Basically, the click of the metronome hits when the waveform is exactly at zero dB (at the same milisecond it touches the X axis). Kinda useless anyway lol
Yes but you know, if we stay within that idea, we could find for a same frequency more than a single BPM. First, we can double or halve them and it'll still be in phase, but also use triplets or dotted notes instead of a "normal" note like 1/128th (or 1/8th. etc..). That would make 3 possible BPM for a same frequency.
But no, I really don't use any sort of rule when choosing a BPM, I go with the groove I have in my head... we're not robots
Talking of timbre and instruments, maybe you could help me. I'd like to try another useless idea and find the resonant frequency of an instrument (my acoustic guitar) and derive a tuning from it. Do you know how I could do it ? I thought about gluing a speaker on its back and record the soundhole while sweeping a sine tone. I dunno..
Yes I was thinking about it. What's cool is when you have the equations, Excell can become very handy. I keep the 2 oscillator things in mind.
Exactly. In this example it'll work with 256 subdivisions in a bar (if we consider half a cycle).
I'm actually suggesting that it can be an inspiring reason to do so but nothing more. Like, it can be cool to try it for a tune or something, but no.. I don't make my music based off that.
