Hello, Is there a way to set the global tuning to the Keyboard instrument within Studio One? I have had to use the "Pitch Fine Tune" knob but that is a hassle every time I set up a new instruments. We are playing in 432hz and 444hz. I need to be able to preset the tuning to one of those Frequency's ( 432hz and 444hz ) not 440hz. I have to use the "Pitch Fine Tune" and a "Tuner" plugin to set the instrument to one of those frequency's.

Our church band plays in 432hz and I record  tracks in the 444hz (to achieve the 532hz "Miracle Frequency" ).

Is there a simple "Global setting"?

Thanks, Shock

Studio One doesn't currently have global tuning option. You can change tuning per instrument however and you can use the built in tuner for tuning other instruments appropriately.

I also use alternate calibrations and currently use 444 for my originals. I would also very much appreciate a global tuning feature. Having said that, another option is to using a tuning plugin such as Waves SoundShifter Pitch. Note that waves calculates the calibration offsets based on the source and destination tuning. So... 440 to 444 = +15 and 440 to 432 = -31. So if you don't have a plugin you can just offset your VST instrument accordingly and you should be good to go.

440 to 444 = +15 Cents
