The default or standard tuning for typical western musical instruments
is at 440Hz. There are variations, when it comes to concert pitch. I
believe that the Americans sometimes choose 441 or 442Hz. But every
hardware synth - that I know of - is tuned to 440Hz with a well-tempered
scale.
If your scale is well-tempered one Hertz shouldn't matter much though, unless
at very low frequencies.
Best wishes,
Jeanette
