  2. Sinewave synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinewave_synthesis

    Sinewave synthesis, or sine wave speech, is a technique for synthesizing speech by replacing the formants (main bands of energy) with pure tone whistles. The first sinewave synthesis program ( SWS ) for the automatic creation of stimuli for perceptual experiments was developed by Philip Rubin at Haskins Laboratories in the 1970s.

  3. Vibroacoustic therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibroacoustic_Therapy

    Human mechanoreceptors, such as Pacinian corpuscles, can detect vibrations up to 1,000 Hz, frequencies between 30 Hz and 120 Hz are generally considered to have a calming and relaxing effect, which is why they are often used in therapeutic contexts.40 Hz specifically, has been widely studied in vibroacoustic therapy and other fields due to its ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_musical_symbols

    Musical symbols are marks and symbols in musical notation that indicate various aspects of how a piece of music is to be performed. There are symbols to communicate information about many musical elements, including pitch, duration, dynamics, or articulation of musical notes; tempo, metre, form (e.g., whether sections are repeated), and details about specific playing techniques (e.g., which ...

  7. Comparison of analog and digital recording - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_analog_and...

    The dynamic range of an audio system is a measure of the difference between the smallest and largest amplitude values that can be represented in a medium. Digital and analog differ in both the methods of transfer and storage, as well as the behavior exhibited by the systems due to these methods.

  8. Sine wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine_wave

    Tracing the y component of a circle while going around the circle results in a sine wave (red). Tracing the x component results in a cosine wave (blue). Both waves are sinusoids of the same frequency but different phases. A sine wave, sinusoidal wave, or sinusoid (symbol: ∿) is a periodic wave whose waveform (shape) is the trigonometric sine ...

  9. Overtone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overtone

    In barbershop music, a style of four-part singing, the word overtone is often used in a related but particular manner. It refers to a psychoacoustic effect in which a listener hears an audible pitch that is higher than, and different from, the fundamentals of the four pitches being sung by the quartet.
