Tuning? You've got me there! My ignorance of musical theory might just cause a little embarassment here ... I'm simply looking for: . . a: j Hz b: k Hz middle c: l Hz d: m Hz e: n Hz . . etc . | |||||

2692.4 | standard tuning | AQUA::GRUNDMANN | Bill DTN 297-7531 | Mon Jul 29 1991 11:10 | 5 |
Forgot to mention, A4 (I think it's 4) is 440.0 for "standard" tuning. I believe there is another tuning (European?) that's a little different maybe based on A4=442.? Also, this is equal tempered - there are other tunings as well. | |||||

Tayo, You realize, of course, that we in Commusic now have to charge for our time participating here. So, what's your cost center? ;^) ;^) ;^) Steve |
