that's sorta a self-contradiction.
�
"pitch" is a perceptual attribute of a tone or sound.
"fundamental frequency" is a physical
attribute.
�
"loudness" is a perceptual attribute.
"amplitude" is a physical attribute.
�
"brightness" is a perceptual attribute.
"spectral centroid" (however it's mathematically defined) is a physical
attribute.
�
again, Evan, what i would like to hear from you is, given your offered 
algorithm for spectral centroid, if you play, say a piano into it, one note at 
a time, does C# have a 6% greater spectral centroid or 12% higher than C? �or 
less than
6%?
�
also, Evan, i would be very interested in hearing (or reading) what you might 
be willing to tell us about pitch detection or pitch tracking. �i realize you 
may be keeping this trade secret, but to the extent that you're willing to 
openly discuss even principles, if not
algorithms, i would pay close attention. �(and i am not terribly stingy about 
knowledge assets.)
