich den durch HAARP induzierten Ton dauerhaft ebenfalls wahrnehmen!
VanBanoram111 2 years ago
I hear it here in Northern Canada. There are now power lines, no cell towers, no military bases, no cities within a 70 km radius. This is simply the sound of the Earth. Our Sun also makes a sound, recorded by astronomers. It seems perfectly natural that our planet, a living breathing organism would make a sound. I think it is trying to tell us to take care of it.

Are you SURE there are no cell towers, they can disguise them as big trees, church steeples, windmills, probably floodlights too. It is in the realm of possibility that someone might be sending data wirelessly over long distances.
Does it wake you up at night, here it can be so loud it hurts my ears for hours.
I have lived here in Florida a long time, and have found cell towers that are resonating I can here/feel it over two miles away, cannot block sound at night.

@rubirioja I fully agree, it must be our planet's breath or pulse, I heard it once but is the thin ear-piercing silent noise a less audible version of this hum?
nonetheless, this louder hum seem to relax me and makes we want to go to sleep...

Can hear the noises here on the east Coast of the U.S.
Bottom line is, it is all over the earth. People from every direction are hearing it. That should eliminate the possibility this is some sort of military thing. With people from all walks of life hearing it, it leads me to think it indeed is some natural occuring thing from the earth that only some can hear.
Of course I have no idea though. I wish I did because I have heard it since about the age of 5 or 6.

Vernehme ich seit dem 23.9.2002 fast unentwegt. Merkwürdig, bevor ich das nun anhörte, hat es hier nicht sonderlich laut gebrummt, danach richtig dröhnend. Das grollende Brummen wird verursacht durch das amerikan. H.A.A.R.P mind-control-Skalarwaffenprogramm = NWO bedingt, welches über Mikrowellenfrequenzen herabgepulst auf elektromagnetische ELF-Wellen m Oberwelle 90-110 hz u nur neurophonal wahrgenommen wird. Bin frühpensioniert worden m 35 J wegen diesen Einflüssen, leide s darunter!
VanBanoram111 2 years ago
Gut möglich. Habe mich ebenfalls mit dem H.A.A.R.P. Programm auseinandergesetzt. Nach all dem was "Corporate U.S." in den letzten 100 Jahren so angestellt hat würde mich das gar nicht mehr überraschen.
Neurophonal == Neuronal-elektromagnetisch Induziert ? (statt akustisch über's Ohr)
Interessanterweise gibt es dieses Wort sonst nirgendswo mehr zu finden... Erstaunlich, hätte gedacht, dass es wenigstens in wiki zu finden sein sollte.

@dugall1 Es ist auch einfach nur ein erfundenes Wort um der obigen Theorie einen unglaublich wissenschaftlichen Anstrich zu geben. Übrigens, ELF von 90-110Hz? 90 Hz sind problemlos hörbar und damit normaler Schall. Super Geheimwaffe btw.

@expertizzlist OK. Alles klar. Es gibt Leute die die sind von einer Sache fest überzeugt und die regen sich dann fürchterlich auf wenn jemand mit einer anderen Theorie kommt als der ihren. Ich versuche objektiv zu bleiben. Ich habe auch keine konkrete Antwort auf dieses Geräusch. Was ich mit bestimmtheit weiss, ist, dass ich es selber schon mal gehört habe und es real ist und dies die Aufzeichnung davon. Jetzt hör ich es nicht mehr. Meine Freundin hingegen hört es praktisch jede Nacht.
dugall1 1 year ago
@expertizzlist Eine Zwischenfrequenz kann sich durch Schwebung ergeben. Weisst du was Schwebung ist ? (ohne gleich in Wiki zu schauen). Es kann sich aber auch durch Überlagerung bzw. Löschung von vielen verschiedenen Frequenzen eine neune hörbare ergeben. 90 Hz sind problemlos hörbar als einzelne Sinusschwingung von genügend hoher Amplitude. Ja. Aber nicht ohne weiteres wenn die Amplitude mehrer Potenzen unter dem des Umgebungsgeräusches liegt.
dugall1 1 year ago
@dugall1 Jawohl, ich bin mir über eine Schwebung im Klaren. Aber es ist ja nun einmal so, dass elektromagnetische Strahlung nicht dasselbe ist wie Schall. Es macht keinen Sinn, sich dahingehend den Kopf über ganzzahlige Schwingungsverhältnisse zu zerbrechen...
expertizzlist 1 year ago
@expertizzlist Von ganzzahligen Schwingungsverhältnissen war gar nie die Rede. Du scheinst da was durcheinander zu bringen. Elektromagnetische Strahlung ist nicht dasselbe wie Schall, stimmt! Habe ich auch nie gesagt oder geschrieben. Aber magnetische bzw. elektrische Felder können Materie zu mechanischer Schwingung anregen und somit Schall produzieren.
dugall1 1 year ago
@dugall1 Nun, ich habe die Schwingungsverhältnisse ins Feld geführt, da sie nun einmal der Grund sind, warum ein 45Hz-Ton einen 90Hz-Oberton hat, und sich hier jemand über den Zusammenhang nicht hörbarer und hörbarer Frequenzen Gedanken machte. Eine Schwebung hat damit nichts zu tun und kann auch nicht zwischen zwei Masten entstehen ...

