     The previous post asked whether a pure sine wave Bb sounds different
from a pure sine wave A.  David Burge, the perfect pitch teacher, claims
that the tone "colors" are apparent even with pure sine waves, and that
perfect pitch is completely independent of timbre.  My own ear has not
progressed to the stage of being able to express an opinion as to whether
this is true or not.
