As a rule, the amplitude of its vibration is less for higher harmonics than for lower, meaning that higher harmonics are softer though the details of this differ from instrument to instrument.
32.
The method was used for the generation of higher harmonics and ( as a type of laser tunneling microscope ) for exploration of atoms and molecules in the angstrom range and below.
33.
Presence of higher harmonics in addition to the fundamental causes variation in the timbre, which is the reason why the same musical note ( the same frequency ) played on different instruments sounds different.
34.
By feeding the HBV a signal of low frequency f 1, higher harmonics f 3 = 3f 1 ( tripler ), f 5 = 5f 1 ( quintupler ), . . . will be generated.
35.
After all, also a high-Q resonator gets higher harmonics excited alongside of the fundamental, and the amplitude of the harmonics ( in units of the fundamental's amplitude ) is what defines the tone or timbre.
36.
The musical partial present ( the fundamental frequency ), which may be the one created by vibration over the full length of the string or air column, or a higher harmonic chosen by the player.
37.
The gaps between the higher harmonics are smaller still, so no more than three valves are required to provide a saxotromba with a full chromatic compass; this is true even if the seventh harmonic is not used.
38.
The gaps between the higher harmonics are smaller still, so no more than three valves are required to provide such an instrument with a full chromatic compass; this is true even if the seventh harmonic is not used.
39.
Each of the four concealed wind groups consists of a bass instrument, which plays either a fundamental tone or a second or fourth harmonic above a virtual fundamental, and four treble instruments that provide a cluster of higher harmonics.
40.
Playing with full registration ( all the stops out ) on an organ that is heavily unified and duplexed may result in an occasional chord that sounds thinner or that emphasizes higher harmonics more on some notes than on others.
