I know this is an older topic and I was researching 432hz tune. 432hz was in fact used in ancient music until WESTERN Society in the United States changed tuning to 440hz in the 1930s. WHO changed it? What group of people changed it? Oh yes their good ole music industry in the United States did this and I bet people are seeing the truth to who these people are currently!!

WHY? They took what was original, what was natural and tuned to 440hz which is not really that great IMHO. 432hz is the natural sound of this planet, facts. 432hz roots up to the same as the SPEED OF LIGHT and most people don't even know this fact. Now think, 3,000-4,000 years ago how were people in the Mideast able to tune their instruments to 432hz which roots up to the same as the speed of light? I don't believe it was a "coincidence" whatsoever but somebody show humans the truth within themselves from the heart.

I have been experimenting with 432hz for some days now and I will tell you IMHO it sounds just way better than 440hz and its sounds more natural.

It's fun to experiment with the reference pitch, but it is musically much more interesting to hear what happens using unequal temperaments. Equal temperament (ET) at any reference pitch will still sound ET. What's more, with the Kronos you can use different "user scales" (as they are called in the menu).
