>Don't worry about changing what's already there (like if it says something other than 440), this will do the trick fine. It should say "percent change: -1.8"
thats so wrong i won´t even debunk it
FUCK YOU!
The origins of the "higher German pitch", i.e., A-440, are explained
by Deagan:
"A-435 was for years, the official pitch of the American Federation
of Musicians, the largest body of organized musicians in the world,
and was also the pitch generally used by pipe organ and piano
builders.
"But the fact remains that the majority of the best professional
musicians using wind instruments were actually using the old higher
German pitch brought from Russia to Vienna after the Napoleonic wars
(about 1816 to 1820) by the Czar of Russia, Alexander I, who during
the Congress of Vienna, presented to crack Austrian regiment bands
beautiful Russian-made full sets of band instruments in a higher
pitch than heretofore, which made such bands sound more brilliant
than bands using the older pitch known as "Sauveur's Philosophical
Pitch, C-512" (arrived at by computing the ninth power of 2-29) or
A-430.5.
"This new higher pitch and other still higher pitches became very
popular afterwards all over Europe, but the French would have none
of it (too high for opera singers), so the French got up a compro-
mise pitch, A-435. This new French pitch, called "Diapason Normal",
was between A-440 and A-430.5 This latter pitch (the official pitch
of Europe for over one hundred years) was the old pitch of Bach,
Mozart and Beethoven (before 1816)."
