It is played with a stick that can strike the string at different positions, producing subtle variations in theharmonicseriescontent.

In figure 4, the weighting of theharmonicseriesversus the relative pitch is represented, and the sum of the weights is normalised.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Due to the nature of the metallic sounds, the spectral components are generally unrelated to theharmonicseries.
From theCambridge English Corpus
This emits the intervals of just intonation, of the naturalharmonicseries, often described as heavenly, harmonic and consonant in other musical practices.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Every time lower harmonics occur in the larger cycle, they are accompanied by their ownharmonicseries.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The same is true for all harmonics in the cycle low enough to produce audibleharmonicseriesof their own.
From theCambridge English Corpus

From theCambridge English Corpus
Harmonicseriestend to be very mutable, as do noise models based on a specified time-varying spectral envelope.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Players had to temper the wayward intonation of the naturalharmonicseriesand to sharpen their techniques to meet the demands of composers and discriminating listeners.
From theCambridge English Corpus
In this case, regular textures correspond to sounds with harmonically related frequency partials, whereas the increasing deviation from theharmonicseriesis associated with textures increasing in their irregularity.
From theCambridge English Corpus
This lengthens the vibrating air column thus lowering the fundamental tone and associatedharmonicseriesproduced by the instrument.
