Actually, I read an article about A432 being what is known as the "God Tone."  
Some people apparently think it is the original A.  so, these folks appear to 
want to record their music with this reference.  that said, it would be 
interesting to know how you retune a soft synth.  It must be possible since 
Europeans are accustomed to pianos tuned at A442.  Remember that A440 is a 
standard created by the AFM.  It is arbitrary, and only in North America.  so, 
there must be a solution.

Let us know,
Kevin
