Wow, I gotta say, your explanations are spot-on and super interesting! Not only do you break things down in a clear and easy-to-understand way, but I can totally see that scientist vibe in you. It's like you've got that natural curiosity and analytical thinking that real scientists have. Your passion for the topic really shines through, and it's awesome to see someone who not only knows their stuff but can also explain it in a fun and engaging manner. Keep up the great work!
i love your math series about music i had a question in my mind and something just wasnt making any sense but you covered it very well now i know the reason why we devide by 2 for the second time is because its sometimes nesseceray to get the number in wanted range
Learning music theory-- okay, wait I'm confused. You called the second harmonic scale (3:2) a lydian mode. But, we constantly multiplied frequencies by 3/2, so how do we end up with semi-tones and tones? Is it that the 292.5 and 493.59 are the semitones? How can we be multiplying by a constant ratio but end up with notes differently spaced out from each other? Does anyone get what I mean? (I really struggle with music theory and I honestly think it's because no one was ever able to explain it like this. I've always wanted the /why/ it works, I feel like I'll understand it more if I can see its like, mathematical patterns and proof of why it works.)
Aye subscribing. I would love to know why we settled on the 7/12 tone scale divisions of the octave. I have a theory it's rooted in sacr d geometry as the flower of life depicted in most cultures is a 6 sided shape and the inverse of it creates another 6 points for a total of 12 and it's all rooted in our perception of this chaos. We arbitrarily affix definitions to the misunderstood and thereby give it definition. Love your videos!
Please enjoy my 17 tone Just tempered scale (all in a ratio over 128/256) Best in the key of C for the whole numbers and storing the note ratios as a single byte. But it sounds best to the ear tuned about 220 hz. A depending on the weather. 128 Hz. 256 145 Hz. 290 154 Hz. 308 160 Hz. 320 165 Hz. 330 171 Hz. 342 179 Hz. 358 183 Hz. 366 192 Hz. 384 201 Hz. 402 205 Hz. 410 213 Hz. 426 219 Hz. 438 224 Hz. 448 230 Hz. 460 238 Hz. 476 256 Hz. 512 If you really want the second’s Here you go, at 21 tones all over 512 for the ratios: 256 284 291 307 313 320 329 341 358 366 370 384 398 402 410 427 439 448 455 461 475 484 512 Here is the scale in Hexadecimal The first is the octave the second the tone at that ratio. 0100 256 011C 284 0123 291 0133 307 0139 313 0140 320 0149 329 0155 341 0166 358 016E 366 0172 370 0180 384 018E 398 0192 402 019A 410 01AB 427 01B7 439 01C0 448 01C7 455 01CD 461 01DB 475 01E4 484 0200 for the next octave.
I'm sorry, in the plethora of great information you may have already covered this, but in my RUclips patience (maybe just when I'm on RUclips patience), I came to see why WWHWWWH sounds good with the major scale. That is, why (mathematically) does taking a whole step on the third interval of the scale sound so bad and I'm forced to do a half step when the previous and following steps are whole steps?!

I would pay for a slower paced course going into all of this, fascinating

Wow; you not only explain this so well, but you make it incredibly interesting. Well done.
Great application of math to music!
An amazing series. Merci.
Darwin bless you, Tom Hanks! Great video
Thank you so very much for your time making this trilogy!
U get it my brother, keep making these videos so the masses too can understand
Well done. I don't know why you don't have many more subs/views
It's interesting how if you average 1.973 and 2.027, you get exactly "2"

I just learned tones are more complicated than I assumed all these years. Also got to video three...lol
These are phenomenal videos. Thank you so much. :)

9:36 is my favourite part
Christ I've been trying to find something that explains this stuff to me for years. Thank you so much for all the work you've put yourself through.
Good video. Someome (channel name: formant) apparently made a copycat video recently.
My man, you've done proper research on this topic. If you haven't already, I highly recommend getting a copy of On The Sensation Of Tone by Helmholtz.
Thanks man cuz I'm good at math, but bad at music, not sure they're mutually exclusive anymore haha

i’m curious about this too. I think it’s be covered but i want an answer to this direct question as well
Because how it relates to the percieved tonal center (the tonic)
2:30 no looping ;/
