  2. Mode (music) - Wikipedia

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

    A mode indicated a primary pitch (a final), the organization of pitches in relation to the final, the suggested range, the melodic formulas associated with different modes, the location and importance of cadences, and the affect (i.e., emotional effect/character). Liane Curtis writes that "Modes should not be equated with scales: principles of ...

  4. Harmonic series (music) - Wikipedia

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

    When one contrasts this with a dissonant interval such as a tritone (not tempered) with a frequency ratio of 7:5 one gets, for example, 700 − 500 = 200 (1st order combination tone) and 500 − 200 = 300 (2nd order). The rest of the combination tones are octaves of 100 Hz so the 7:5 interval actually contains four notes: 100 Hz (and its ...

    Harmonic series on C, partials 1–5 numbered Play ⓘ. Harmonic series on G, partials 1–5 numbered Play ⓘ.. The harmonic scale is a "super-just" musical scale allowing extended just intonation, beyond 5-limit to the 19th harmonic (Play ⓘ), and free modulation through the use of synthesizers.

  6. Time–frequency analysis for music signals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time–frequency_analysis...

    Musical sound can be more complicated than human vocal sound, occupying a wider band of frequency. Music signals are time-varying signals; while the classic Fourier transform is not sufficient to analyze them, time–frequency analysis is an efficient tool for such use. Time–frequency analysis is extended from the classic Fourier approach.

  7. Mode of limited transposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_of_limited_transposition

    Modes of limited transposition are musical modes or scales that fulfill specific criteria relating to their symmetry and the repetition of their interval groups. These scales may be transposed to all twelve notes of the chromatic scale, but at least two of these transpositions must result in the same pitch classes, thus their transpositions are "limited".

  8. Undertone series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undertone_series

    Undertone series on C. [1] In music, the undertone series or subharmonic series is a sequence of notes that results from inverting the intervals of the overtone series.While overtones naturally occur with the physical production of music on instruments, undertones must be produced in unusual ways.

  9. Overtone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overtone

    The lowest normal mode frequency is known as the fundamental frequency, while the higher frequencies are called overtones. Often, when an oscillator is excited — for example, by plucking a guitar string — it will oscillate at several of its modal frequencies at the same time.
