Lower Limits of Pitch and Musical Pitch

Abstract
The lower limit of pitch perception in 9 selected listeners was 19 cps. With the same stimulus an attempt was also made to assess the lower limit of musical pitch, which seemed to be 60 cps. Perception is too weak to support octave perception in the range from 19 to 60 cps. A stimulus consisting of a train of uniform unipolar pulses is appropriate to the study of pitch.
