How does perfect pitch work?
In: Other
Perfect pitch is misleading, as it isn’t really more precise. Absolute pitch would be better.
When you don’t have absolute pitch, you hear the differences between two notes, but you cannot hear the pitch as such. One sound has no pitch alone, you need to compare it with another sound to hear if its pitch is higher, lower, or the same.
With absolute pitch, you hear the pitch of sounds as such. It’s actually the simpler one of the two. Sounds have pitch that you can hear and that’s it.
