Primes¶
- Harmonic Distortion
- In audio and amplifier engineering it is canonical and quantified: a nonlinear gain stage adds harmonics to every tone, measured as total harmonic distortion (THD), and a clipped or saturated amplifier generates a rich harmonic series that colors the sound — guitar overdrive deliberately exploits it, while hi-fi design fights to minimize it;
This sourceTreats total harmonic distortion (THD), clipping, crossover distortion, and the deliberate-versus-minimized use of amplifier nonlinearity in audio.
