 Why zero is important _@TheCipher.com
Zero is a universal law of the fretboard.
Zero has existed on the guitar fretboard, though quietly, for as long as the guitar itself has existed (see Figure 2), and guitarists have always, though unconsciously, relied on the fretboard’s affinity for half-steps and zero.
Like zero, the Five Degree Calculation Line is a natural part of the fretboard (when conventionally tuned), but it’s even less visible than zero was — and it also needs zero to work right.

 Patent 5017918: Method and circuit for eliminating major bit transition error at the bipolar zero point in a ...
The digital-to-analog converter of claim 1 wherein M is equal to 9 and N is equal to 9, and wherein the certain input of the adder is the LSB bit input of the adder.
It is very inconvenient to have this error occur at the points labeled "A", which is the bipolar zero (BPZ) point of the digital-to-analog converter, because the error is a very large percentage of the smallest audio signals, which occur around bipolar zero.
Accordingly, it is an object of the invention to provide a circuit and technique which avoids the shortcomings of major bit shifting techniques for reducing zero point noise in a digital-to-analog converter.
