Not an audiophile, but one way might be tuning forks. That said, I would be super surprised if this was needed for high-end microphones.

- amluto 4y agoA microphone’s ability to reliably identify a frequency is excellent, even if the microphone is cheap, crappy and uncalibrated. It’s almost entirely a function of whatever clock is used to digitize it, and oscillator chips that are just fine are ubiquitous. The issue is calibrating the amplitude response at a given frequency, and a tuning fork won’t help. edit: those quartz oscillator chips have a lot in common with tuning forks.
- brokenmachine 4y agoNow I'm imagining using thousands of tuning forks with calibrated knockers.
