ATTENTION IMPORTANT 432HZ DISCOVERY
Category: Music
1 hertz..(Hz) is a 'C' at A-432
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 636131


Well, yes and no. If you want to figure out the difference of the ultra-low C-note at the different standards, you need to back out some simple math stuff:

The basic formula for the frequencies of the notes of the equal-tempered scale is given by
fn = f0 * (a)n
where
f0 = the frequency of one fixed note which must be defined.

Examples using A4 = 440 Hz:

C5 = the C an octave above middle C. This is 3 half steps above A4 and so the frequency is
f3 = 440 * (1.059463..)3 = 523.3 Hz

Since octave notes are either one half or twice the value of the adjacent note, the various C note frequencies in Hertz would be as follows:

523.251
261.626
130.813
65.406
32.703
16.352
8.176
4.088
2.044
1.022 ("Grandpa C note)

For A=432 hZ, then C5 would be 513.7 Hz.

Following the same rules as before, we get the following frequency values fo C with A=432 Hz:

513.737
256.869
128.434
64.217
32.109
16.054
8.027
4.014
2.007
1.003 ("Grandpa C note)

So the Low-low-low C at A432 is closer to 1 than the same note at A440 is, but not by much.

But the real reason that your value is so close is that when people were screwing around with different approaches to building a scale in Bach's day (ever heard of Bach's "Well-tempered Clavier"? LOL!) they decided to start with a Bullfrog C at exactly 1 Hz and then see how much the result would differ from the standard pitch -- and A-432 is what they came up with.

So the reason that people plug A-432 is that's what you end up with when you start at C-1, not the other way around.

ATTENTION! IMPORTANT 432 DISCOVERY!!

Well, it was an "IMPORTANT 432 DISCOVERY", all right, but that was back in the early 18th century!

The distance that this wave "C" will travel before it recycles is 186282.397 miles

The speed.. of light.. is 186282.397 miles per second...... (yes your reading it right.......he he)

Well, duh! If light travels 186282.397 mi/sec, then anything with a frequency of 1 hz (which means "cycle per second", right?) will have a wavelength of exactly one light-second!

How could it be anything else?
