    432 sounds more harmonious and softer, 440 sounds harsher

    • @efmusic04
      @efmusic04 2 года назад +2

      Wow it's almost if lower tuning produces a softer sound. You could literally pick any higher and then any lower tuning and you'll have the same effect. 432 is completely arbitrary.

    • @efmusic04
      @efmusic04 2 года назад

      Also it's not more harmonious as we work on a 12 tone equal tempered system, therefore all harmony in terms of intervals sounds comparatively identical no matter what tuning we use.

    Wow! Big difference. I play classical music and sing arias. When listening to 440Hz, I enjoyed it with my mind, could hear individual notes. But not expecting that listening to 432Hz, the mind got quiet and there was a feeling of peacefulness, oneness, the musical piece became one entity and the notes were part of that one entity, moving and swaying together back and forth. There was definitely deeper sense of connection. I will be tuning my piano to 432Hz! Thank you for making this video. 🙏🌷

      Although actually tuning the piano down to 432 might be even better, because it would likely naturally cause different harmonics compared to digitally tuning down...

    • @Acoustic-Rabbit-Hole
      @Acoustic-Rabbit-Hole 8 месяцев назад

      In a way, yes. Digitally tuning a recording down creates some degree of distortion. I once tried to convert a single piano note up by one whole octave, and it sounded completely off key and weird. . I realized, it was because there are so many underlying harmonics in an acoustic piano that the harmonics themselves were not preserved equally when shifting the note that high.

I don't care about what lot of people say, that there is no difference, I also don't care about those conspiracy theories and more, I just know that it feels much better to play and hear at 432 than 440 hz.

  • @andrevanderschoot842
    @andrevanderschoot842 Год назад +1

    People need to understand a few facts. A modern grand is built with a frequency of A = 440Hz - 442Hz maintaining the ideal string tension for every string used in our equal temperament. When you tune such a modern grand on 432 the strings are simply not on their optimal stretch . In order to ''hear'' what 432 Hz could sound like in an ideal way, a total new instrument should be built with optimal specifications of string length, width, tension that accompany 432Hz in the best way possible. Listening to 'tunings' on RUclips is flawed all the way. The comments of more 'relaxing'' and 'less harsh' have nothing to do with the tuning, but either an artificial conversion of the wav file from 440 to 432 OR loser/lower tuned strings that lose their pronounced edge when struck by a hammer. The result in both cases is a slightly softer tone that sound often better on a RUclips comparison clip. . In real life however, and i have tuned a few piano's on 432Hz, the piano loses much of it's ''body'' . Most people need an intonation of the hammer heads to reduce the harshness of the perceived sound. It has nothing to do with tuning.

    The 440 original evoked in me feelings of nostalgia (and invariably, loss). Really speaking to the music itself, it is unsettling in a way that only certain pieces can be and yet yields satisfaction in the knowledge that it elicited an emotional response. (Truthfully a testament to your playing and composition)
    The 432 although not really sounding all that different, didn't manage to generate that same response in me. It felt easier to listen to, but ultimately less impactful for me. Thank you for doing this, it's a rather interesting exercise.

    When you look at all the spaces in between the notes at 432Hz the difference between each notes is the same. Pi to be exact. It's the Fibonacci Sequence

    • @BFClayto
      @BFClayto Год назад +1

      As you go up in frequency, the spacing between semitones increases. Check out "This is You Brain on Music" Daniel Levitin. A very good explanation of the keyboard and the spacing between semitones. Very similar to our RF spectrum in use for radios. The higher in frequency you go, the wider the RF channels are. This is how you get more information across higher frequencies. This was quite eye opening for me as I work with RF communications. A quote from Infinite5ths: Think of it this way: Every time you double the frequency, you raise the pitch by an octave (12 semitones). So from A-440Hz to A-880Hz is 12 semitones. But then from A-880Hz to A-1760Hz is also 12 semitones. In one case you have a change of 440Hz spread over 12 semitones. In the other you have a change of 880Hz spread over 12 semitones. So as you go up the pitch scale, each semitone consists of a slightly larger change in frequency than the semitone below it. That is why the pitch system is non-linear. There is no set number of (change in) Hz per semitone. So the low end of the keyboard, the spacing between semitones is narrow in frequency than the octaves going up.

    • @matthiasmeuren137
      @matthiasmeuren137 Год назад

      from the mathematical view, the multiplication factor to change the frequency by one half tone is the 12th root of 2. If you multiply 440 Hz 12 times with the 12th root of 2, you get 880 Hz. Sorry, but neither Pi nor the Fibonacci sequence do deliver any hint in this question.

      Yes, of course... I've talked to my piano tuner about this several times, who is also a master piano maker and expert for legal issues. For simple pianos, tuning to 432 Hz can work, but he advised me against it, especially for larger modern grand pianos. The construction of the grand piano is very complex and tuned to individual vibrations. It could happen that the grand piano no longer sounds good at 432 Hz. It would also mean that after retuning to 432 Hz you would have to retune it very frequently, as it would take a long time for the new tuning to be held by the strings. - So, a lot of work, cost and risk for a high-quality instrument. But if I had an old upright piano standing around, I would give it a try. :)

    440 felt powerful, literally grabbed me. I could hear and feel the emotion. 432 felt hollow and safe. Like a soft landing. Less jarring than 440, empty. I can feel the difference, and I think I'd prefer the stress of a good song, nice and loud 440hz, to hear and feel every tone, esp while exercising.

