A harmonic of a wave is a component frequency of the signal that is an integer multiple of the fundamental frequency. If the fundamental frequency is f, the harmonics have frequencies f, 2f, 3f, 4f, etc. Even harmonics are 2f, 4f, 6f, ... Odd harmonics are f, 3f, 5f, ... And remember: Even harmonics 2f, 4f, 6f,... are odd overtones. Odd harmonics f, 3f, 5f,... are even overtones. Scroll down to related links and look at "Calculations of harmonics from fundamental frequency".
