So brought me here🤷🏾‍♂️😂

Who here from king so💯

As a guitar player for 55 years, I’ve tried 432 at different times but with different instruments it’s hard for everyone to get used to it, but to me I hear harmony’s sound richer in 432 and more natural.

I recommend trying this again but keeping it a blind test. In other words you will play the two songs without revealing which frequency it is, a and b. The viewer can take note of what they thought then after you play your sample reveal which one it is. You could do a series of these mixing them up. a blind test is better bc it eliminates some of the bias.

Who automatically searched up 432 hz after watching Solluminati 😂

Who else is here after watching solluminati?👀👀#staywoke

Objectively the difference is nominal but I swear I felt the 432 version resonate within me. Thank you for such a great comparison video.

Just came across this video. And as a music engineer, this is actually, and sadly to admit, my first time ever listening to these two side by side. At least on my ear bud headphones, there was definitely a dissonance within the low-mid frequencies of the 440; that did not exist in the 432. The 432 seemed completely consonant, as though every note and frequency gelled together. Listening to the 440 by itself, my ear would not have picked it up. But side by side definitely. You say it doesn't matter the frequency, but it's how you play. I now disagree. Each song you played sounded better in the 432. I'd like to start trying my own tracks in 432. Thanks so much for the video!!

Solluminati ahh jus got you like 250k views💀

Who here after watching Solluminati video 😂😂

That was fascinating! Thank you for swapping which one went first too! I definitely prefer the 432 - it felt like there were more subtle harmonics going on as well as feeling warmer and made me less tense, whereas the 440 felt flatter and weirdly metallic - amazing playing!!!

From the 59 year old lifetime musician, vocalist and public school music teacher - Each frequency has it's own power, feeling, ability, and some would say color - the 440Hz was definately brighter, stronger, more tense; the 432 warmer, more relaxed, loving. Both can serve an emotional message. As a song writer, I find the musical key (frequency) of a song incredibly important to the feeling and message of the song, as important as the words, chords, and arrangement. The room you are in can also play a factor. The frequencies should respond in the manner you want with the materials in the room - wood, metal, etc. Great video, great comments here. Thank you Paul!!

"XXXTentacion was RIGHT!!! (Must See)" i like the new solluminati 😂

My boy So brought the whole gang to the comment section🤣🤣🤣

Man, what an interesting topic! I have to say I like both for different reasons and I think both could have a place in music suitable for each. All that to say, I really really like the 432. It's smooth, warm, soft, and easy. Slightly sad like a nice minor chord. Love it.

There is a richness to the timbre of the 432hz.. its my favorite for reducing anxiety and frequently listen to it throughout my day... thank you for your explanation and video ive been trying to get my husband to understand why the night sleep frequencies are so good for us (our health continues to improve and so does our relationship... we sleep "Grounded" every night while either 432hz or 528hz music plays ...

I am a musician. I listened carefully as songs were played in both frequencies. The only way I can describe what I felt was the difference is that 432 Hz feels more ‘authentic’ and possibly a bit ‘warmer’ to my ear, and the 440 Hz has an oddly ‘flat surface’ type of sound which feels ‘colder’ and definitely more ‘mechanical’. This is the best I can do. Which do I prefer? Definitely the 432 Hz. Even when a single note is played the 440 feels metallic and machine-like. Please be aware that the impressions I had were EXTREMELY subtle.

Toes 😏

432 was instantly noticeable. I felt chills throughout my whole body and felt more relaxed instantly. This normally happens when I listen to something in 432hz

Thank you! So grateful for your work!

Nature So, Sun Gazing So brought me here😂😂

I appreciate that you was changing what frequency starts first, which is important. In such variations is really nice to compare.

Thank you for taking the time to explain& show in the utmost detail as to help the masses grab a hold of this/these concepts/frequencies.

i tunes my guitar at 420 , now i can only play reggae? anyone else have this problem?

Who’s here not cuz of Solluminati? Siiiike we all here from King So. Hope you all living a blessed life

Anyone could feel something flowing and glowing in your chest with 432 music? Not an obvious difference from this comparison video, as it takes some time before you enter a flow state to really vibe with it. It's a brand new feeling like it never existed before. I made a 432 filter on my music app to test the effect. But after I added the filter for a week, I just couldn't get the vibe. Then I double checked and it turned out I forgot to activate the filter. That's when I knew it wasn't a psychological suggestion. I could felt the difference! Try listening to some classic piece with 432 for a while before drawing any conclusion.

What amazed me is that switching from 440 to 432 felt like switching from a solid state amp to a tube amp, or from a CD to vinyl! There is just something softer and more musical about it...

