[Music Theory in 5m #2] Harmonics and overtones, the basis of sound design (VOSTFR)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 бер 2018
- This is the second video of a series that tries to explain music theory. How our music was built, why and how we use the tools that we use to write music.
Today's topic is harmonics and overtones (harmonic and inharmonic) which are at the basis of sound design

The website I use to create a square and a sawtooth wave from harmonics is meettechniek.info/additional/...
The icons of snare and cymbal was made by Korokoro and artworkbean (taken from Noun project)

it's absolutely crazy to think that there's this little views on such a well made video. keep up the good work
@@Woochia You're very welcome. I've been watching this series one video a day while taking notes and I like alternative approach you have.
This man is an example of actually understanding music. The ability to explain things both simply and very in depth is extraordinary. Thank you so much for every video/lesson you've made!
Your fast explanations are the only thing I could focus on for long enough. You are doing what others are not and I appreciate that
your presentation on these topics is superb. the whole playlist is so well made
This class is of huge quality. Like too good to be free access.
never stop making vids man, im bout to marathon all of them. love the format
This video is a brilliant explanation of harmonics and overtones. Editing on point, explanation easy enough to understand, nice.
Oh my word....definitely subscribed. It is just amazing to me that you would share such a well structured and carefully thought through information with us. Just amazing! This is the type of information you would expect to pay for. Dam...I hope to be this cool one day!
Just went into one of your videos for the first time. Great vids and tutorials mate. Keep it up!
Just got into music... and you're going to be my full time music tutor... Your videos are very helpful and clear. you're saving me a lot of money. good luck. I'm very thankful.
That means a lot. I hope you find everything you need, and don't hesitate to say if you need other subjects to be tackled. Happy music making :)
The best video I've seen! Thanks!
These are great. I love his accent, but I'm thankful for the subtitles and infographics, because sometimes he mispronounces things in English. It's helpful to be able to double-check when he says "fifth" and the graphic says, "sixth." Canadians probably love it, too. LoL Thanks! :)
Absolutely amazing video! None other videosgo into the topic so eloquently and with so much depth, thank you!
Excellent video! Very well made visually and it's so concise and straightforward, this is the way.
Such a great and informative video for a curious mind! Thank you!
Merci for this. I'm hooked.
Thanks for your explanations, very helpful!
this is super helpful , thank you so much for sharing it !
Excellent boulot :) Merci pour toutes ces infos !
Sorry for my english
SIR I want to say thank you
You don't know how much you helping us by makeing these videos
We don't come from a rich family to learn music in music school's (we can't afford that)
But we love music so we wanted to make it
We wanted to know how it's works
and videos like these is give us so much confidence that yes without going to music school we can learn about music we can make good music
You teach us so much in depth that how and why it work like these
So once again I say thank you SIR
Thank you so much for your comment! This warms my heart to know it can make music theory reachable for more people.
❤❤sir
i thought i was big shit learning color theory at age 19, now im jumping into music and sound theory and i feel like a little kid learning to ride a bike, but all i really have to say is thank you for posting your wealth of knowledge here for me to use as my starting guide to more knowledge
It's my pleasure :)
Thank you ❤️
Your "Sound Design" series is excellent. I'm curious of what Spectrum Analyzer do you use? For example the one used for the harmonic comparison in this video minute 3:06? Keep up the good work!
that's exactly what i needed
BRO THANK U
So good
best video ever!!!!
Haha thank you! 😄
this is lit man
Thanks a lot for your video. Can u please tell me what is the name of the software or the plugin used in your video from 2:09 to 2:26 (I want to try it please)...
Studying control systems in mech e and it made no fck sense until watching this thx
Hi sir
How all the harmonics are produced by the vocal folds at the same time
Means How multiple frequencies simultaneously in voice are possible ???
What daw do you use?
Wait... the 7th had no matching overtones? WHAT DOES THIS MEAN!?!?
If you compared the harmonic series of two notes that are a 7th apart, the frequencies wouldn't match
As a n00b, I can see that it is good material but it isn't material for noobs. Talking about things like scales, and "a 2nd, a 5th, a 4rth", etc.
That doesn't mean anything to me.
A 2nd what? Piece of cake? Spliff? Note?
No clue.
I know an octave. I count 12 keys on my keyboard for an octave. Yet someone told me it's actually 13. Oh and somewhere a central C should be. What's that? Like F and J on my US 101 keyboard?
Again, no clue.
Also, whichever "music theory" tutorial I go for? None of them seem to go through those basics. Which means it makes no sense to me. And I quit. Then after a while I come across a video that discusses such a basic thing and then I go back to a tutorial again, hoping to get along further only to run into the next indecipherable thing rather quickly.
This makes the learning proces really... Long. Incomplete. Full of frustration.
To top it off, people in the tutorials really just *race* over all the (incomplete) stuff they do present.
My conclusion after many attempts is starting to be that I will not be able to master any music theory via UA-cam. Just frustration.
Yet, I can see that the material you present will be of use if only those basics were in place. Getting that basis though.... Pffffffffff.... 😢
I would try a few things. I'm currently in the same boat but probably further along the process. Just keep consuming content and actually learning an instrument is the best advice I can give. Keep searching and talk to music theory people. If you can take lessons from someone while learning an instrument, many of them can help teach you more music theory and fill in the holes you're struggling with. Also, I would highly recommend some of the free music theory courses on Coursera or some other learning site. Take notes and read and play everything you can. Eventually, it will all make sense.
Oh man, I get the frustration. What you are looking for should explained from the 4th episode and onward (from le video about scales).
If you have questions, don't hesitate to ask them in the comments.
For now here are the answers to the questions you already asked:
- In an octave, there are 12 notes, as you counted them on your keyboard :
C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, G#, A, A# and B.
The note above B is C again, so that's the start of the next octave.
- a scale, or a tonality, is a selection of notes that go well together. The most common scales have 7 notes in them (so out of the 12 notes per octave, some notes will the used in our scale and others will be left out).
For example, if you look at your keyboard, the white keys are the notes that belong to the C major scale (C, D, E, F, G, A and B).
The black keys are the notes that are not in the C major scale (C#, D#, F#, G# and A#).
- in the context of a scale, we call the first note the Tonic (= note that gives its name to the Tonality).
Then the second note is the 2nd, the third note is the 3rd, etc...
So in C major scale, the C is the Tonic, D is the second, E is the 3rd, F is the 4th, etc. Up to B which is the 7th, and above that, the C is the 8ve (that's why we call it an octave)
- when we talk about the middle Cvon a keyboard, we usually talk about C4 (the C of the 4th octave, which is roughly in the middle of a piano keyboard).
I hope this helps clear some things up. If you have other questions, don't hesitate to shout out. Good luck with the music theory!
I dont understand pretty much anything:/
Every harmonic overtone that is not an octave from the fundamental, is not perfectly in tune, even the 3rd harmonic is not perfectly in tune.
True ... if you're considering equal temperament. Which is the topic of the next video ;)
