Timbre

In music, it is called timbre to the sound characteristic that allows us to distinguish if sounds of the same frequency were produced by known sound sources and that allows us to differentiate them. When we hear a note played by a piano and the same note produced by a violin, we can immediately identify the two sounds as having the same frequency but with very different sound characteristics. What allows us to differentiate the two sounds is instrumental timbre. In a simplified way we can consider that the tone is like the sound fingerprint of an instrument or the quality of vocal vibration. Although the physical characteristics responsible for sound differentiation of instruments are well known, the way we listen to sounds also influences the perception of timbre. This is one of the objects of study of psychoacoustics. Em música, chama-se timbre à característica sonora que nos permite distinguir se sons da mesma frequência foram produzidos por fontes sonoras conhecidas e que nos permite diferenciá-las. Quando ouvimos uma nota tocada por um piano e a mesma nota produzida por um violino, podemos imediatamente identificar os dois sons como tendo a mesma frequência, mas com características sonoras muito distintas. O que nos permite diferenciar os dois sons é o timbre instrumental. De forma simplificada podemos considerar que o timbre é como a impressão digital sonora de um instrumento ou a qualidade de vibração vocal. Embora as características físicas responsáveis pela diferenciação sonora dos instrumentos sejam bem conhecidas, a forma como ouvimos os sons também influencia na percepção do timbre. Este é um dos objetos de estudo da psicoacústica.