Ok, everyone is here from Spiritual So.. We get it

Once I tuned my guitar with A at 666 Hz, it caught on fire instantly when I started to play, is it normal?

Great Video Paul, from just listening to the example pieces you played I noticed a distinct difference between the two tuning standards and of the two, those completed to the 432 Hz tuning frequency sounded noticeably more natural and 'correct' to my admittedly untrained ear . . . It certainly does seem though as if there could be a point to the overall debate over the gradual gravitation towards A 440 Hz as a universally adopted tuning standard . . . it seems like a compromise moving things to a round number either for the sake of simplifying matters or possibly to suit some other more specific aim possibly related to broadcast parameters. Thanks for the great content btw, keep it up! 😃👊💯💯

Thank you for the backround and display of the 440 Hz and 432 Hz playing. Sound has always been important for me.

Gimme a HEEEEEEEE. so waking us up 👀

*Solluminati got me woke this summer 👀*

This guy has a great talking voice and a lovely manor, thanks for your work here.

Truly appreciate this breakdown on hertz we're receiving.💯🤙🏽

432 I'm in my heart. 440 I'm in my head. That says it all for me.

So brought me here, simple. Who would have thought So would bring me to a video like this... tuff

lovely video with thoughtful construction. thank you for sharing your work~

The difference is huge! I can feel the pleasantness vibrating from my chest upwards when hearing 432hz, unconsciously I smile and tend to close my eyes, that's how my body reacts. 440hz seems to not resonate in the body at all, as compared to another sound feels like there is no response at all, it also sounds much more flat to ear. But after a few more examples on 440hz I can say I noticed a subtle tremble in the lower parts of the body, back of the thighs, knees. Can't describe it as pleasant. Amazing video! Thank you so much!!!

432 seems fuller, more resonant while 440 is brighter, almost has a “bite”to it. I’m glad you played more than one song. I wasn’t sure i was hearing the difference at first but at the second one i was thinking, yep. I heard it. Then i knew what to listen for in the rest of them. So interesting.

Who here because SO video😂🙋🏽‍♂️

After playing for over 40yrs and learning of 432 several years ago but not really paying attention or trying it, I appreciate the comparison video you have done. My take is 432 is definately easier on the mind and ears, not more mellow but more insync and the word that comes to mind for the 440 comparison is Brash. It is very evident during the Pink Flloyd tune that standard is much more brash and I also see the diabolics in Geobbels reasoning......maybe, like sae vs metric, someone should start a band in 432 and see how it affects the fan base and sales?

so glad I discovered your video. Companring the 2, I found 432Hz, it was a feeling, you could feel it, just felt like you could immerse yourself in the music, whereas the 440 hz was something you just listened too, but didn't truly feel or connect with

I'll never return to 440 again. Been playing 432 for several months and it's made such a crazy difference in my songwriting. I used to get really stressed writing music, now it flows.

Who here after watching SOLLUMINATI XXXtentacion was right video

Dude the song you played made me tear up. I had my eyes closed and just listened. During the second playing of each I would make a guess of which was tune was which and there's a definite difference in feel between the frequencies. The last one effected me the most. The 432 hz literally felt like I was letting go of some sad event.

True the second is arbitrary, and so it the actual Hz mesurement as a result.. but I have heard it said that it's more to do with how harmonics manifest down the scale. The waveform still exists and is distinct regardless of timing used to measure Hz. If it's all arbitrary anyway, why not use the Schumann res as a low frequency starting point? Perhaps that is why tuning-by-ear before the days of tuning forks resulted in it being closer to 432, it (and it's multiples) harmonized with the inaudible ultra-low 8Hz we've been immersed in forever.

Trying to read proper helpful comments but all I see is "who came here from SO" 🤦🏾‍♂️

I’ve never actually heard 432 and 440 side by side before. I’ve never noticed how bad it grates on the nerves when switching from 432 to 440 . That’s insane!

I don’t think I would say one sounds better than the other. The thing I do notice is that when 432 starts I get an unspecific feeling of memories that I would relate to looking at a family photo album.

Brilliant video, good analogy

Hard to tell if I’m tricking myself into liking 432Hz more... but, as far as I can tell 432 sounds way more comforting than 440

My guitar is not out of tune. My guitar is resonating with The Universe o__o

A problem with such a study is that anyone with even basic ear training can easily tell which is 432/440 in a double-blind study with the same song played together in a random order .. the preference for one or the other will in many cases be because one either seems warmer (432) or sounds less muffled and has more depth (440), but that also does not only depend on the tuning, but also on the recording/mixing etc .. eg the perception of too much brightness in some songs can be fixed by simple and subtle eq/filtering without actually changing the tuning, conversely the muffled nature of others in 432 can also be adjusted by adding some shimmer etc.

