Changes: A in C major

Revision as of 21:24, 18 February 2010

"That tone... what is that tone?"

A in C major (ラ音) is a musical note that is heard when players are temporarily drawn into The World or The World R:2, often coinciding with the appearance of an AI or other abnormality unrelated to normal gameplay. The tone usually goes unnoticed by those who hear it, though Mai Minase, an experienced musician, was able to identify it and, once conscious of it, avoided its effects, which seem to subliminally distract the player and blur the line between reality and The World.

Trivia

Though the term "A in C major" is used in the series to refer to this particular pitch, it is one that is not typically used, as it fails to refer to either its frequency (440 vibrations per second) or its placement in the musical scale (the fifth octave). Common ways to refer to the pitch are Middle A, Concert A, or A440.

-*Though the term "A in C major" is used in the series to refer to this particular pitch, it is one that is not typically used in labeling pitches in general, for the pitch itself can be in many other keys beside C Major. Out of the many ways to refer to this pitch, a more accurate and less technical term would be "A in the fifth octave."
