Sep 6, 2022 at 14:34 comment added Dimitri Fair enough, closing the question as offtopic in physics.SE is an answer in itself. :) Thanks to everyone who's answered!
Sep 6, 2022 at 14:23 comment added Carl Witthoft I’m voting to close this question because this is better suited to music.SE
Sep 6, 2022 at 14:22 comment added Carl Witthoft Timbre has a physical source as the answers point out: the combination of many overtones with different amplitudes and perhaps phases. How we sense it is perceptual
Sep 6, 2022 at 13:35 comment added Dimitri I was under the impression that the additional questions are just a further explanations of the central question. (I.e. answering "No" to question #4 would automatically answer the main question as timbre=perceptual)
