  2. Scientific pitch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_pitch

    Scientific pitch, also known as philosophical pitch, Sauveur pitch or Verdi tuning, is an absolute concert pitch standard which is based on middle C (C 4) being set to 256 Hz rather than ~ 261.63 Hz, [a] making it ~ 31.77 cents lower than the common A440 pitch standard.

  3. Audio therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_Therapy

    Audio therapy is the clinical use of recorded sound, music, or spoken words, or a combination thereof, recorded on a physical medium such as a compact disc (CD), or a digital file, including those formatted as MP3, which patients or participants play on a suitable device, and to which they listen with intent to experience a subsequent beneficial physiological, psychological, or social effect.

  4. Brown note - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_note

    Very high power levels of 160 dB were achieved at frequencies of 2–3 Hz. Test frequencies ranged from 0.5 Hz to 40 Hz. Test subjects suffered motor ataxia, nausea, visual disturbance, degraded task performance and difficulties in communication. These tests are assumed by researchers to be the nucleus of the current urban myth. [2] [3]

  5. Audio frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_frequency

    Frequencies below 20 Hz are generally felt rather than heard, assuming the amplitude of the vibration is great enough. Sound frequencies above 20 kHz are called ultrasonic. Sound propagates as mechanical vibration waves of pressure and displacement, in air or other substances. [5] In general, frequency components of a sound determine its "color ...

  6. Piano key frequencies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piano_key_frequencies

    This is a list of the fundamental frequencies in hertz (cycles per second) of the keys of a modern 88-key standard or 108-key extended piano in twelve-tone equal temperament, with the 49th key, the fifth A (called A 4), tuned to 440 Hz (referred to as A440). [1] [2] Every octave is made of twelve steps called semitones.

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

    The sound appears to pulsate only when heard through both earphones. Time duration of 10 seconds Binaural Beats Base tone 200 Hz, beat frequency from 7 Hz to 12.9 Hz. Time duration of 9 minutes. "Binaural beats were first discovered by physicist Heinrich Wilhelm Dove in 1839.

  8. Spectral density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_density

    The spectral centroid of a signal is the midpoint of its spectral density function, i.e. the frequency that divides the distribution into two equal parts. The spectral edge frequency (SEF), usually expressed as "SEF x", represents the frequency below which x percent of the total power of a given signal are located; typically, x is in the range ...

  9. Gamma wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_wave

    A gamma wave or gamma rhythm is a pattern of neural oscillation in humans with a frequency between 30 and 100 Hz, the 40 Hz point being of particular interest. [1] Gamma waves with frequencies between 30 and 70 hertz may be classified as low gamma, and those between 70 and 150 hertz as high gamma.
