Question
Answer
Harmonics and envelope give sound...   show
🗑
show most basic sound, simplest type of wave you can have. have flute-like character. No harmonics. (flute has a sound that contains very few additional frequencies)  
🗑
show ...sine waves superimposed on others.  
🗑
complex sounds have...   show
🗑
show what overtones are called in pitched sounds like musical notes. multiples of the fundamental.  
🗑
fundamental frequency can also be labeled as...   show
🗑
show 2X the fundamental  
🗑
third harmonic   show
🗑
sawtooth wave   show
🗑
show it all odd numbered harmonics are present at the same relative amplitude. Skip every other harmonic frequency (1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11....) still sounds kinda bad  
🗑
Why can't you make a square wave with all even harmonics?   show
🗑
complex waves   show
🗑
show harmonics can be called overtones, but not all overtones are harmonics  
🗑
How do we differentiate 'voices'?   show
🗑
show the combination of all the elements of your vocal tract; vocal cords, sinuses, oral cavity, etc.  
🗑
spectrogram   show
🗑
show ...different harmonic content. Those high frequencies are important in allowing us to differentiate between the sounds in voices.  
🗑
show high frequency sounds that are important to keep so we can differentiate them  
🗑
show You're left with unintelligible, muffled voices  
🗑
show musical term for harmonic character of different instruments  
🗑
show pitched sound and noise based sounds  
🗑
pitched sounds   show
🗑
show indistinct fundamental frequencies and overtones. drums and cymbals and any other non pitched rhythm instruments. Have frequencies that aren't multiples of the fundamental, so they're called overtones, not harmonics  
🗑
What determines our perception and recognition of a sound?   show
🗑
show term used to describe the change that takes place to sound over time. How a sound stars, (suddenly or gradually) decays, and ends  
🗑
What does envelope apply to?   show
🗑
audio tracks on digital editing softwares are a...   show
🗑
show attack, decay, sustain, release  
🗑
show energy enters the piano string, amplitude grows  
🗑
show point where sound (amplitude) is dying away the most rapidly, a little arbitrary and hard to decide for absolute sure  
🗑
show amplitude changes very minimally  
🗑
release   show
🗑
dynamic range   show
🗑
show ...each part of the chain has a measurable dynamic range, and the overall system also has a measurable dynamic range  
🗑
noise floor   show
🗑
show ...the lower the noise floor  
🗑
clipping   show
🗑
clipped flattened tops represent...   show
🗑
show ...to keep signal above the noise floor and below clipping from source to output  
🗑
