Description

This device tunes your vsti/au's or Ableton instruments to different tuning.

All the instrument needs to get it working, is a pitchbend control and a set range for the pitchbend.

Set the PB range in your synth to match the range in the device and you're set !

So if you want to tune your instruments to 432hz, set the PB range to match that of your synth. And in the box below, the cents (float), enter -31,766.

Now the instrument is set to 432hz.

Thanks to Broc and Robtech !

    Only one problem:
    440hz-432Hz = -31.766... cents
    but
    middle C (at a=440) = 261.63 Hz
    middle C (at a=432) = 256Hz
    a difference of -37.661 cents
    The cents detune amount is different FOR EVERY SINGLE NOTE.
    So yes, this device is out of tune when playing chords or with other instruments tuned to A=432

    Taking into account even temperament...
    if A=432 Hz, C= 256.8687368406 Hz
    then the cents adjustment -31.7666536334 is the same straight across the board...
    ...so why is my Tension still out-of-tune with my Bass & Guitar?
    Hmmm...
    Thanks for your work on this, BTW :)

    Hello! The plugin seems to not be working for me. Is there a latest version that I am missing or a bug fix?
    Thanks,

    Is there any Microtuner which can retune individual Keys ?
