Excerpts from Rustom Mody's message of 2011-07-17 05:33:44 +0200: > I am preparing to give a talk on the wider ramifications of music. > One of the things I wish to demonstrate is that things that look different > are merely analogs but at different scales. > > eg if something vibrates at 400Hz we hear a sound of A-flat. If it > 'vibrates' at 4 Hz we hear a beat. > In the same analogy a 2 vs 3 poly-rhythm (should?) change to a do-so chord. > And so on. I suggest you do some experiments before you give a talk. At 4 Hz you won't be able to hear anything, you won't even be able to reproduce a 4 Hz sound with common speakers. > Is there some kind of software where I can make a 4 Hz beat and pull a > slider or a freq text box entry until it sound like a A-flat note? puredata springs to mind, it's easy to use and has everything you need.
