  2. Acoustic resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_resonance

    Experiment using two tuning forks oscillating at the same frequency.One of the forks is being hit with a rubberized mallet. Although the first tuning fork hasn't been hit, the other fork is visibly excited due to the oscillation caused by the periodic change in the pressure and density of the air by hitting the other fork, creating an acoustic resonance between the forks.

  3. Beat (acoustics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beat_(acoustics)

    With only one tone (as opposed to two tones with binaural beats), your brain has a much easier time adjusting and there is no need to balance separate tones. Monaural beats are combined into one sound before they actually reach the human ear, as opposed to formulated in part by the brain itself, which occurs with a binaural beat.

  4. Click track - Wikipedia

    The frames were in the beat of the music; so in twelve-frame, or sixteen-frame, or whatever. That way, we were able to synchronise the scenes, which were shot separately, of course. My contribution to sound-cartoons were that I knew what a metronome was. [2] This system evolved with use.

  5. Sound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound

    Humans normally hear sound frequencies between approximately 20 Hz and 20,000 Hz (20 kHz), [18]: 382 The upper limit decreases with age. [18]: 249 Sometimes sound refers to only those vibrations with frequencies that are within the hearing range for humans [19] or sometimes it relates to a particular animal. Other species have different ranges ...

  6. Beat (music) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beat_(music)

    In reggae music, the term one drop reflects the complete de-emphasis (to the point of silence) of the first beat in the cycle. James Brown 's signature funk groove emphasized the downbeat – that is, with heavy emphasis "on the one" (the first beat of every measure) – to etch his distinctive sound, rather than the back beat (familiar to many ...

  7. Elements of music - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elements_of_music

    Some definitions refer to music as a score, or a composition: [18] [7] [19] music can be read as well as heard, and a piece of music written but never played is a piece of music notwithstanding. According to Edward E. Gordon the process of reading music , at least for trained musicians, involves a process, called "inner hearing" or "audiation ...

  8. Click (acoustics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Click_(acoustics)

    In sample recording, digital clicks occur when the signal levels of two adjacent audio sections do not match. The abrupt change in gain can be perceived as a click. [5] In electronic music, clicks are used as a musical element, particularly in glitch and noise music, for example in the Clicks & Cuts Series (2000–2010). [6] [7]

  9. Echoic memory - Wikipedia

    The first is the storage of words that we hear, this tends to have the capacity to retain information for 3–4 seconds before decay, which is a much longer duration than iconic memory (which is less than 1000ms). The second is a sub-vocal rehearsal process to keep refreshing the memory trace by the using one's "inner voice".
