Convert cents to decibel (amplitude)s
How to convert cents to decibel (amplitude)s
Convert through a plain ratio: cent → ratio → decibel (amplitude). Logarithmic units cannot be converted by multiplying alone.
Cent: A hundredth of a semitone. Around 5 cents is the smallest pitch difference most people hear.
Decibel (amplitude): For voltage, pressure and other field quantities. 6 dB is roughly double the amplitude — and the same fourfold change in power.
