@mahgister , WELCOME BACK! I won't ask where you have been, curiosity can be fatal.
This is not a problem of math. Math is a way of describing the problem. I believe it is a problem of conception not a problem in and of itself. It is reality and the proper use of electrons, physics and acoustics by people who can conceive of these issues. The beautiful thing about humans is we all have different talents. My understanding of math is very limited, but I can design in my head what people think is beautiful furnisher.
Enjoy the Music and forget about the questions. Curiosity is fatal.
