440 has a wider space between the high and lows. 432 sounds more even, this smoother and warmer

[ragegohard]

the 432 seems to hit me right in the third eye :)

440… experimented with it a lot recently. Coming always back. Would be interesting to write and arrange a song with it actually to sound something different

[stewartmoir]

432 just has less energy, is slower. Like a old cassette player that is running low on batteries. IMO the idea of a standard hz in music is wrong and should be left to the musicians to decide.

[TheBangerz]

432hz is alot smoother between notes. Where 440hz seem to jump further between notes..

[georgeda]

Thinkers dont forget.. all instruments are built to encourage 440hz musically... not other frequencies, so to listen the beauty of 432hz you also need the correct build instrument.. think of strativirius violins..

We are biased because we have always heard 440

[hunterjansson]

Never actually heard a side by side example of this. 432 sounds awful to me for some reason

[jaythepainter]

Idk if it's the mic & processing or the tuning but

440=Crisp highs cutting a more defined separation from the sharp & punchy lows. Intentional and at the wheel driving it.

432= softer blend like the
warm feelings of a cool breeze on a hot day. Laid back flow state & enjoying the

Tuned to 432 and haven't left it to go back to 440. I doalot if noodling around without a purpose and doin that just sounds better in 432

[MrFuzzleupagus]

I just started experimenting with 432 Hz. I’ve been interested with ambient type stuff lately so I thought I’d try different tuning.

As far as which one sounds better, I think it’s suggestive. What sounds good to one person might not to another.

Personally, I am finding 432 more and more calmer.

🥰I choose with the frequency of the Earth 432hz in tune the the planet🥳

[abbyredrose]

440 sounds richer to me sounds like when you play in a room that has a perfect acoustic echo

[rajeevnaik]

You're playing one after the other so obviously the second one will sound out of tune because we're grounded to first one

[DozerfleetProd]

Many instruments work better in 432. Though, the engineering for many modern guitars is set to make it hard to tune it particularly well in 432, as yet another way to compel the 440 industrial standard.

[hichamdreamer]

440 better 432 weard it's the pitch not frequency

[germanmurta]

440 its fine, 432 sounds detuned in comparison with this clip

[erichunterx]

432, eu amo essas frequências baixas, fica com se fosse 1/4 do tom abaixo. ❤
