Hello. I've been wondering.... When Banade lists a series of 'heterodyne' or comb tones elements such as "3P, 2P+Q...", is the "3P" component by itelf a...
... You can think of the 3P as P+P+P -- it's simply a cubic combinational tone like just like P+P+Q (=2P+Q). ... (3P- ... That's a combinational tone, but not...

In the case of equal temperament, the beating will quickly cycle you through all relative phases, so the amplitudes over time will average out to being equal. ...

Hi Kelly, I think Paul answered the points on phi pretty much as I would have, so I won't repeat any of that. But I'm intrigued by your synaesthetic experience...

Kelly, You're actually talking o some fairly subtle sounds - for example, balloons rubbing together - and some that are very difficult to record realistically...
Hi Kelly, True synaesthesia, as I understand it, consists in perceiving things _as if_ through another sense; there's no question of forcing anything. ...
Hi again Kelly, I read your reference right through. Well, the first few paragraphs - up to the heading "Applications?" - seems sound enough, if basic, ...
