Tim yes correct. If I walk into a room with somebody bowing the low string on a cello, which is 41Hz, I can tell where it is. If the first 2 octaves can’t be localised then how is this possible?
It’s the harmonic overtones providing the spatial clues and the preservation of these overtones is vitally important to the entire spectrum.
It would not be possible to locate a signal generator producing the same 41Hz . as a sine wave.
