2. Beat (acoustics) - Wikipedia

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

   For example, if a 530 Hz pure tone is presented to a subject's right ear, while a 520 Hz pure tone is presented to the subject's left ear, the listener will hear beating at a rate of 10 Hz, just as if the two tones were presented monaurally, but the beating will have an element of lateral motion as well.

3. Clock generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_generator

   The generator may have additional sections to modify the basic signal. The 8088 for example, used a 2/3 duty cycle clock, which required the clock generator to incorporate logic to convert the 50/50 duty cycle which is typical of raw oscillators. Other such optional sections include frequency divider or clock multiplier sections. Programmable ...

4. Function generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_generator

   A completely different approach to function generation is to use software instructions to generate a waveform, with provision for output. For example, a general-purpose digital computer can be used to generate the waveform; if frequency range and amplitude are acceptable, the sound card fitted to most computers can be used to output the generated wave.

6. Pure tone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pure_tone

   A pure tone's pressure waveform versus time looks like this; its frequency determines the x axis scale; its amplitude determines the y axis scale; and its phase determines the x origin. In psychoacoustics , a pure tone is a sound with a sinusoidal waveform ; that is, a sine wave of constant frequency , phase-shift , and amplitude . [ 1 ]

7. Signal generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_generator

   A signal generator is one of a class of electronic devices that generates electrical signals with set properties of amplitude, frequency, and wave shape. These generated signals are used as a stimulus for electronic measurements, typically used in designing, testing, troubleshooting, and repairing electronic or electroacoustic devices, though it often has artistic uses as well.

8. Tuning fork - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuning_fork

   The main reason for using the fork shape is that, unlike many other types of resonators, it produces a very pure tone, with most of the vibrational energy at the fundamental frequency. The reason for this is that the frequency of the first overtone is about ⁠ 5 2 / 2 2 ⁠ = ⁠ 25 / 4 ⁠ = 6 + 1 ⁄ 4 times the fundamental (about 2 + 1 ...

9. Harmonic series (music) - Wikipedia

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

   For example, a perfect fifth, say 200 and 300 Hz (cycles per second), causes a listener to perceive a combination tone of 100 Hz (the difference between 300 Hz and 200 Hz); that is, an octave below the lower (actual sounding) note. This 100 Hz first-order combination tone then interacts with both notes of the interval to produce second-order ...
