[pianotech] Cents and CPS

[reggaepass at aol.com]

.... and the relationship between cents and CPS changes as you go up and down the keyboard, since every octave is said to contain 1200 cents, but different octaves have different numbers of CPS in them.

Hi there,


 


Could someone remind me of how many Cents equals one increment in 
CPS.   If a piano is 4 cents sharp to A440cps, what pitch are we 
talking about.


 


Thanks,

At A4, it's roughly 1 Hz for every 4 cents.
