asked on

sine/sound wave patterns of music instruments - is there any one that gives a regular sine wave?

Hi,

I would like to know if there is any musical instrument that gives a regular sine wave pattern as it's sound wave.

Violins for instance give saw-teeth like patterns, clarinets give square wave functions.

Possibly a flute or an organ can produce near-sine output on some notes, but I'd be really surprised if you'd find an instrument that does that consistently.
