What is the overtone series?

The overtone series is a series of frequencies that are integer multiples of the fundamental frequency of a sound. When a musical instrument produces a note, it actually produces a complex waveform that includes the fundamental frequency and various overtones. These overtones give each instrument its unique tone color or timbre.


What gives a musical note is characteristic quality?

The quality of a musical note depends on the number and relative intensity of the overtones it produces along with the fundamental. It is the element of quality that enables us to distinguish between notes of the same frequency and intensity coming from different sources.


How do you calculate overtones and fundamental frequency?

By using the fundamental note (lets say A at 220 hz) the first overtone will be 220 hz + itself = 1st Overtone 440hz, The next overtone is the fundament + the first overtone = 660 hz, The third will be 660hz + the fundamental = 880 hz, and so on f= Fundamental Note (or frequancy) f+f = First overtone f+ First overtone= Second overtone f+ second overtone = Third overtone ect, ect, ect, This formula continues as until you with to stop calulating.


Overtones are high frequency sound waves?

Yes. The first overtone is one octave above the first note, The next overtone is a fifth above that. The volume of each overtone creates the timbre of the sound. Is it a flute that has evenly decreasing sound overtones or is it an oboe with different volumes of overtones?


Why is there a B-flat clarinet?

The truth actually lies in the construction of the instrument. There also exist clarinets in other keys - C, A, and Eb are most common, I think. The clarinet makes noise by vibrating the air inside with breath, and pitch is manipulated by the holes outside. Depending on how the holes are constructed, the fundamental tone (or the note of the key the instrument is constructed for) is changed. Eb clarinets have a different fundamental tone than Bb clarinets, and so forth. This affects the range it can play, because all notes other than that fundamental tone are multiples of (the frequency of) that fundamental tone. Change the fundamental tone, and you get a different set of multiples, called overtones. These overtones differentiate the clarinet keys. An A clarinet has different overtones from an Eb clarinet from a Bb clarinet and so on, and therefore a slightly different range of possible notes that can be played. Bb clarinets are most common because it fits with the usual range of most modern concert bands and compositions, but depending on the demands of the piece in question, you can have other needs that can be filled by these differently-ranged instruments. == == == ==


What does the chord of c mean?

Means it's a chord were C is the fundamental note. The fundamental note, is the note from were the chord is constructed. So if it's a C major chord, it could be C E G or C E G B


Relationship between the frequency of the overtones and the and the fundamental frequency?

Fundamental frequency = 1st harmonic.2nd harmonic = 1st overtone.3rd harmonic = 2nd overtone.4th harmonic = 3rd overtone.5th harmonic = 4th overtone.6th harmonic = 5th overtone.Look at the link: "Calculations of Harmonics from Fundamental Frequency".


What is the lowest frequency of a note in the overtone series known as?

It is called the fundamental.


What is a fundamental mode of vibration?

The fundamental frequency is the lowest mode of vibration of a system. If you think of a taut string, the lowest mode with which it can vibrate is the one where the centre of the string travels the maximum distance up and down so the string forms a single arc. It is also possible for it to vibrate so that two arcs (one up and one down) fit into the string, and there are many more possibilities with higher frequencies. On a stringed instrument you can hear the fundamental frequency as the normal note which the string plays, and the others as overtones. Other systems exhibit the same phenomenon.


What is a 7 band Equalizer?

A 7 band equaliser is a device that has 7 separate frequency range sliders, were the frequency is centered on the frequency stated below the slider. When a note is played it is made up of a series of frequencies, the fundamental being the one you hear and then a series of harmonics or overtones. A slider will then increase or decrease the 'intensity' of the overtones within its frequency range, depending on the position of the slider. Most sliders can increase or decrease the intensity of a certain overtone by up to 12 or 15dB. The use is to make a note or music played sound of higher or bassier sound, if you have one push the sliders on the left up and you get a real 'thuddy' bass sound and the ones on the right give you a real 'tinny' high pitched sound. A typical guitar EQ will have sliders centered on say 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200 and 6400Hz. The reason for the larger gap between the frequency sliders as the frequency increases is due to the ears response to sound, (The ear can distinguish between different frequencies better at low frequencies).
