The higher the frequency, the higher the pitch and vice versa.
A pitch occurs whenever something is vibrating / oscillating at a frequency, in this case it's your speaker.
The unit **Hz** describes how many times that oscillation happens per second.
Our eyes are too slow to actually see the oscillation on the speaker, but we can [see it in slow motion](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CDMBWw7OuJQ&t=5s).

## Frequency vs Pitch Perception
Maybe you have already noticed that the <span style="color:#3b82f6;">frequency slider</span> is "lopsided",
meaning the pitch changes more in the left region and less in the right region.

To make that more obvious, let's add a <span style="color:#eab308">pitch slider</span>

Of course, this can be written shorter with note, as we will see below.

The yellow number is now a MIDI number, covering more than the whole human hearing range with numbers from 0 to 127.
In Strudel, we can use MIDI numbers inside `note`:
<MiniRepl client:visible tune={`note("69 73 76 81").piano()`} />
