(1961),Subdivision of the audible frequency range into critical bands" ''The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America'', Volume 33, Issue 2, p. 248 (1961) One definition of the term is "...a frequency scale on which equal distances correspond with perceptually equal distances. Above about 500 Hz this scale is more or less equal to a logarithmic frequency axis. Below 500 Hz the Bark scale becomes more and more linear."

Bark scale critical bands Since the direct measurements of the critical bands are subject to error, the values in this tab ...