You need a subwoofer, or very good full-range loudspeakers. Usually people don't have this kind of "good" loudspeakers. So you need at least a cheap subwoofer.

This sound is, of course, recorded and then digitally processed. So it may have some change in quality, and doesn't sound quite the same as people hear it. I for my self can say, the hum sounded/felt more like a pressure rather than an audible sound.

The sound is electomagnatism. I hear the exact same sound from every tube television that is left on, even if it's on mute or not showing anything, I hear it so long as it's on. It's a very distinct hum that all these electrical devises make, and the hum in your video matches it exactly.
pellaken 2 years ago
Usually the hum sounds from electric lines are more or less humming in a constant way.
The "Taos Hum" has a variation in amplitude although appearing to be a periodic variation.
But of course, it could have to do something with the electromagnetism from power lines that is induced to any receptive medium/matter, and that lets vibrate it in the same frequency (or harmonics) of it.
It even could let vibrate matter inside our ears, then we think it to be acoustic sounds; instead its el-magnetic.

Campi magnetici == earth magnet fields ?
Onda quantica == photon belt ?
Yes, of course, that could also be the reasons of it...
dugall1 2 years ago
By the way, the magnetic field of the earth is made up from many harmonics that change with time, it's not just a dipol field (north/south). Anyway the main earth field decreases in a relatively fast way - spoken in geological time - that's measurable. And probably will flip in some hundreds or thousands of years. We are in the midst of this process.
It could also be that the influences from space, especially the solar winds, have a different effect with the decrease of the field strength.

How does the environment look like on your hikes. Is it completely outside the nature with no man made technology, or were there some high-voltage lines or perhaps radio stations (military)? What about reception of your mobile phone? How was the signal strength?

Completely outside in nature, usually. Where there's lots of long grass. I'm not sure about the signal strength, though.

Legoman2022 2 years ago
I think, everything that produces in any way electromagnetic waves could be the cause or one of the causes of the Taos Hum. I mean, our world is full of many kinds of electromagnetic waves, especially the manmade ones pollute the natural environment completely. The sum of all radiowaves, e.g. long waves, short waves, ultra short waves, micro waves and also the natural waves, especially the Schumann "waves", additions, cancellations, reflections, etc. could be the cause of it.

resonance, from the heat exchange pumps under los alamos
ChiBriE30 2 years ago
resonance from all the human activity on the surface that cascades and sometimes is exaggerated by wave interference and interaction, maybe the multitude of waves created by surface actions sometimes slip into phase and their amplitude increases to the point of audible hum. So under my theory the hum comes from in phase waves created by something on the other side of the earth. I dont know its just a crazy theory
ChiBriE30 2 years ago
For me it doesn't sound crazy at all! To understand the Taos Hum we should consider every possible cause of it.
And that consists natural phenomena like tectonic movements, earthquakes, ocean streams/waves, electric and magnetic waves inside the earth/earth crust, inside the atmosphere and from sun and outside space.
And of course manmade effects, e.g. electromegnetic pollution of our environment, global warming, meltdown of arctic ice caps (could also be natural), atomic tests etc. etc. etc.
dugall1 2 years ago
In Europe the power lines have 50Hz. The main frequency of the signal I recorded is around 100Hz. So, if the hum in or around USA has main frequencies of 60Hz or 120Hz and in Europe 50Hz or 100Hz it must have to do something with the power lines - if.
But, for sure, it has nothing to do with an ear desease because this signal, you can hear in my video, is a real recorded one, not synthesized.
