Tonality

F minor is a minor scale based on F, consisting of the pitches F, G, A♭, B♭, C, D♭, and E♭. Its key signature consists of four flats. Its relative major is A-flat major and its parallel major is F major. Its enharmonic equivalent, E-sharp minor, has eight sharps, including the double sharp F , which makes it impractical to use.

Music in F minor [ edit ]

Famous pieces in the key of F minor include Beethoven's Appassionata Sonata, Chopin's Piano Concerto No. 2, Ballade No. 4, Haydn's Symphony No. 49, La Passione and Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 4. Glenn Gould once said if he could be any key, he would be F minor, because "it's rather dour, halfway between complex and stable, between upright and lascivious, between gray and highly tinted... There is a certain obliqueness."[1] Hermann von Helmholtz once described F minor as harrowing and melancholy. Christian Schubart described this key as "Deep depression, funereal lament, groans of misery and longing for the grave".[2]

E-sharp minor [ edit ]

E-sharp minor is a theoretical key based on the musical note E♯, consisting of the pitches E♯, F , G♯, A♯, B♯, C♯ and D♯. Its key signature has six sharps and one double sharp, (or eight sharps). Its relative major is G-sharp major, which is usually replaced by A-flat major. Its parallel major, E-sharp major, is usually replaced by F major, as E-sharp major’s four double-sharps make it impractical to use.

(E-sharp minor is the mediant minor key of C-sharp major.)

What are the 4 polar patterns?

There are six main polar patterns: omnidirectional, cardioid, supercardioid, hypercardioid, ultra directional and figure of 8. Most microphones are designed with a specific pattern and are therefore best-suited for specific applications.

soundtech.co.uk - Microphone Polar Patterns – Part 1: Omnidirectional

There’s a lot in this world that confuses people. Algebra, insurance policies, Stephen Hawking’s theories, to name a few. In the music world, microphone polar patterns seem to cause a bit of head-scratching. Of course, polar patterns aren’t as confusing as, say, the nutritional information on a food label, but they confound plenty of people. So to clear the air, let’s take a look at the different polar patterns and the benefits of each. “Polar pattern” refers to a microphone’s directionality or pickup pattern – the three-dimensional space surrounding the capsule where it is most sensitive to sound. There are six main polar patterns: omnidirectional, cardioid, supercardioid, hypercardioid, ultra directional and figure of 8. Most microphones are designed with a specific pattern and are therefore best-suited for specific applications. Other microphones offer selectable polar patterns. For example, the AKG C314 professional multi-pattern condenser microphone offers all four patterns to allow artists to fine-tune the sound and adapt to different situations.
