I had to look for an alternative player (which turned out to be VLC) in order to play music during my workouts. My feature request isn't exactly a strict "pitch control", but rather, an option that happens to affect pitch.Īllow me to explain. I was actually going to start a new thread, but found that this has been requested for a while. But a change needs to be made and the whole point of returning to a natural tuning is to benefit mankind. We don't want to get hung up on why 440 was chosen, no need to focus on the evil in the world. Until there is a larger change in societies' consciousness, this feature will be used by the minority, but it's inclusion in Poweramp is one of real benefit. Many musicians are actually recording these days in tunings other than 440. While conversion may not be as good as a recording made from instruments tuned to 432, it is the only option for much of the music out there. There is also Foobar2000 which has a plugin called SoundTouch which can convert to whatever you like and offers tempo, pitch and rate adjustment. There are players like "432 player" that convert from 440 to 432 on the fly. If you do your research, beware of the cynic's and shill sites out there. There is some scientific evidence to support 432 is in harmony with nature and more beneficial to the listener.
There is evidence to support that standard tuning used to be 432Hz (used by the likes of Mozart and Verdi) but was changed to 440 for not so honorable reasons, involving Nazis and perhaps others. There is a somewhat controversial theory about how and why the western world is using 440Hz tuning, also known as standard tuning and concert tuning.
I came here today to make a request for two features, and pitch control is one of them and I will explain why some may want or need this feature.
