Starting at any note the frequency to other notes may be calculated from its frequency by: Freq = note x 2N/12, where N is the number of notes away from the starting note. N may be positive, negative or zero. For example, starting at D (146.84 Hz), the frequency to the next highe...
MUSICAL NOTES FREQUENCYdoi:10.1016/B978-0-408-00314-8.50094-9H. W. MoorsheadNewnes Radio and Electronics Engineer's Pocket Book (Fifteenth Edition)
The frequency of intermediate notes, or pitches, can be found simply by multiplying (dividing) a given starting pitch by as many factors of the twelfth root of 2 as there are steps up to (down to) the desired pitch. For example, the G above A4 (that is, G5) in the American Standar...

Music is defined by a pattern of notes distributed over time with each note being associated with a frequency. However, we are left with the decision as to what these frequencies should be. This chapter focuses on this decision. When an ensemble of musicians, whether small or as large as ...
This paper describes several approaches to analyzing the frequency, or pitch, content of the sounds produced by musical instruments. The classic method, using Fourier analysis, identifies fundamentals and overtones of individual notes. A second method, using spectrograms, analyzes the changes in fundame...
Adding Notes to a Chord You can add notes to a chord manually, if that suits you: constchord=newOctavian.Chord('C4');chord.signatures;// returns ['C4']chord.addInterval('majorThird');chord.signatures;// returns ['C4', 'E4']chord.addInterval(7);chord.signatures;// returns ['C4',...

The eighth note, or octave, is given the same name as the first, but has double its frequency. The name octave is also used to indicate the span between a note and another with double frequency. To differentiate two notes that have the same pitch class but fall ...
determining how musical notes are organized into scales, how these scales are tuned, and how chords are constructed from these scales4,5,6,7,8. It has consequently drawn sustained attention from many researchers ranging from philosophers (Pythagoras) to mathematicians (Leibniz, Euler), music theori...
