Dear List: A discussion among some musician friends has put me at the task of finding some hard evidence pertaining to "European Concert Pitch" and just where that is on the cycles per second scale. I have been attempting to search the PTG archives for some information concerning the ratio of cycles per second and cents deviation as it pertains to Concert Pitch, whether it be A440, A442, A435.....etc. The question in the group was if the cents of deviation was equally spaced between each change of cycles per second deviation, ie; A441= 3.6, 4.1 or 5.0 cents above A440........A442= 8.0 9.0 or 10 cents above A440. And additionally which cents deviation is correct. I had a chart on it at one time...lost it in a house fire. The archives is reacting to me like talking to the Monolith in 2001. Please e-mail me privately to save on the redundancy of bandwidth. THANKS! DALE WHITEHEAD P.S. Actually....me thinks the real question was the ol' SATII vs. Guitar tuner thang...