    Atleast this song on this instrument. The 432 is more appealing. The 440 kinda made me feel uneasy and uninterested so i skipped through most of that section, but i listened to the full 432 section. The tone better represented the song i think. Calming

    The conversion was perfect. Don't hear any artefacts. May I ask how you did the conversion? Wondering if you have the piano itself tuned to 432, I believe it will sound even better. 440 is definitely edgy and more "distant", but familiar. 432 is like experiencing 20/20 vision after decades of the familiar slightly blurry vision. You can now stream music in 432 using vst and Audirvana. I use Elastique vst, and Qobuz.

    I’m a concert level piano technician and with 47 years experience, and a designer soundboards. I’m not a troll, nor a hater of this. I will add that pianos are designed with scales (tension,etc.) to sound best at a certain pitch. Bosendorfers, for example, are recommended by the factory to be tuned to A443. When tuned at the recommended pitch (as they were designed) the sound “pops”, lacking a better term. When I’ve tuned pianos for clients that want A432 I’ve found that the sound isn’t as vibrant as the board and scale needs. Some clients seem to like 432, but many immediately ask me to tune it back to A440. There is also a trend to tune to A444. Again, if a piano wasn’t designed for A440 this changes things drastically. I hope my comments aren’t taken as trolling, but before people start asking their tuner to drop the piano to 432 please don’t think this is some sort of magical pitch. Pianos “like” certain tensions and not all pianos will sound well at a pitch they weren’t designed for.

      Thank you very much for your detailed feedback and for sharing your experience with us. Of course you are not a troll! :D Just as you explain, my piano tuner also advised me against tuning this piano to 432. He was very sure that it would not sound any better. Glad to hear other experienced people like you confirm this. There are so many aspects that determine the sound, the frequency alone is not it either. ... That Bösendorfer recommends 443 Hz is really interesting. Unfortunately, I have never played one. :)

    A clear difference - the instrument sounds less stressed at 432 Hz. But I have to wonder how realistic the digital reprocessing to 432 Hz is. Accurate simulation of a piano re-tuning is extremely complex and difficult.
    Also, my GX-6 sounds sweeter and less harsh than yours even though it's tuned to 440 Hz. I cannot get such a strident quality from mine, even at fortissimo.

  • @PhillipLWilcher

    Musician/Composer here. I find A432 more aligned to my inner voice, which is to say that the sense of it sits well within my voice. Therefore, and since Music itself is first and foremost of a vocal conception, it would follow that A432 is more aligned to the source. But that my career as a composer has spanned 50 years, and I have never given a thought to it, I doubt that I will think all that much about it again after this. My point: I mostly hear the sounds I imagine and go from there. And, for the past two decades, I have written all my music using a piano despairingly in need of tuning. Not that I really know why beyond saying it tests my sense of pitch, do I prefer it that way. For a tuner to enter my music room and fix it would likely dismantle my world, but more my inner world of Silence versus Sound.

    beautiful music and talented performer 😊 now the question I have is the following: since detuning A4 from 440 to 432 Hz and then tuning the other 87 keys in relation to A4 lowers each note of the piano by approx 1/3 semitone, how would we appreciate the same song played on A440 but transposed 1 semitone lower would we feel the same improvement in terms of richness and melancholic appreciation as many have reported ?😊

    Both performances are acceptable to me, not looking at the keys being played. The 432 does sound a bit more relaxing actually, so I would have to agree with a lot of the comments here in that regard. Since I have perfect pitch, watching his hands playing in 440 was driving me a little nuts listening to it in 432. However, that being said, and this goes out to anyone putting out a piano performance in this platform or anywhere else, make sure you get the piano tuned beforehand. The fact that the piano here is so wretchedly out of tune is absolutely unforgivable. I'm a recording engineer, FOH engineer, sound system engineer, a keyboard musician of 65 years and a piano tuner. I can't even begin to say how many piano performances I've heard that could have been just wonderful had the piano been in tune!

    440 Hz ist wesentlich kraftvoller , ich denke für Chillout oder Meditationsmusik kann 432Hz besser klingen. Bei diesem Stück finde ich beide Varianten sehr schön. Ich kann nicht sagen was mir besser gefällt. Allerdings glaube ich das bei Genres wie Techno, House oder oder härterer Rockmusik sowie auch Metall 432 Hz eher kontraproduktiv ist. Das ist alles auch etwas Esoterisch was hier reininterpretiert wird. Herbert von Karajan verwendete bei den Berliner Philharmonikern 445Hz,in anderen Ländern wie zb Schweiz sind es 444 HZ. Bei Barock Musik wird manchmal 415 HZ verwendet ,da ist dann der Kammerton A fast einen Halbton tiefer wie bei 440 HZ. Ich sag es mal so 432 HZ finde ich friedvoller oder sanfter. 440 HZ kraftvoller.
