- Logarithmic Perception and Encoding
- Audition and music — pitch is perceived on a log frequency scale; the octave (doubling) is the natural unit; equal temperament divides it into twelve log-equal steps.
This sourceShows pitch is perceived on a logarithmic frequency scale with the octave (2:1 doubling) as the natural unit and twelve-tone equal temperament dividing the octave into twelve logarithmically equal semitones (ratio 2^(1/12)).
