Very basic : Multiply/divide a frequency by 2, get an octave up/down. Add/substract at the hertz level to tune/detune a sound. Show how notes don't have an equal size in a scale (without talking about 12th root). It's also a good time to introduce equal temperament and the damage done :). Add two or more sines to create a beating. (see A08.beating.pd) Also get a acoustic instrument with you to prove it's not about computer magic. With a guitar you can show the different fret spaces and detune the instrument to produce nice beatings. good luck with the new generation :) -- Charlot _______________________________________________ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
