The differences between high and low frequency lie mainly in the speeds and pitches of the sounds created. Low frequency sound waves ordinarily travel with a lower pitch (deeper sound) and at a slower speed, whereas sounds constructed of high frequency waves will (again, ordinarily) travel at higher speeds and will produce a sound with a higher pitch. Differences can also lie in the size of the waves produced, although, depending on the technique this trait can be overlooked. High frequency usually means a smaller attack radius but ultimately an attack with more destructive power when connecting with solid objects. High frequency waves can rip through dense objects and travel onward, whereas low frequency waves act more like a dense object in themselves and will push against other object. A simple way to remember this basic level of understanding is that higher frequency waves tend to act more like lightning, whereas low frequency take more wind-like properties.
