After completing the penny organ, I have to select frequencies that sound musical. But what are those frequencies?

Just brilliant!
Your intuitive grasp of music theory is really impressive. Your mathematical analysis is even more so – it gets into the thought process behind different temperaments (tunings) that are based on choosing different compromises that you mention. Real nerdy stuff. I have to wonder if you knew a whole lot more about this stuff than you are letting on. The notes at the beginning:
220-A
330-E
440-A
550-C#
660-E
770-G
880-A
990-B
In any case, great job. This was fun to watch.
This is my Favorite Video.
There aren't really "strong relationships" between notes, but rather different notes sound pleasing to the ear like a 4th or a 5th while some don't like a 7th.
i love you so much 🙂 +1 sub
I think you must have a seriously high IQ, whatever that means haha
You went to Centre for Alternative Technology , Cool
This is the worst game of Simon I've ever seen.
Wow!!! The Arduino in the video gave me a little more confidence when starting the video, that I wouldn't be completely lost. This is the best music theory video for engineers. Thank you!
good video,
but please record your screen with something like OBS
This is exactly the algorithm I was trying to figure out! That said, it would be a big drain on resources to have my arduino do the calculations, so I used an array like you did.
you have the notes for ave Maria
…so it seems musicality is based around rational numbers… *immediately solves equation to an irrational number
void play(double midi, int duration)
{
tone(6, (8.168*pow(1.05955,midi)), duration);
} to convert midi to frequency in arduino
Math! I hate math! Why have I been an electronics technician for 45 years!!!??? Figure down to the last decimal place…..on your abacus!
What a well thought out and excellent video. Great fun to watch and helped me a great deal in my own project as a begginer. Thanks.
Well done, this is fascinating! I am your age and for a long time I've tried to wrap my mind around music theory vis a vis math. You've just blown my mind. In a very good way. Wow, but isn't C 440Hz? Thanks and cheers…
