If you are saying distortion is heard as higher harmonics of the note that is being played and clipped, I'll buy that. I don't know enough to dispute it and we will assume you know what you are talking about.But can't you play a square wave (not a sine wave clipped into being a square) at the same freq as a sine wave and they will sound different? This should very closely approximate a clipped sine wave minus the distortion. Same volume and pitch but different timbre.If you have a synthesizer handy you can perform this experiment yourself.</blockquote>
