 Taiwanese (linguistics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
If the original tone number is 4 and the final consonant is not h (that is, it is p, t, or k), pronounce it as tone number 8.
If the original tone number is 8 and the final consonant is not h (that is, it is p, t, or k), pronounce it as tone number 4.
In the dialect spoken near the northern coast of Taiwan, there is no distinction between tones number 8 and number 4 – both are pronounced as if they follow the tone sandhi rules of tone number 4.

 Music's interval number names explained_page 1_@TheCipher.com
Just like letters are used as names in music theory with no regard for literal alpha-numeric one-to-one correspondence [remember; seven letters (only) for twelve tones], music theory’s numbers (as they stand today) are more like generic symbols, stripped of common meaning, that have been re-purposed and reused to provide a second set of tone names.
Because those numbers have nothing to do with the distances between tones they should not rightly have been called interval numbers, but they are.
The last tone, the octave of the first, can be numbered as either eight or one.

 Re: medieval fiddles -- all were carved from single block?
Pythagorean music theory only allows intervals to be ratios of whole numbers (e.g., a tone is 9:8).
A basic theorem of the system, in its simplest form, first proven by Archytas, is that you can't divide a tone exactly in half (or any other number).
It's worth mentioning that what Prosdocimus is complaining about is not so much how an equal five-fold division of the tone might sound, as the fact that in standard Pythagorean music theory you simply *can't* divide a tone (or any other superparticular interval) into any number of equal parts.

This will happen when we get a tone that is a power of two: this tone is the same as the starting tone, some number m of octaves up.
The octave of every tone (the tone with twice the frequency) must be in the scale, because that's the simplest, best-sounding ratio.
We'd like to be able to build the scale in such a way that, for any tone in the scale, its fifth (that is, 1.5 times its frequency) is also in the sequence.

 Patent 4630299: Digital circuit for decoding digitized, demodulated FM stereo signals
The number of poles in the filter is chosen so that the filter output is also usable to produce a digitized representation of the carrier tone for the left minus right stereo channel.
In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a digital filter having a special form to reduce the number of multiplications required is employed to produce a digitized representation of the 19 kHz pilot tone together with another sampled output representing the 19 kHz tone shifted by a phase angle of 90.degree..
In this particular case, the number M of poles of H(z) is 6 and the sampling rate is 228 kHz which is equal to 2M.times.19 kHz.

 12 Scientists
Twelve Scientists is a collection of twelve pieces, eleven of which were composed using twelve-tone (serial) composition techniques.
These twelve do not represent the composer's idea of the twelve "most important" scientists; that could only be accomplished using a much larger number of representatives, (probably dozens), or by using extremely rigorous qualifications to reduce the number of candidates to a much smaller number, (probably three).
The unity of the overall work and the differences of each constituent piece represent the large framework of science and the individuality of the scientists, each of whom was attempting to learn all he could about a small piece of the universe around us.

 Dolmetsch Online - Music Theory Online - Pitch, Temperament & Timbre
Sometimes called the mesotonic scale, the meantone (also written mean-tone) scale was particularly favoured by organists and explains why organ music from the period 1500 to the 19th century was written in a relatively small number of keys, those that this scale favoured.
Specific intervals are the interval class or number of semitones between scale degrees or collection members, and generic intervals are the number of scale steps between notes of a collection or scale.
For instance, the Greek major tone, represented by the ratio 9:8 could be married to the semitone, represented by the ratio 256:243 and a scale of five whole tones plus two semitones could be formed.

 The Physics of the Piano
Almost every musical tone, whether it is produced by a vibrating string, a vibrating column of air or any other vibrating system, consists of a fundamental tone and a number of the higher-pitched but generally fainter tones known as partial tones or over tones.
It is widely believed that the partial tones produced by all musical instruments are harmonic-that their frequencies are exact whole-number multiples of the frequency of a fundamental tone.
Synthetic tones that were built up of perfectly harmonic partials were described by the musicians and nonmusicians alike as lacking "warmth." Musicians generally use this term to suggest a certain quality of musical tone.

 Definition of Harmonic
In musical terms, harmonics are component pitches of a harmonic tone which sound at whole number multiples above, or "within", the named note being played on a musical instrument.
Non-whole number multiples are called partials or inharmonic

 Patent 5221923: Radio communication apparatus capable of generating a common call tone regardless of call numbers indicated by a call signal
This is because the tone serves as both the indication of arrival of any one of the call signals and the indication of the call number of the call signal received as the particular reception signal.
After generation of the common tone, a particular tone is generated to indicate the call number of the received signal in question.
The common tone has a sound pressure level which is higher than seventy-five decibels when the sound pressure level is measured at a position spaced from the paging receiver 11 by thirty centimeters.

 Patent 4087643: Time division multiplexed PABX communication switching system
Signals arriving at the master repeater on the TONE bus are forwarded on the communication receive line 22 in place of incoming signals (arriving on the communication send line 20), which are not forwarded because of the presence of the blocking pulses which accompany the tone highway signals.
TONE is then a positive pulse which appears in a time slot if SGATE is high at the start of that time slot (and TONE does not appear if SGATE is low at the start of the time slot).
During a dialing procedure, the assigned tone decoder-receiver 62 provides a one-way path, for the two-tone dial signals, from the associated dialing applique to the processor, the tone decoder-receiver also decoding the two-tone dial signals into digital signals compatible with the processor.

 tone.htm
Tone color is determined by the number, identity, and proportion of the overtones or partials present in the tone of an instrument.
So, in commenting on the beautiful tone color obtained from the Master Mandolin we have something more to go on than individual opinion, for the overtones produced compare favorably in number and proportion with those of the violin, trumpet, clarinet, French horn and any of the other orchestral instruments noted for their rich full tones.
The first five or six only are present and the fundamental is usually too great a percent of the total tone, with the result that the tone is dull and hollow, or thin and colorless.

 What if the Tone Scale Wasn't Linear?
Each plane or band of the tone scale is a decay scale showing the cycle of action which occurs as a result of taking its dichotomy and expanding it into a triangle using the postulated characteristics of the number 3.
Each plane of the tone scale -- which is a plane only because we are using a viewpoint creating it there -- has existence only due to a specific dichotomy which is the basis of that viewpoint.
The full tone scale is composed of sections, each of which operates in a specific "plane" of reality.

 Speculations on Marchetto of Padua's "Fifth-Tones", © 1997, 1998, 1999 by Joe Monzo
Remembering that the "whole tone" was already specified as 9:8, it becomes clear that Marchetto's emphasis on 8 and 9 in the previous discussion on even and odd divisions refers to the ratio numbers in the "whole tone".
It must be known that, according to all writers on music, the whole tone - or its nature - is said to consist in the proportion of the number nine to the number eight.
In the 8:9 ratio which constitutes the 'whole tone', the 8 represents the 'whole tone' which is measured off, and the 9 represents the whole length of string, which is the reference tone.
