how do I change 440Hz to 528hz?

Just so you know, The Beatles recorded songs in 528hrz. Imagine - John Lennon for example. Interesting you shut down yourself when you say you see no reason to play or record in these. You should look up solfeggio tuning and get educated.

I think what you want to tune music to is 432hz, the 440hz concert pitch came about in 1939 and the "tune" is not harmonious with us or nature. You can google it and read about it, I wish it would catch on so it could be set as the standard pitch again.

there is a setting for that in preferences, but I have to say I'm a bit confused on what you're trying to achieve. Its not going to change the reference pitch of every instrument, and thats a really steep change, whatever it does change will be doing so using a pitch shifter which at that hz will sound very affected. I guarentee you not a single sample in Logic was recorded at that reference.

I have done research and found 440 HZ is not natural to the human body, 528 is. Is there a way to change the HZ in PRO 8?

There's a distinct possibility your sense of humor was too close (in tone) to recently posted questions regarding the use of Logic.

Nevertheless... it is appreciated.

My suggestion is not to play any A's above middle C. Thus only play your songs in F#, Db, Ab, etc. I'm sure this will be no problem.

Hi,

if you change your tuning from A=440Hz to A=444Hz (= up 1%), your C5 will be 528 Hz.

Just looked at http://www.phy.mtu.edu/~suits/notefreqs.html and saw that C5 is normally 523 Hz, so only 1% off...

I don't see a reason to change your A to 528 Hz, because that's more a "random" note than C. This is because the scale of C is a do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-si-do scale. There's a lot to be said about frequancies and relationships; an important thing to realize is that if you're looking for "clean" harmonic relations, you shouldn't be using equal temperament but old "just intonation". See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_intonation and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equal_temperament

For myself, I (Chapman) Stick to qual temperament and bring Psalms 92:3 to practise :-)

jaap,

Since the OP has closed the discussion....

I was at the NAMM show the year the Chapman Stick was released, got to see some cool demos by Emmett and a young kid who was an absolute virtuoso on the instrument.

loooong time ago... it hit the market around '75 :-)

That's right! I'm officially a geezer!

The kid that demonstrated the Stick was a killer musician.. he was playing Duke Ellington/Miles Davis and easily switched to classical and pop. Lot's of independence, solo line, inner part harmony and a bass line.

hmmm... maybe Steve Adelson?! He's the Jazz-Stick expert. And Bob Culbertson is a long time virtuoso, too. Both easy to find on Youtube :-)

Just had a look - I'd not come across that before, thanks for that.

You can mod the resonance of your body by wearing a tinfoil hat and eating large quantities of broccoli. (www.lovetinfoilhatsandbroccoli.com)

I was educated on this from a nice gentleman giving stress test in the park using an e-meter, not from an institute of "higher learning."

Hi! Pay no attention to these mediocrities who are uneducated on this subject--you have definitely found the holy grail of sound.

To answer your question, how to pitch music that was recorded in 440 to 444(528=c) is simple. I don't use Logic, but just change your master pitch, or the individual pitch on each music track +.156 cents.

That aside, people will realize eventually that A=444 is the magic stuff and unless you've tuned up to it and recorded tracks that way you'll just never understand how bad you sound in regular 440.

For the record all you "Standard Tuners" are tuning A=440 which was first introduced

by Joeseph Goebbels as standard pitch for the Nazi military. Should tell you something, if you're used to thinking for yourself.

If you are a good reader, I would suggest looking at this:

http://web.mac.com/len15/MUSICAL_CULT_CONTROL/Leonard_G._Horowitz.html

It's called "Musical Cult Control: The Rockefeller Foundation's War on Consciousness Through the Imposition of A=440 Standard Tuning."

Why would somebody write something like that? Time to wake up, peeps!

On the flip flop tuning to A=444 makes your "C" 528hz. 528hz is the same frequency scientists use to repair DNA. How's your DNA? Nazi-ish?

You ever notice when you tune a guitar perfectly to A=440 and it still never sounds that good? Sounds harsh? Kind of warbly? It's not your cheap guitar. It's your "standard" tuning.

Did you know John Lennon's Imagine was recorded in A=444? Or that's what Paul McCartney is playing in live these days? Hey, keep tuning to standard, those guys don't know anything.

You think Pink Floyd tuned to 440? Yeah right. Look that up sometime too.

For all serious artists and musicians it'd be worth searching Google for "528hz" and "Solfeggio Frequencies" as well, if you're interested in God sounds.

For all you other "know it all" master musicians, keep tuning to 440 and sounding like ****.

Peace

Doesn't matter what you tune to if you write, sing, play like cr@p.

In fact..... it doesn't matter at all what you tune to.

The Nazi's you say... I wonder why the U.S. officially adopted A440 in 1920 and were using it years before that.

Standard pitch has varied between A=435 and A=454 for centuries.

God sounds is Robert Johnson & Muddy Waters...

You sense of humor is better than the OP!
