Is relative pitch specific to pitch?
Melodies, speech, and other stimuli that vary in pitch are processed largely in terms of the relative pitch differences between sounds. Relative representations permit recognition of pitch patterns despite variations in overall pitch level between instruments or speakers. A key component of relative pitch is the sequence of pitch increases and decreases from note to note, known as the melodic c...
متن کاملElectrophysiological correlates of absolute pitch and relative pitch.
The temporal and spatial characteristics of the cortical processes responsible for absolute pitch (AP) and relative pitch (RP) were investigated by multi-channel event-related potentials (ERPs). Compared to listening, pitch-naming of tones in non-possessors of AP elicited three ERP components (P3b, parietal positive slow wave, frontal negative slow wave) over parietal and frontal scalp between ...
متن کاملPitch Range is not Pitch Range
This paper presents a phonetic analysis of pitch range as perceived and measured on utterance and syllable level. A previous analysis of read speech showed that German speakers produced a larger pitch-range on utterance level, whereas Swiss German speakers produced a larger pitch-range on syllable level. This analysis was based on the production of broadcasters reading news messages and a fairy...
متن کاملEthnicity effects in relative pitch.
Absolute pitch (AP), the rare ability to identify a musical pitch, occurs at a higher rate among East Asian musicians. This has stimulated considerable research on the comparative contributions of genetic and environmental factors. Two studies examined whether a similar ethnicity effect is found for relative pitch (RP), identifying the distance or interval between two tones. Nonmusicians (n = 1...
متن کاملRelative-pitch tracking of multiple arbitrary sounds.
Perceived-pitch tracking of potentially aperiodic sounds, as well as pitch tracking of multiple simultaneous sources, is shown to be feasible using a probabilistic methodology. The use of a shift-invariant representation in the constant-Q domain allows the modeling of perceived pitch changes as vertical shifts of spectra. This enables the tracking of these changes in sounds with an arbitrary sp...
