Harmonic

In music, a harmonic refers to a specific sound created when a musical instrument or voice produces a tone along with its higher, related pitches called overtones or overtones. These overtones are integer multiples of the fundamental pitch and give each sound its unique quality or "timbre." In a broader context, harmonics involve the study of these overtones and how they interact to influence the sound's richness and character. Essentially, harmonics are the building blocks of complex sounds, shaping how we perceive different instruments and voices.
