I've read once it's one octave difference between some brands.
Someone on #lad said yamaha is one octave off from about everyone
else. I guess that would be one octave up. Depends on if the first
octave is 0 or 1(?).
Then, if I'm writing an application and want to
conform to the majority
of apps, what do you and others here find the most usual. Let's take
midinote 60 (sits on the middle of my evolution keyboards), what would
you call that? C5?
My Korg M1 and GEM S3 deem it a C4.
AFAIR, so does Cubase.
