What Is Richie Bennett Audio?

Richie Bennett Audio (richiebennett.audio) is a music education and sound engineering blog. It publishes tutorials, reference guides, and articles for recording engineers and musicians. The note frequency chart is a static reference page listing note names and their Hz values, useful for quick lookup.

BeatKey Note Frequency Calculator is a dedicated interactive production tool. Type any Hz value and instantly get the nearest note, MIDI number, and cents accuracy. The tool is purpose-built for the DJ, producer, and mixing engineer workflow, not general music education.

When You Need More Than a Chart

You have an unknown Hz value

If you are looking at a spectrum analyzer and see a resonance at 293 Hz, you need to type it in and get back "D4 (MIDI 62), 0.5 cents sharp." A static chart makes you scan rows manually. BeatKey's Hz converter gives the answer instantly.

You need MIDI note numbers

DAWs, synthesizers, and drum machines use MIDI numbers, not note names. BeatKey's full 128-note MIDI chart shows every note with its MIDI number, Hz value, and enharmonic. Filterable by octave.

You are tuning 808 bass lines

The 808 Tuning Guide shows the exact Hz for every note from C1 to B3 (the standard 808 range), with annotations for sub vs boom vs punch character and DAW-specific pitch instructions.

You want everything in one workflow

Detect BPM and key with beatkey.app, look up chord progressions with chords.beatkey.app, calculate delay times with delay.beatkey.app, find scale notes with scales.beatkey.app, and look up frequencies with notes.beatkey.app. One integrated suite, all free.

FAQ

Is BeatKey completely free with no signup?

Yes. BeatKey Note Frequency Calculator is 100% free with no account required, no ads, and no usage limits. All calculations run locally in your browser.

How accurate is BeatKey's Hz to note conversion?

BeatKey uses the equal temperament formula (f = 440 x 2^((n-69)/12)) for exact Hz values. The converter shows the nearest note and the cents deviation, so you know exactly how close your input is to a pure note. Color coding shows green (within 5 cents), yellow (5-20 cents), and orange (20+ cents).

Does BeatKey cover the full piano range and beyond?

Yes. The MIDI note chart covers all 128 MIDI notes from C-1 (MIDI 0, 8.18 Hz) to G9 (MIDI 127, 12,544 Hz). The 88-key piano range runs from A0 (MIDI 21) to C8 (MIDI 108). All frequencies shown with note names, enharmonics, and MIDI numbers.

Can I look up the Hz for a specific note like A4 or middle C?

Yes. The main note frequency chart on notes.beatkey.app shows Hz for all notes by octave. You can also use the Hz-to-note converter in reverse by entering a known Hz value, or use the quick reference at the top showing common notes including middle C (261.63 Hz / MIDI 60) and A4 (440 Hz / MIDI 69).