Really interesting and thoughtfully executed video. I do like the comment one where below that suggested keeping the two versions ‘blind’ so you can decide a preference without inferring values based on knowing ahead of time which was 432 and 440. The differences, even through a shitty iphone speaker where quite interesting. I found myself not liking the 2nd version of each song because in my head I fixed the first version as the benchmark! That’s more about me then the music I think. Enjoyable video, thank you.

432 is calming and relaxing. The 440 makes me tense

432 sounds old fashioned and softer. i like this though I'm used to 440s sharpness

Great video. Thanks for the explanation and great comparison with music.

As an update, I just watched this again not remembering I had seen it before until I saw my comment at that time. No change, a clear tingling sensation moved up my spine and through my body the moment 432 was played. I no longer listen to the radio.

There was a noticeable difference in my case... When he played in 440 I seized an old lady's purse and made haste to my hideout to count the loot. But when he played in 432 I experienced a sudden change of heart and returned the purse, along with its contents, and threw in a couple of Burger King coupons for good measure.

You need to go solo man, the other guy is holding you back.

I cant decide yet what 440 hz makes me feel but i can for sure that every song u played in 432 especially the first one, triggered some kind of memory, good and bad memories but even the bad ones became good in a way and i just started feeling really really nostalgic and warm

432 ! I definitely resonate more.with it. It feels warmer and more "homy" to me. Thank you so much for the comparison 💚

I haven't watched the Solluminati video but I will say the 432hz sounds more natural then 440hz. The side by side comparison is amazing.

Oh yeah. 440Hz is more pressurized on my head, while 432Hz feels much more light. I noticed that right when 432Hz hit, I instantly felt peaceful. The difference is such a crazy revelation once you listen to both side by side.

Its crazy how @432 can bring on a heavy emotional response or reaction. Truly, feeling the music and vibration of the symphonies. When you play @440, the music doesn't resonate the same and adds a different darker emotional response. Music is a gift to the world. I thank you for this enlightening video.

Very interesting. Thank you for taking the time to run the comparisons. Shalom.

everybody talking about the hz but i'm here tryna undertsand how the man cloned himself

That's very interesting. In the 440 the higher notes is a bit irritating to the ear. And the 432 seems to relax you.

IT hits an entirely different part of my physical body, its not so much that 440 is doing bad things however 432 just engages the pineal area right at the front of the forehead, my ears jump into action and i feel more alert. Love the choice of songs, especially redemption song man thank you for making this clear comparison video

This is how i would describe what i felt listening to both, by attempting a blind test (thank you to comment above which suggested so). 432Hz has an "expandable feeling", the feeling of a vibrating note reaching far/deep beyond, and naturally ease off. It felt open, bright. 440Hz felt "contained within a space", may I describe by borrowing the effect (very mild version) of notes hit with sostenuto pedal. Been consider tuning my piano to 432Hz. Glad stumbling across this video and able to listen to a comparison. Wouldn't judge on the good and bad on this, purely due to how 432Hz made the ears feel :) at ease.

Who else came from solumanati 😭

My DNA was almost healed and then you switched back to 440.

Wow, that’s incredible the 440 actually actually kind of agitated me where when you played that same music in 432 I felt this calm serenity…

Thanks for comparison. It was difficult to notice any difference in frequency without strict comparison. However, now I feel like 432 “feels” better in dynamic range and sounds more pleasant for my ears. Probably from nature we notice some frequencies better than others and there is an optimal spot in mid range. And we should also consider that it depends on ears structure so everyone has personal preferences.

I'd like to see a double-blind test where they do not pre-load the listener with which audio is at which frequency. And THEN see if there is any statistically-significant preference.

432 all the way! I agree it sounds/feels warmer and has more depth. I feel a stronger emotional ear toon to the beauty of the music as well, it actually seems to have more profoundness to it

What a great idea for a video! I found this while researching whether 432hz or 440hz tuning works better with singing bowls. Looked at the math (engineering nerd) and folks have worked out impressive numerical relationships and intervals over the years... Problem is, it's all kind of random, as Paul pointed out with the arbitrary time interval of one second to measure and reference all of this thought. For instance, we count in base-10 pretty much because... we have ten fingers and toes. All of the division, decimals and frequency relationships are based on numbers that are 'sacred' because we have that many fingers. Cats count in base-8 and three-toed sloths in, well, you get it... As a professional musician for 45 years, I'm going to go with the character of music being determined primarily by intervals (the distance between tones) rather than the exact frequencies themselves. If you like sacred geometry and numerology, go with A-432hz and knock yourself out. For me, I would soon get used to ANY tuning standard and still compose music based on the distances between tones and harmonic structure. I like A-440hz because it enables me and my music friends to play in tune with each other, bond harmonically and become one with the Universe (which means 'one song', by the way). 🙂

For me listening, I felt the 432hz sound waves carried for longer and had a lower vibration which encompassed me comfortably, whilst the 440hz had a jarring twang and a shorter vibration, which made me wince slightly. The difference is felt rather than heard. Thank you for the comparison.

