Sure: pipe organs, large bass drums, hall characteristics when previously mention instruments are active... It really all depends on what instrumentation was written into the music, and how up to date the recording is. Admittedly if I haven't said it before, you never know. But when it comes, it can be spectacular. Fortunately, I don't really have noise problems where I live, at least none that are extremely obnoxious for too long...unless I'm making them...I remember many years ago, I did a live recording at the factory so I could write something about it for the company quarterly. This was a sheet metal factory, made their own product. Big punch presses and things. When I reviewed the tape, I heard the low thud of one of the punch presses on the tape. Most of the HF energy of the machine had dissapated through the walls, corridors etc. leading to the conference room. But the pounding low frequency came through and actually recorded pretty well. I almost said WTF when I listened.
