Every sound is SINE

...Or is it?

Music:

1st synthesizer: Sytrus (in FL Studio)
2nd synthesizer: Harmor (in FL Studio)

Thanks to DaoWaves for the tutorial on sine wave speech using 'Spraak' :

Speaker in the video (and thumbnail): Tannoy Sensys DC1. Used a long time for reference, not anymore.

Most visualizations were also done with FL Studio's 'Wave Candy' (screen capture).

Every sound is made from an infinite number of sine waves.

You could say that we all speak sine language.

6:47 the way the bells could be rounded off into individual bell strikes literally sounded like magic

[MrSharkYT]

I always knew as a fact that sound is made up of waves and vibrations, that's what we're taught... but this has given me the understanding like absolutely nothing else, easily becomes one of my favorite videos of all time, Mind blown.

[BunkerSquirrel]

As someone who spent years suffering through wave theory, Laplace transforms, and Fourier series I greatly appreciate this video

5:42
the 3 sine waves talking hit me like a semitruck

[GraveUypo]

this is one of the best videos on audio i've ever watched. it's the first one that actually follows the golden rule of "show, don't tell", and that makes all the difference. damn your channel is a gold mine.

6:37 this part is actually banging like holy shit

[crokobos]

This was my "im not clicking this" of my reccomended. But I didnt notice YOU uploaded it! Time to watch

At 7:12 you say that what ultimately hits our eardrums is a single sound wave. This is true, but the next step, which I think is fascinating, is that your inner ear splits the sound wave back into its component frequencies, and the amount of each frequency is what gets sent to the brain.

This is the perfect kind of video introduction to physics/sound, it should be played at schools. It gets you interested in the subject, giving motivation to research further and learn more on the topic.

The car alarm at the end is hilarious.

[shkemed]

This had to have been the coolest but most trippy video I’ve ever watched, oddly satisfying

[enterthekraken]

I'm kind of impressed that you can approach topics like FFTs without even mentioning FFTs!

[Kamel]

This video was... not quite educational, not quite entertainment, not quite an acid trip, and perfect in every way.

[adamn]

This video quality is something I expect from a channel with at least half a million subs, not 30k. I’ve subscribed and look forward to seeing more!

New fear unlocked: vocals with 3 sinewaves

[LyricWulf]

"Every sound is made from an infinite number of sine waves" might be more clearly expressed as "Every sound can be *represented* by (the sum of) an infinite number of sine waves". Even though the first statement is correct I think it's an important distinction that it is not the same as how (for example) any object is made of atoms, since sound waves are generally non-discreet and we are talking about a mathematical representation (eg. fourier/decomposition). Great video!

[aumusic]

OK but seriously how did you resynthesize speech with 3 sines at 5:45?

[MilezAwxy]

4:17 lmao, this is how educational videos are supposed to be. Funny, informative, short.

the first time i watched this video i was stoned asf, and i barely remember anything, but his voice still stuck in my head. this guy has the softest voice ever
