  4. Synthetic Trumpet • Real musical instruments produce almost-harmonic sounds • The waveform of this synthetic trumpet repeats more exactly than that of a real instrument

  5. Spectrum of a Sound • For any periodic waveform, we can find the spectrum of the waveform. • The spectrum is the relative amplitudes of the harmonics that make up the waveform. • The plural form of the word "spectrum" is "spectra."

  6. Spectrum of a Sound • Example: amp1 = 1, amp2 = .5, and amp3 = .25, the spectrum = {1, .5, .25}. • The following graphs show the usual ways to represent the spectrum: Frequency Harmonic Number

  7. Finding the Spectrum of a Sound • isolate one period of the waveform • Discrete Fourier Transform of the period. • These steps together are called spectrum analysis.

  8. time-varying Fourier Analysis Fourier Coefficients Math amplitudes and phases Time-Varying Fourier Analysis sound • User specifies the fundamental frequency for ONE tone • Automatically finding the fundamental frequency is called pitch tracking — a current research problem • For example, for middle C: f1=261.6

  9. Time-Varying Fourier Analysis • Construct a window function that spans two periods of the waveform. • The most commonly used windows are called Rectangular (basically no window), Hamming, Hanning, Kaiser and Blackman. • Except for the Rectangular window, most look like half a period of a sine wave:

  10. Time-Varying Fourier Analysis • The window function isolates the samples of two periods so we can find the spectrum of the sound.

  11. Time-Varying Fourier Analysis • The window function will smooth samples at the window endpoints to correct the inaccurate user-specified fundamental frequency. • For example, if the user estimates f1=261.6, but it really is 259 Hz.

  12. Time-Varying Fourier Analysis • Samples are only non-zero in windowed region, and windowed samples are zero at endpoints.

  13. Time-Varying Fourier Analysis • Apply window and Fourier Transform to successive blocks of windowed samples. • Slide blocks one period each time.

  14. Spectrum Analysis • We analyze the tone (using the Fourier transform) to find out the strength of the harmonic partials • Here is a snapshot of a [i:37] trumpet tone one second after the start of the tone

  15. Trumpet's First Harmonic • The trumpet's first harmonic fades in and out as shown in this amplitude envelope:
