I wish Django was in real-world tune more often.

I want a Django box set where everything has the tuning fixed. Yeah, I have Transcribe but still damn.

This annoys me sometimes too when I want to play along with a tune, and it's out. I'm sure there's software which can autocorrect that while it plays, but I haven't bothered to investigate ..

Rather than fix the recording, why not retune your guitar?

Hey Matt,
This set has been re-pitched in 440:

@Jon because the recording is wrong, not my guitar
that's like fixing your limp by breaking the other foot

:rofl:
thanks I needed a good laugh

Used to have a turn-table and you you could speed it up or slow it down to change pitch. You could go back to spinning LP's

Possibly tuned to 432

Perhaps Django was on to something

Might like to check out this Video…

I find it fascinating, probably too Woo Woo for some. 8-|

I'm too lazy to pitch shift tracks one at a time. I'll check that Retrospective for sure though, thanks guys.

440 is usually agreed upon for tuning, but it's not law. Some vibraphones are tuned to 442 in the factory, and as a result bands with them generally tune to 442. Electronic tuners are all adjustable (usually from 430 hz to 450 hz), and aren't permanently stuck on 440.

As long as the ensemble is in tune with themselves, they're right--not "broken."

Adjusting your guitar seems like it'd be a lot easier than modifying recordings.

It takes maybe 20 sec to tune a guitar.
