I am now thoroughly convinced my neighbor does not like loud bass

LOL 

If you heard her knocking, your music wasn't that loud. 

I hate my neighbor's loud bass as well. While I love bass heavy music up front, there is nothing worse, IMO, than the sound of muffled bass coming through a wall when you're trying to concentrate. Muffled TV dialog as well, that really lights my fuse.

It shows in the way she attacks my door at like 12:20 am.  What is wrong with this crazy person that she knocks like that?  Screaming like a maniac, "turn that down."

Its either the kick drum, or the bass she has a problem with.  ALthough, in my defense..  I was actually working on a really distorted synth sound..

Pfft..  these people are so nuts...  who even knows..  

Neighbours can be so inconsiderate. Last week mine were banging on the walls at 3am.... Luckily for them they didn't wake me because I was still up practicing on my drums...

Is her name Lew (or Lou)?

If you are operating within your municipality's noise ordinances tell her to get lost. If you are cranking it up in the middle of the night or obnoxiously early... well that is pretty annoying. I've always made sure I shut down the noise before 10 PM. But you said she's freaking out at noon so as I said tell her get lost. Let her call the cops. They'll likely tell her to stop harassing you and wasting their time.

Maybe if you had an Alembic.  

When my neighbor does that, I don't bother banging on his door, I just call the cops and let them deal with it. He's really pissed now because he doesn't know who called them ! hahahaha !!!!


nice and quiet now !!

I've recently discovered that there are so many non-musical ways to disturb your neighbor. Mine is this 20 year old d-bag who makes a point of digging in with his toes when he's walking up the stairs, so that his sneakers make a squeaking noise with each step. You can hear it 5 flights down and all the way up. He also slams his door when he comes and goes. The kid sells weed, not very discretely, and so he has people coming and going all the time. He has to let them in the building because the buzzer is broken, so it's up and down the stairs all night with that infernal squeaking, then everyone is slamming the door as they're entering or leaving. Sometimes they wake me up at 4am because they're rapping to each other - badly - and stomping their feet to keep rhythm. 

Oh and now he's gotten himself a little pit bull puppy that yaps for 15 minutes whenever he leaves. 

I hate him.

Walk up to her and tell her that if you make it big that you promise her a check for 10k dollars.
 
She will never say anything again about the music ... and what the heck, if you can make a million, you can afford a few peanuts anyway!
 
Watch her shut up quick! It works better than Lotto tickets!

Actually, Moshkiae back in the day I was fully prepared to bribe any neighbors who were getting upset. Fortunately no one ever did because I tried to be respectful.

For a short period I used to have a neighbour that knocked on the wall when I was recording guitar.
But I'm usually quite quiet.
And I never complained to her about the noise I heard her making in bed.

 Oh no. I won't ask.
 
Linear Phase, If you are mixing many of the experts will tell you that the lower levels are best to hear the mix entirely. If you're making hip hop beatz going into those frequencies that might set off small earthquakes then yeah I'd get a set of headphones that I like and wear them after 9-10pm.
 
 Out where I live the crickets and locusts get so loud outside that they pretty much drown out most of what I do.I do my wife a big favor and put the headphones on after around 9. I might repeat a part several hundred times and that can drive some people insane, not to mention the noise.
