Strike tone is the tone you use to excite partials when Ghosting.
Sometimes makes it easier to isolate a particular partial pair for a given
interval. For example you want to sort out the 3:2 of a 5th in the lower
bass... you can hold down the two notes comprising the 5th and loudly
(once quickly should be enough) bang on the note corresponding to that
coincident partial pair, or any other note that also has that partial for
that matter... tho the actual corresponding note most often works the best
for simple ghosting.

Example... interval C3,G3 ... strike note G4.
