In the conventional view, there are two aspects or phases of a wave considered merely as Positive and negative polar phases. These may be modified as to power, envelope, attack, suspension (sustain) and decay elements as the waveform becomes more complex. We also know complex waveforms are composite constructs of numerous aliquot parts of partials, harmonics and overtones of the fundamental. These aliquot parts include secondary and tertiary (or more) summation and difference tones resulting in a complex waveform. When given an unknown complex wave form its individual aliquot parts (discrete notes or frequencies) can be deciphered using Fourier Transforms and similar mathematical tools.
