This was the other thing I was thinking of when I read your question.. I would say that it sounds "slower", not "better".. Pitch shifting without tempo shift will sound bad. Tempo shift without pitch shift will sound bad. The only way to really compare is to get recordings made with the different tuning. And crucially - not the same song, back to back. Play lots of 432 tuned material one after the other and after a while you will find it no longer has its special "feel". The only reason it sounds special in the short term is because you must acclimatise to the change. Alternatively watch any movie at all, ever, on a British TV at 50Hz uplifted from 23.96Hz with a pitch shifted soundtrack and see how pleasant it is.. :) All imho. :) -- Hardware: 3x Touch, 1x Radio, 2x Receivers, 1 HP Microserver NAS with Debian+LMS 7.9.0 Music: ~1300 CDs, as 450 GB of 16/44k FLACs.