I closed my eyes from the beginning of each song and kept them closed until the end. Judged on which one sounded fuller and gave the same guitar a rich thicker sound and at the end, I found each time I chose the 432Hz. Amazingly, it did seem a more peaceful feeling.

432 sounded so much sweeter to my ears. 440 was far more abrasive.

I loved throwing in some Pink Floyd thank you for that.

I find this information very interesting. My first time learning about this & I am still adjusting to the 2 different frequencies played here. WOOOW!! I will be caught mixing up which one is which - since it’s my first….. but then at the same time our hearing capabilities is tested if we can distinguish the difference. I so appreciate this information. I was listening to Pastor Louie Giglio and he highlighted this in his sermon -- I just had to exit the sermon to come search & listen to what SOUND was he referring to 440Hz …. I am glad I found your video here, Sir explaining this. Thank you so much. Have a wonderful day and to all reading this thread. (Friday 02/02/2024 California USA 🇺🇸 1.02pm PT)👌👌🤝🤝👏👏🙌🏼🙌🏼🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️

440 had a more “ in your face” sound. A kinda of projection, like it was trying to reach out and grab you. 432 had a middle tone that I found very calming. The first piece you played had a base note that at 440 was annoying, but at 432 it blended in.

The 440hz made my head explode all over the walls and carpet. Lucky you played the 432hz straight after and my body miraculously healed itself (and repaired my DNA also) so now I'm better than ever.

Paul's voice is so relaxing in the beginning...start of the video must've been recorded at 432 😊

I used for a period 442 Hz ,perfect for an old Gibson LesPaul! Allfrequenzies are interesting. Thanx. cheers from Berlin/ GER

Six years ago, I was diagnosed with end-stage liver failure caused by trauma from a car accident- they gave me a 15% chance of living two months. I already played acoustic guitar, but I used 440. I actually messed it up without realizing it, and changed the setting on my sound hole tuner to 432, and I started feeling better. Not immediately or anything like that- but enough to keep me going, and I've been putting in hours of practice a day, both playing and singing, and I managed to not only survive, but to avoid having a liver transplant. I can't prove that the music was the one thing that healed it, but it certainly didn't hurt- and a big dreadnaught sound box right against your body certainly drives those vibrations into you. I'm not sure that I would claim that listening to music at 432 makes much of a difference in reality, but playing it absolutely does...

I can feel my heart rate change from the 432 to the 440. 440 makes me feel tense but the 432 is soothing

That was very interesting and informative. Really enjoyed the tuning comparison segment. I listened with my eyes closed to see which sounded “right”/“better” and my ears must be tuned to 440Hz. Thinking about WHY that is, is intriguing. Probably because of David Gilmour . 😂 Thanks for making this! 👍

Very interesting! As a musician and guitarist since 30 years back, I think 432 feels a little bit softer on the ear. I'm gonna start tuning my guitar that way. Thanks!

at first when i heard 432hz it felt out of tune but after 5 seconds or so it felt a lot more natural and soothing and then 440hz came in and it sounded so brittle and harsh in comparison. really interesting. the skeptic in me wants to believe they landed on 440hz for 'concert pitch' for the projection and clarity of notes, especially amongst an ensemble but the difference in feeling you get from both is too much to ignore

Judging by what I heard from your playing 440 sounds more familiar to me but 432 just sounds better some how

You play so beautifully

I do even know anymore. I think it may depend on the individual song and key. Also, preference. Or perhaps the ability of the musician. I've heard some off key songs that the musician really pulled off well.

WOW! I had no idea the difference would be so drastic! As a musician myself, I can "Hear" 440 musically and the harmonizing relative pitches. BUT I can "Feel" 432 and it is so, so much more pleasant!

Verdict: 440hz hurts my ears and makes me feel like something is off and feels discordant 432hz: feels joyful, pleasant and lowers my heart rate It feels more natural and flowy

Amazing! ❤

Whatever hits you in the feels is what resonates with you. You are your own antenna to the universe.

440 hz has a sharper and invoked a more of a fun, energetic sensation where as the 432 hz invoked a more serene, calming deeper soul reaching vibe
