::::::::: I'm probably the one that's assuming incorrectly. Admittedly, I'm basing this thought off of my own experiences, so I probably shouldn't even be talking about it. To be frank, I wasn't aware that much people used A440 as a root note. Thanks for clarifying things for me. --[[User:CritDeathX|CritDeathX]] ([[User talk:CritDeathX|talk]]) 18:53, 4 June 2020 (UTC)

::::::: I don't have a single clue how you can blindly equate 63.5 with 63. 63.5 is between Eb and E, or both Eb and E, or alternatively interpreted, C and G as they are equally away from the center. Therefore, it can be concluded the MIDI keyboard is a major-centrist layout.

::::::: I never said MIDI keyboard is of any significance in choosing the reference pitch in the first place. I just pointed out its major-centrism is not for the fact C is 60, but for another reason.

::::::: I don't choose D for "it's halfway up from A". Check the following facts. (1) The signifier is in the center of the muscial alphabet. What makes D special is that "it's halfway up from A" is as true as "it's halfway down from G", so there's A-G, B-F, C-E, all centered around D. (2) The signified is in the center of the current heptatonic scale. Consequently there's (3) the center-center alignment, which I appreciate. That's the reason why I choose D.

::::::: Read my text with some care, plz.

::::::: P.S. Is this community quite in the C party? I actually see a lot of friends of D party here. [[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 11:11, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
