Back in the late 1970s this topic was covered in Bike World (which later folded into the Bicycling Mag universe). John Allen is both a music instrument service person and an engineer, he wrote of truing by pitch.
At that time I was working for the best, back then, bike shop in the area and we would lace up circus clown wheels with an off center hub (think Ingo rear wheel). The range of tones with the changing spoke lengths was cool to play with. Andy
