Re: A = 440 Hz OR 432 Hz?

[Ben <benoitruelle@yahoo.fr>]

Well in fact, I sometimes generate single cycle wav file for different
purposes.

If I use the sampling frequency of 44.1khz, a single cycle @A=441Hz 
has a duration of 1/441 second that means 44100/441=100 samples. It's 
then is easy to create a seamless loop. 
(A single sine cycle for instance)
If I use the 440Hz, I would give me 44100/441=100.22 samples. The loop
is not so perfect and may click in some case. Or to have a perfect 
loop I would need several cycles or apply some crossfading.

I hope this is now more clear.
