partial tone
In music and acoustics, a partial tone is one of the pure tones that make up a complex tone when considered separately. They are either the fundamental tone (the lowest frequency) or one of the overtones (frequencies higher than the fundamental), and contribute to the overall timbre or quality of the sound. Each partial tone has its own distinct frequency and amplitude. Also known as harmonic or spectral tones, they are often used in the analysis and synthesis of sound.
