A low hum in United States, Chesterfield

It is an extremely low vibrational hum that can be felt in my body. I just want to point out 1. It feels like it comes from he Earth. 2. My microphone can pick up the sound from my sound booth that in there I cannot hear but I watch it moving on the software. When I open the sound booth door I can hear it. 3. It absolutely changes from constant sometimes to pulses or beats like morse code but the vibration is always there - the feeling in my body. It is the same "from the Earth" sound. 4. I have "investigated" this sound from inside the house, outside, ensured things like the house central systems are off, etc. The sound remains. 5. I have gone and had my hearing checked by a professional to ensure it wasn't my ears playing tricks on me. 6. It vibrates inside my body and makes me not feel good.

What they reported

First noticed: 2022

Pitch: 55 - 70. 55 when it is constant. Then when it is changing sounds it sounds like it goes up to the 70 and then beats between. I am a professional voice actor and have extremly sensitive equipment to listen with. This makes my microphones jump in ticks often when it is lower than 50.

Loudest: During the night

Where: Equal indoors and outdoors

Symptoms: Insomnia, Sense of vibration, Anxiety, Overall ill ease.

Changes with weather: I don't think so.

What stood out: a low hum

Low frequency hum, always same frequency, I'd estimate around 50hz (at least my perception). I only hear it at/in my home, if I'm at another location, I don't think I've ever heard of it.
