![]() In fact, the only way you could ever apply this rather dubious processing correctly would be to assess the pitch of your recording, and then doing some math, because each recording is going to be different.īasically, the whole idea's a crock of. A lot of organs are tuned to quite weird pitches - if you apply this correction to most Henry Willis organs, you'll get them back nearer to 440! Anything recorded by analog means is likely to have marginal pitch differences by the time it's been between at least two tape recorders and a pressing lathe, so this makes any shift that's blanket-applied look pretty dubious too. This is because they simply don't take account of the fact that a heck of a lot of recorded music (especially in the past) wasn't recorded at 440Hz in the first place! For instance, most 'early instrument' music is already recorded at the 'correct' pitch, and altering it will simply make it sound wrong. The reasons stated for wanting to do this all seem to revolve around some sort of brain magic that happens, and multiples of 8Hz, but really, all this stuff about 'converting everything you've got' are WAY wide of the mark. But, I feel morally advised to warn you about this. ![]()
