  • HOW TO TUNE YOUR GUITAR, BASS & UKULELE TO 432 HZ – TUTORIAL

    As promised in my last post, I’m posting the instructions on how to tune your guitar to 432 tuning. This article is solely covering on the technicality of tuning, not the reasons why you should use it. See my last post for info on why you should consider using it.

    Please note, I am no music expert, I just do my research, and I am guided by musicians from “the great beyond”.

    First, a little bit of music theory. What is 432 hz referring to? It is the frequency that the A note in the middle C octave (on the piano) resonates at. So what you’ll see it noted like this: A=432, or what the moderns standard is, A=440. If you want to check what tuning you have on the piano, then play the A note in middle C (A4) and measure it with a tuner app that tells you the hz. On a guitar, the equivalent A note is on the fifth fret on the first string. Although there is 8 hz difference between 432 and 440, it does not mean that you lower each string by 8 hz. Each note has its own incremental difference, and what you must do to use 432 tuning is follow a chart that outlines the frequency for each key or string. Here is the chart to refer to so that you can retune for piano. This article is for guitars, but if you want to do it for piano, it is the same theory.

    To tune your guitar to 432, download a chromatic tuner app for your smartphone or tablet. Any one should do, as long as it measures the hertz (hz) that your guitar string is making. The app I am using on my iPad is called Chromatic Guitar Tuner (by Gismart). For Android devices, go here.

    This particular app has a setting that allows you to set the tuning standard to whatever you want. So press the setting button and change it to 432 by typing it in where it says “A=”. Then you can use the gauge indicator to tell you if you are in tune with the selected tuning standard, in this case, 432. It is really simple. And you can use the reference numbers below to make sure you are doing it right. This app is meant for pianos, but it’s great for guitars too. I used this app to tune my piano to 432 as well.

    Screenshot of Settings function from the tuning app.

    The other, more hands on way is this if you are not using the app I recommended above:

    Switch it on and measure the hz on each of your guitar strings. You can ignore everything else on the tuner. Compare the hz of each string to the chart below, and adjust it accordingly to match. (And obviously, go slow, don’t want you to break any strings.) I have also provided the measurements for bass guitar.

    Guitar Tuning
    A=432
    E – 81 hz (6th string)
    A – 108 hz (5th string)
    D – 144 hz (4th string)
    G – 193 hz (3rd string)
    B – 242 hz (2nd string)
    E – 323 hz (1st string)

    Bass Guitar Tuning
    A=432
    E – 41 hz (4th string)
    A –  54 hz (3rd string)
    D – 72 hz (2nd string)
    G – 96 hz (1st string)

    Ukulele Tuning
    A=432
    G4 – 385 hz for high G,  G3 – 192 hz  for low G (4th string)
    C4 – 257 hz (3rd string)
    E4 – 324 hz (2nd string)
    A4 – 432 hz (1st string)

    If you want to hear what the 432 hz frequency sounds like on your guitar, place your finger on the fifth fret of the first string, that is A. You can measure it and it will be at 432 hz, more or less. Please note that there can be some variation, as every guitar is a bit different.

    These numbers are based on what I measured from the tuning videos I found on YouTube, and comparing it with this chart. The numbers are rounded off.

    Update: A reader has sent me a tuning chart for different guitar tunings based on the information I shared. Here you can download the chart: 432 Hz Tuning Frequencies.

  • CHASING BUTTERFLIES WITH PRINCE

    Last week, we went to a butterfly conservatory. As we waited in line for tickets, I felt Prince grab onto my hand and smile delightfully. He had the look of childlike glee in his eyes. Beaming with excitement. It was so cute. His sweetness was emanating. He was wearing a suit in a shade of purple that was like a neon light, paired with a matching hat, in typical Prince style. I wanted to photograph the butterflies as much as I could. But it is a challenge. The place was busy with families enjoying the last days of summer vacation. This energy excited the butterflies, and they fluttered quickly around the place. I consider myself lucky that I got these two photos at all!

    I have a friend who is brilliant at getting butterflies to land on her hand. I would notice the children there holding out a butterfly in their hands. I wished very much that a butterfly would land on my hand. But my attempts did not work. Finally, as I photographed a child that had one on her hand, she asked, “do you want it?” And she passed it onto me.  I was surprised and delighted.

