Pitch<br />
Pitch is controlled by changes in the tension <strong>of</strong> the vocal folds, both<br />
longitudinally (along the folds) and medially (between the folds).<br />
<strong>The</strong> pitch <strong>of</strong> a sound corresponds to its fundamental frequency (F0),<br />
but the two are distinct. Pitch is <strong>of</strong>ten perceived as the difference in<br />
frequency between successive harmonics <strong>of</strong> the F0.<br />
<strong>The</strong> pitch range is humans varies. For men, it is usually between<br />
75-250 Hz. For women, it is usually between 120-350 Hz.<br />
