How to compute fundamental frequency from a list of overtones? Given a list of overtones (F1, F2, F3, etc), how do I compute the fundamental frequency? Can I do something like F2/F1=F1/F0? Is it the correct method to use?
Nope. Difference between overtones is a good point to start, i,e F3-F2, F2-F1. The differences should be all the same or multiple of each other. The smallest one is often the fundamental. It gets more tricky of the spectrum is "sparse", i.e. a lot of the harmonics are missing. Then you need to find a largest possible divisor that turns all frequencies into integers or, to be precise, so that the ratio of frequency to fundamental is within the measurement accuracy of the nearest integer.
