    Ordinary people have better reading performance using high-frequency (20–60 kHz) electronic ballasts than magnetic ballasts, [10] although the effect was small except at high contrast ratio. The flicker of fluorescent lamps, even with magnetic ballasts, is so rapid that it is unlikely to present a hazard to individuals with epilepsy . [ 11 ]

Transposing can be called frequency scaling or pitch shifting, depending on perspective.
