PLAYBACK AT 432HZ

<< < (2/3) > >>

HERCULES1X:
A detuned instrument has been wrongly tuned to 440Hz. The correct tuning is 432Hz, which was and has always been the correct frequency.

Sadly 440Hz causes discourse within the music and because all music has been tuned to it, people have become used to hearing this discourse and can not discern it, because they are accustomed to it.

When they start listening to music in the correct 432Hz they report a harmony that comes with it. Instruments blend together better and the vocalist will report a better ability to sing with the music without having to strain to keep with the "out of tune" music.

Those who deal with CLASSICAL MUSIC have known of this for years and make sure music is correctly tuned to the particular theatre/opera house/auditorium the music is played in as those with musical expertise can tell the disharmony that will ensue.

The off comment I received about this tuning being "bullshit" or that I am looking/listening/reading about EARTH FREQUENCIES came from someone who sadly does not understand music/frequencies/harmonies/vocals and the science behind how they must all be tuned to work compatibly together.

This is a pretty significant misconception.  There is no "correct" frequency, the choice is arbitrary, and standard for pitch were selected to allow sheet music to be played similarly by different instruments and performers.

Tuning isn't bullshit, but whatever you were reading is.  If you just go and adjust the pitch of everything by 1.8%, you're not going to achieve what you are hoping.

For anyone wanting some background on this here is an article with comments which seems to cover the ground (something which the OP should have provided)

Bilgus:
Interesting article, thanks I was unaware people though 432 Hz was special.

That being said I'm not sure why the OP should have provided it
he has no requirement to convince anyone else as it is his belief
and that runs counter to his belief as well lol.

gomezz:
If the OP is asking for a new feature then surely it helps their case to provide some justification?
