Notation
SPN
MIDI is the note number synths and software pass around (0–127). Pitch class is the note without its octave — all the F♯s share one. Enharmonic spellings (F♯8 and G♭8) name the same pitch two ways. This note falls outside the 88-key piano, so it has no piano key number.

Every row is F♯8 — only the A4 you tune to changes. A frequency scales straight with the reference: F♯8 at 432 Hz is the 440 Hz value times 432⁄440.
