Hello everybody,
I am wondering to create projects at a different tuning reference than the standard 440Hz (e.g. 432Hz…)
Does it exist the possibility to set it in the project preferences, allowing to have the full potential of e.g. VST instruments, variaudio and all features sensible tu tuning?
Thank a lot for advicing!

No. There is no global tuning offset.
I was also trying to find this last week. I was trying to correct the intonation of the singer from a band I recorded in stereo in the 70s. This was slightly before the availability of guitar tuners and the band seems to be 43 cents sharp! I unmixed the vocals in Spectral Layers and found that it is not possible to alter the basic pitch in Cubase 13 Pro’s variaudio. You can do this a bit in the Melodyne (available in a previous Cubase version). So I had to lower the pitch of the vocal part, correct it, then render it and pitch it up again. Of course I could have repitched the whole track in the first place - but I didn’t wan’t to reprocess more than I needed to. (The drums from a single generation reel to reel (Teac) sounded amazing).
It seems somewhat eurocentric to fix the pitching of this algorhythm to A440Hz equally tempered scale, this is not universal!
Thanks everybody for feedback.
This would be an interesting functionality to have in a DAW… hopefully Steinberg guys would think to this in the next future!
