" made up of sine waves "

Chris, Tre', Timbo, Eli, et al... From what I recall from Physics 101 (many moons ago), music or speech or anything complex & periodic in nature can be described by folding or mathmatically summing up a series of simple sine waves. The more approximations you do (summing up more sine waves that, when added, the closer you get to the describing the actual Natural periodic event. You can never get 100% precision, even with say, a regression formula of infinite trials.

Sound or music is not "made-up" of sine waves. But, are described or approximated by a series of unique wave function formulas. It is the way one can get a handle on this extremely complex phenomenom. Describe it in a formula--- so that the music can be reproduced--- in a somewhat faithful manner (at least as precise, as the least accurate component wave).

Sorry, about all the yaddy-yaddy-yaddy.