    Butterflies have been a symbol that we used in the begining  to communicate with each other when I asked for signs from him to confirm things. It reminds me of a line from his song, LoveSexy, “I know that heaven’s a butterfly kiss away”.

    Later in the day, I saw a purple car parked in a mall parking lot, and I smiled, because I knew it ws a sign from him. I had asked to see a purple car earlier that day.

  • PRINCE, AT MY PIANO

    A little while ago, I was sitting at my piano. I had just opened the cover, and I was sitting there, looking at the keys. When suddenly, I heard a sound that seemed like it was coming from the inside of my piano. It sounded like someone was sliding his finger across the surface of the piano. I was simply stunned, amazed. Prince, making his presence known, showing his love and support.

    I was born with piano fingers. Long and lean. People would always comment on my piano hands. I’ve always preferred to keep my nails short like a piano player’s. No reason why. My dad had bought a piano for me when I was one years old, an upright Yamaha in glossy, dark wood, delivered straight from Hong Kong. He was hoping that I’d learn to play. I never quite picked it up, even though I had lessons. I just didn’t like the silly little songs that I was given to learn. I discovered in my research that Prince’s first instrument was piano. He fired his piano teacher, because she wouldn’t let him play what he wanted. He wanted to play the Batman theme song. He became self-taught after that.

    I think if I am to ever learn piano, I’d have to be self-taught. Much of what I know about anything is self-taught. I like to improvise. I think that is our thing, as twin souls, one of our parallels. We like to explore on our own, and not be told how to do something. I recently started to learn to play a bit of piano. I like to make up my own tunes. Sometimes I can feel Prince’s energy coming through my fingers.

    Piano hands: Andrea Mai versus Prince

    Nothing makes me happier than when he shows up to work with me. Because the nature of our relationship is intangible in this reality, it is in working on creative projects that I can really feel connected with him. Sometimes I get these ideas, and then I will realize that they were also his ideas.

    Please note that on some weeks, I don’t post anything here. It just means I’m busy in my personal life or I’m taking time away. Other times, I just want to keep things to myself.

  • PRINCE TALKED ABOUT CHEMTRAILS – PHOTOS OF THE CHEMTRAIL CLOUDS

    A couple years ago, I starting noticing the strange cloud formations that were covering our skies. First the lines in the sky, then these strange formations that looked like cotton balls. If you observe carefully, you will notice a sort of line pattern in the photos below. These clouds are created using a secret technology called HAARP, where they use scaler waves to activate these chemtrail clouds. This is a form of geo-engineering, as these clouds will result in unnatural weather conditions.

    This summer, I have noticed more frequent chemtrail spraying in the skies here in Toronto. As soon as there are clear blue skies, it is not long before the lines start forming in the sky and by early evening, we will have full cloud coverage. The next day, it will rain. When you start paying attention to such things, the weather becomes somewhat predictable just by looking at the clouds.

    Last year I was photographing the chemtrails at sunset in Lavaux, and I noticed that the lines would appear to be moving and growing. I was confused and not quite sure of this, until in the last month or so, while I was working outside in the garden, standing in one place for a good half hour, I observed the lines in the sky moving and growing. The lines itself had shifted from one part of the sky to another. And then there was a sudden rainstorm that came in once the sky was covered in clouds. This is clearly evident that they are not contrails coming from planes, because exhaust fumes would not be able to stay up in the sky like that.

    This extra rain this summer, has been responsible for unusual flooding and sudden shifts in temperatures.

    It is bad enough that they are manipulating the weather, but what they are spraying in the skies are toxic chemicals that land everywhere, in the water and land. People who are concerned have been getting their garden soil tested and the results are showing quantities of barium, aluminium, and many other elements that are not naturally occurring, and do not belong there.

    This is a major problem that no government to being a part of, and no mainstream media is reporting. If you think these clouds are normal, then you really don’t know clouds, my friend. Start paying attention, and you will notice the thing I am talking about here.

    Prince spoke about chemtrails in his interview on Tavis Smiley in 2009. Here the clip of it. The song he is asked about is called Dreamer, and I did a post about that song here.
