所以你刚才听到的是一对谢泼德音，相距半个八度。

That is because Zimmer is taking advantage of an auditory illusion caused by something called a Shepard tone.

那是因为 Zimmer 正在利用一种叫做 Shepard 音调的东西引起的听觉错觉。

In the interview, Nolan confirms that a lot of the soundtrack was built around the effect of a Shepard tone.

在采访中，诺兰确认很多配乐都是围绕谢泼德音调的效果制作的。

And the Shepard tone's really interesting because it's the same note played in all the octaves at the same time.

谢泼德的音调真的很有趣，因为它是同时在所有八度音阶中演奏的同一个音符。

But remember that Shepard tones are all of the Cs at the same time, so there is no help from where you are on the keyboard.

但请记住，Shepard 音调同时是所有 C，因此您在键盘上的位置没有任何帮助。
