3 11mbre is the distinguishing quality of a sound. It is the dimension of auditory experience reÂ­. lated to the complexity of the sound wave-to the. relative breadth of the range of frequencies that. make up the wave. A pure tone consists of only one. frequency, but in nature, pure tones are extremely. rare.
There are two main properties of a regular vibration-the amplitude and the frequency-which affect the way it sounds. Amplitude is the size of the vibration, and this determines how loud the sound is. We have already seen that larger vibrations make a louder sound.Amplitude is important when balancing and controlling the loudness of sounds, such as with the volume control on your CD player.It is also the origin of the word amplifier, a device which increases the amplitude of a waveform. Frequency is the speed of the vibration, and this determines the pitch of the sound.It is only useful or meaningful for musical sounds, where there is a strongly regular waveform.t is also the origin of the word amplifier, a device which increases the amplitude of a waveform.
