Signals have shapes – waveforms
Water waves – height Audio – sound pressure
Audio – electrical voltage
Electrical waveforms are variations in voltage
AC mains has a waveform but is not a signal.

Lets look at the waveforms
We start with the input Audio Frequency
Many of the waveforms are sine waves
Later we will look at why
![Page 9: Sound test](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/5681598b550346895dc6cfcb/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Why Sine waves are important
They are natural
They are as fundamental as the circle
All other waveforms can be broken down into sine waves (More on this later)

Fundamentals and Harmonics
In general fundamental frequencies are sine waves.
Any waveform can be broken down into a fundamental sine wave and its harmonics.
Harmonics are 2,3,4 etc (i.e. integer) times the fundamental frequency.
A square wave can be shown to consist of a fundamental (of the same frequency) plus only odd harmonics.
![Page 16: Sound test](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/5681598b550346895dc6cfcb/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The harmonic content of a square wave
A square wave has a 3rd harmonic of amplitude 1/3 plus a fifth of amplitude 1/5 etc.
If it is a perfect square wave these go on forever.
(Being a symmetrical waveform it has no even harmonics)
We will add the harmonics one at a time and inspect them.

Linear and non linear systems
We have seen that waveforms can be broken down and rebuilt by adding sine waves.
This only works well for linear systems (i.e. if you can trust addition.)
For example if in your system doubling the input signal doesn’t double the output signal you have a non-linear system.
![Page 25: Sound test](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/5681598b550346895dc6cfcb/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Non linear systems
In a linear system when you apply a sine wave of frequency F you just get a sine wave of frequency F out.
In a nonlinear system you also get some harmonics at frequencies 2F, 3F etc. (only odd ones if its symmetrical)
E.g. if you seriously overdrive an amplifier with a sine wave you will get something like a square wave.
![Page 26: Sound test](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/5681598b550346895dc6cfcb/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Non linear systems
In a linear system when you apply two sine waves of frequency F and G you just get frequencies F and G
In a nonlinear system you also get sine waves at frequencies F+G and F-G.
(You also get all the harmonics and all the sums and differences of the harmonics)
![Page 27: Sound test](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/5681598b550346895dc6cfcb/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The ideal mixer
Another day we will look at the electronics of mixers.
An ideal mixer multiplies rather than adds waveforms.
If you feed two sine waves at frequencies F and G into a multiplier you just get sine waves at frequencies F+G and F-G and no harmonics.
Rather than prove this using maths this lets look and listen.

Some maths
Did you notice the output waveforms were 90 degree phase shifted sine waves of half the amplitude?
For many purposes this makes no difference
Sin(f)* Sin(g) = Cos(f-g)/2 – Cos(f+g)/2
My last graphs allow for the phase shift. A mathematician would call them cosines but they are still sine waves.
