Hello,

My question is simple:

When I take the FFT of the signal consisting of three subsequent sinusoidal tones should I get the same resulting spectrum as when I take spectra of each tone separately and sum them up?

My script below suggest that this might not be true. Why?

With regards, Micholeodon
