  • A sound or note of definite pitch is one where a listener can possible or relatively easily discern the pitch. Sounds with definite pitch have harmonic frequency spectra or close to harmonic spectra.

    A sound or note of indefinite pitch is one that a listener finds impossible or relatively difficult to identify as to pitch. Sounds with indefinite pitch do not have harmonic spectra or have altered harmonic spectra a characteristic known as inharmonicity.
