Playing music using Matlab
In this problem you are asked to play (generate) the main melody of the song "Smoke On The Water" by Deep Purple using Matlab.
You have to play the song at its original tempo (112 BPM) first, and than at double that tempo.
The melody transcription is here. In case you haven't listened to the song before, you can find it on Youtube.
After that, you are asked to read off the song at double the speed, i.e. if $ x(t) $ is your song then you will be playing $ x(2t) $.
Compare what you hear in the latter play to what you hear when you have double the tempo of the melody. Explain.
