Unison
In
music, a unison is an
interval, the ratio of 1:1 or 0
half steps and zero
cents. Two tones in unison are considered to be the same
pitch, but are still perceivable as coming from separate sources. The unison is considered the most consonant interval while the near unison is considered the most dissonant. The unison is also the easiest interval to
tune.
