In the Caustic wave editor if you import your mix and go to Tools, Pitch/Time, turn the Cents knob left so the display shows 98.2% that should be pretty close (440 × 98.2 = 432.08). But I generally suck at math so maybe someone else can offer better advice.
Then just click Apply and save that as your 432Hz mix.
I guess that might be fun to play around with but not sure how seriously anyone should take the claims about 432Hz being particularly special in any way beyond personal preference.
@stoons music // thanks for the tip I'll try it out! Yeah I heard a lot about that.. unfortunately people mislead it with strange teories from the internet. My ear just likes it more that way, I also heard a lot of pink floyd, micheal jackson, xxxtentacion music was made with that frequency. Is it true music was almost all in 432 before it was standarized to 440? Hope they're not all crazy but i learnt in music following your ear is funnier and when i bump into 432hz music I tend to like it more compared to 440. I don't really care why I just want to try it
Hi Aldereal. You should read the articles. Quite interesting. They talk about the historical tunings and no, music was not almost all in 432 before 440 became standard :)
Here's an excerpt:
" Fiction: Verdi has used 432 Hz for all his music.
Fact: Verdi used several tunings across his life. As an opera composer he was aware of the pitch inflation (pitch standards rapidly rising to achieve a brighter orchestral sound) that was happening in his time, and was concerned it was putting a strain on singers voices as they struggle to hit the high notes on a score.
Verdi has requested his Requiem to be tuned to 435 Hz (according to the 1859 French “diapason normal” standard) and in a later letter he has expressed a slight preference for 432 Hz. Verdi is the only known composer to even hint towards 432 Hz, and it was obviously for completely different reasons than cosmic spirituality.
Fact #5
Fiction: 432 Hz is the way everybody used to tune in the past, but we have now forgotten the ancient wisdom of our ancestors.
Fact: Musicologist Alexander John Ellis has searched, measured and documented ancient pipe organs and tuning forks. Here is a graph representing his most important findings—as you can see the only mention of 432 Hz was proposed in Italy in 1880 (by Verdi), and we already know that this was done for practical reasons rather than spiritual ones. The fact is that before standardization, the pitch of A fluctuated heavily between 400 Hz and 460 Hz. "
Seems there were no real prevalent tunings, they generally didn't even have the ability to measure them accurately. So essentially "standard" tuning could be different from one city to the next.
Nothing wrong with liking 432. Drop tunings are common, many like Hendrix and others preferred to tune their guitars down 1/2 step.
Strange theories or unrealistic claims aside, I'm with you, if you like the sound of something that's all that matters.
Thanks to both for the help it's really appreciated! I read the forum post linked above and I really don't understand why some people get so mad and offended when you bring up frequencies in music hahah.. things are one way until they aren't no more, in music and in science. I believe artists, like scientists, should keep experimenting even when nobody agrees with it

This might, still, work. Can't say, I've, ever, tried it .

Cool. I had a recollection global tuning was available with the "secret numpad" but was frankly too lazy to look it up ;)
Nice to know that option is available though.
Good seeing you around.
