Technically, the Inchindown oil tanks in Invergordon, Scotland, have the world's longest reverberation, but that makes a much worse title. We tested them with a loud noise and some very sensitive microphones.

@MGSLurmey 5 лет назад

I don't think the smell is the problem you need to worry about. Any source of ignition is what you need to worry about. There's no ventilation, no easy escape and a lot of easily flammable and hard to extinguish oil everywhere.

@mukrifachri 5 лет назад

Depends on the fuel oil stored -most fuel oils actually don't combust easily, if you dip a flame into it it'd extinguish the flame. Kind of the same with some jet engine fuel. But once it's been sprayed it'll combust very easily (and so it is *still* dangerous.)

@Darthybuddy 4 года назад

As a person in choir. That would suck for the choir. There is a happy middle ground between no reverb (think singing outside in a field) and too much (singing in a room like this). If you get too much reverb, anything fancy you try to do vocally will just be drowned out by reverb from earlier. Too little reverb and chords don’t sound right and it’s tough to stay in tune because you can’t hear the complete sound bouncing back at you.

One of the most impressive echoes I've ever heard was from a small island in a large lake. Far off in the distance was a monolithic rock face. We would yell a few words towards the mountain, then wait ... a long time. (I was just a kid, but as I remember it, it was maybe 10 or 20 seconds.) When the echo finally got back to us, it was just a low thunder-like rumble because the sound had distorted so much on the round-trip journey.

@McGowanForge 4 года назад

Not a good idea here I'll list why- 1-you would need to super clean it meaning the whole place would need to be washed 2-the sound alone of the reverb would drive you crazy, and make your hearing go bad after a while 3-not easy to get in and out meaning you can only get things that are small in there If you added another Floor it could help and mabye put foam sound pads it could work, I would take a cutting torch to those holes to make em bigger, and I would make that my only "bunker down" Place and have a regular base near by outside of that, that's just my 2 sence don't mind me
