What is Pitch ?
Sound is created by vibrations. In music world , all musical instruments creates different type of sound wave vibration. The Pitch is the frequency of sound wave vibrations and measured in hertz (abbreviated Hz).
Frequency is the number of waves that pass a given point in a certain amount of time. In other word , the total number of vibrations or oscillations made by the particles per unit time is called the Wave Frequency.
Higher frequency makes a higher pitch and Lower frequency makes a lower pitch.
For example, when an musical instrument plays different notes, they are more accurately different pitches.
Pitch is used to tune musical instruments. The following table as an
Note Name | Octave | Frequency | Time |
C | 0 | 16.351 | |
C# | 0 | 17.324 | |
D | 0 | 18.354 | |
E | 0 | 20.601 | |
F | 0 | 21.827 | |
F# | 0 | 23.124 | |
G | 0 | 24.499 |
example of the frequencies of all notes in ten octaves to a thousandth of a hertz. Octaves are presented in the Scientific Pitch Notation format, also commonly referred to as American Pitch Notation and International Pitch Notation.
