[@thumper8684]

@@ultraclipz3230 Perfect musical intervals are based on harmonic ratios. That is what makes them sound pleasant. You go up an octave the frequency of the pitch is doubled. You go up a perfect fifth, the frequency is mulitplied by 3/2.
A fifth is not necessarily a perfect fifth, and in standard tuning it is a smidge off.

@@leonwaves woaww! How did you recognize the same chord by Simon? How are made your ear? Maybe you have absolute pitch to ear such big chord

[@leonwaves]

Gabriel Fauré Simon made a video in response to Jacob’s interview part 2. He just sang what Jacob was unable to sing completely. (Not sure if Simon sang every note or if he pitch shifted some.)
Yes, I do have absolute pitch, but it doesn’t have much to do with Jacob’s D7 chord, since June notated the notes and Simon sang them.

the nerve...

[@StarKnight70]

and how dare...

[@glitched2797]

Oki doki crash course in octaves:
Because of the way pitch works on a physical level (ie molecules vibrating at frequencies), we can basically sort out pitches into groups of eight (therefore octaves, like octopus or octagon ), meaning that if you played all the white notes on a piano, no matter which one you started on, every eighth note would be exactly the same note as every first note except it would sound higher.
If you simplified this concept even further; I could find a wood block and hit it, producing a sound. If I then cut that block exactly in half and hit it again (according to the physical laws of pitch), the sound it produces this time would be exactly the same sound but one octave higher.
Hope that helped :)
