How to pitch Nord Stage 88 ex to 442 Hz

Post by wingomingo »

Hi, I'd like to pitch my Stage 88 ex to 442 Hz (natura). Only function I can find is pitching in cents. Does any of you have an idea of how many cents to pitch up? Is there another way to do it? All help is greeted welcome.

Hi,

If you want 442 Hertz, you need to set the tuning to +7.85 Cents, i.e., 8 if only integer values are admissible.
Check this websites for the mathematical explanation:
