Pianissimo Tuning
Sorry if this has been asked before. I can't get search to work.
I'm trying to add a Pianissimo track to an existing recording. The recording is from a cassette take and is not tuned to standard 440 making Pianissimo out of tune with it. Of all the Pianissimo setting, I don't see a tune option. Is there one and if so, can you point me to it? I don't want to re-pitch the recording to match the piano. Thanks in advance. -Craig

Hi
You could just repitch the piano.. Select the clip, open the sound tab and the notes can be adjusted up or down in semi tones.

Re: Pianissimo Tuning
Thank you Trevor for the reply. Unfortunately the difference between the recorded pitch and the piano pitch is less than a semitone. Probably a few cents. I may need to use another piano if pianissimo is not tunable. Thank you though.

Re: Pianissimo Tuning
Hi,
You transpose by a fractional amount, like 0.3 or 0.7 if you want.

Re: Pianissimo Tuning
Oh? How do you do that? Tried on mine and it reverts back to 0.0. Can't get it to do anything other than a semi tone at a time.Acoustica Greg wrote: ↑Mon Aug 30, 2021 9:11 am Hi,

Re: Pianissimo Tuning
I just typed it in?
We used to suggest this all the time for the 432 Hz people.

Re: Pianissimo Tuning
mmmm - yes, I can type it in, but if I hit 'enter' it returns to 0.0. Also, just leaving it as typed doesn't alter the pitch - I tried 0.9 as an example.

Hi,
Um, you're not entering a comma instead of a period over there in the UK, are you?

Re: Pianissimo Tuning
Nope Greg - definitely a period on either the main keyboard or the numerical keyboard.
Could be a UK thing? Can anyone else try?
It displays as it should - 0.3 but reverts to 0.0 when you hit 'enter'

Hi,
If I put a space after the minus sign (like in your example), it goes back to 0.0.

Re: Pianissimo Tuning
Use your mouse after typing in 0.whatever. Point the mouse outside the box. Don’t use the enter key.

Re: Pianissimo Tuning
Greg: That 'minus' was meant to be a 'dash' to separate the two parts of the sentence So I did not enter '-0.3' but rather '0.3'
Tom: Tried that but it also doesn't work. And again, leaving it as 0.9 (almost a semi tone) it does not alter the pitch at all.
Maybe a bug, or just the UK keyboard
