A4 =440hZ A5 =880HZ
Yes. Both frequencies are actually A (La) but an octave apart. The mentioned 440Hz will be the A4 (5th A on a 88 key piano) while the fourth A on the piano sounds at 220Hz.
The fundamental is the lowest frequency; the harmonics are all multiples of that frequency. For example, if you play a concert A (440Hz) on a trumpet, the harmonics of that tone would be at 880, 1320, 1760, 2200, 2640, 3080, 3520, 3960, 4400Hz, and so on.In most cases, people do not perceive the harmonics as separate pitches, but as part of the sound. They give the tone its distinctive timbre--in this example, the sound of a trumpet. However, if there are objects nearby, such as strings, bells or even glassware, which are resonant at one of the harmonic frequencies, they can be excited by the tone and will continue to "ring" after the note stops. A resonant filter can be used to pick out the harmonics, as well. The harmonics can also be visualized on an audio spectrometer.Harmonics are not limited to sound waves; they can be present in any periodic motion or waveform, including radio waves.
Tough one! You see, there is a term for both thefrequency and the level. The most common term for the frequency would be the "Pitch" of the sound, and the frequency unit of measurement is the Hertz (cycles per second) or Hz. It is an accepted standard that the average Human can hear a spectrum from 20Hz (really low pitch) to 20kHz (really high pitch). The level of sound is commonly referred to as the "Loudness" and is measured in Decibels (db) and the most common measuring device is called an SPL (sound pressure level) Meter. So...If you were describing, lets say, a very loud "A" note above middle "C", the description could look like this; 440Hz @ +110db. Dave Bowling (db)
440Hz
Because it's been decided that 440Hz is A, not C.
The oboe is in the key of C. When an oboe plays its A, it is 440Hz.
A4 =440hZ A5 =880HZ
The noise you hear when you pick up a telephone to tell you it is working and waiting for you to dial a number.
The default setting is for A major at 440Hz but there is a transpose function which will allow you to flatten it by 2 semitones so it will display correctly for a trumpet.
It depends how high the sound is, the a above middle C is 440Hz (vibrations/second) and there are 110Hz in an octave. From there you can work out the Hz of any note.
the korg tuner I have and wikipedia if you look up guitar tuning will both say and do right out of the box for my chromatic tuners case 440HZ
The A just above middle C on the piano keyboard. This is approximately 440Hz. The frequency, curiously, varies a bit regionally/nationally. In Europe, for example, it's typically a few Hz higher.
Yes, you can try other frequencies if your tuner supports this. Look into 432hz which is lower than the standard 440hz. It's also called the classical tuning and slightly lower than 440.
The frequency of the vibrations by the strings and the sound that it produces can be divided (or multiplied) into smaller (or larger) frequencies. The changed frequencies make notes. For example, middle C has a frequency of 278.4375 Hz and the A above that has a frequency of 440Hz.
B flat major is a scale, which is a series of notes played in succesion, going up and down. The musical note B flat is just one frequency which is a semitone above A. Concert A (the most used middle A) is at 440Hz.
