apart from affecting the density of matter, does gravity affect sound?

Are sound waves pulled down? Also as a bonus question, does gravity affect anything other that matter?

Just pointing out that density isn’t directly dependant on gravity, it’s simply mass (amount of material)/volume: the density of water is the same here and in the moon. Liquid water always (more or less) has a density of ~1 kg/L: every 1 liter of water contains a mass of 1 kg.

Weight, on the other hand, is the force that acts upon an object under gravity.
