Decibel Levels of Common Sounds

                  4. Timbre (Tone Quality)
                  Timbre is the quality that makes different instruments or voices sound unique, even when playing

                  the same pitch and loudness.

                  HUMAN PERCEPTION OF SOUND

                  Humans  typically  hear frequencies
                  between 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz. Sounds
                  above  20,000  Hz (ultrasound)  or
                  below 20 Hz (infrasound) are usually
                  inaudible to humans.
                                                                 The Hearing Frequency Range of Humans and Animals

                  Essential Terms:

                      Frequency: The number of waves produced in one second.
                      Hertz: Unit of measurement for frequency.

                      Amplitude: Loudness or softness of a particular soundwave.
                      Pitch: How the ear and brain interpret the frequency of the sound. High frequency corresponds

                      to high pitch, and low frequency corresponds to low pitch.
                  More on Pitch

                      Pitch in music refers to the position of a sound within the range of sounds.

                      High-frequency vibrations result in high-pitched sounds (e.g., 880 Hz).
                      Low-frequency vibrations result in low-pitched sounds (e.g., 55 Hz).

                  Note: The general range of human hearing lies between 20 Hz and 20 kHz.
