You can use Excel to produce sound
As most people know sound is a wave motion. The frequency of middle “C” is 440Hz, this means that at this frequency 440 revolutions are made per second. As one revolution mathematically is 2pi or (2 x (22/7)) then a time scale (x axis) can be built up using these two factors. The amplitude (y-axis) is found from the sin of the value on the x-axis.
An whole octave can be made up using the relationship f = 2^(n/12) x 440 Hz. on an Excel spreadsheet.
And by combining the appropriate notes a chord can be simulated.
So sound is made using Excel

440 is rarely “C” as the standard. However “A” is. The “A” below middle “C” is usually tuned to 440 Hz.
