Subject: pitch perception of a couple of tones From: Li Tianhao <tianhl@xxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 12 Dec 2009 04:28:53 +0000 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>--_f6663dca-9e94-43e2-9bcf-90e11b7667e3_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Dear list=2C I don't how to analyze the perception of pitch given the combination of a c= ouple of tones (e.g.=2C a signal: s(t) =3D A1*sin(f1*t+..) + A2*sin(f2*t+..= )+...+). These tones are not harmonic complexes. The carrier frequencies ar= e quite randomly distributed within a small or large range. Which theoretical framework should I use to predict the pitch sensation bro= ught by the signal(s(t))? Please give me a clue. Thanks.
