You can not.

Vielen Dank ! Wir haben hier in Deutschland eigentlich die Frequenz: a = 443 Hz (Orchester).
Wenn ich zum Beispiel Begleitung für Geige machen will, muss ich immer runterstimmen. Schade.
Schöne Grüße, Darek.

Thank you ! Here in Germany we actually have the frequency: a = 443 Hz (orchestra).
For example, if I want to make accompaniment for the violin, I always have to tune it down. Too bad.
Kind regards, Darek.

If you only use MIDI, Some MIDI synths and plug-ins have the capability to tune to different musical frequencies. But if you use RealTracks I do not know of an easy method to change the pitch of full spectrum audio by a fixed amount.

Wenn Sie nur MIDI verwenden, können einige MIDI-Synthesizer und Plug-Ins auf verschiedene Musikfrequenzen abstimmen. Wenn Sie jedoch RealTracks verwenden, kenne ich keine einfache Methode, um die Tonhöhe von Vollspektrum-Audio um einen festen Betrag zu ändern.

Darek, es gibt eine relativ einfache Möglichkeit, 440 in 443 umzuwandeln
1-Holen Sie sich das kostenlose Audacity https://www.audacityteam.org/download/
2- Speichern Sie Ihren BiaB-Song im Audioformat Ihres Betriebssystems – für Windows ist das eine WAV-Datei
3-Öffnen Sie Audacity und laden Sie das BiaB-Audio, das Sie in Schritt 2 gespeichert haben
4- Wählen Sie in Audacity alles aus und klicken Sie auf Effekt/Tonhöhe ändern
5--Geben Sie 440 und 443 in die entsprechenden Fenster ein und der Song wird in 443 kHz umgewandelt

Jetzt können Sie entweder zum Song mitspielen oder ihn im Format Ihrer DAW speichern.

Ich hoffe, das hilft und viel Glück

Darek, there is an relatively easy way to convert the 440 to 443
1-Get the free Audacity https://www.audacityteam.org/download/
2- Save your BiaB song in the audio format of your OS - for Windows that is a wav file
3-open Audacity and load the BiaB audio you saved in step #2
4- in Audacity select all and click on Effect/Change pitch
5--input 440 and 443 in the corresponding windows and the song will be converted to 443khz

Now you can either play along with the song or save it in the format of your DAW.

I hope this helps and good luck

Interesting article on changing the pitch in real time on a PC. Not sure about a Mac. If anyone has this plugin, read the article and try it. I don't have the plugin but I find the premise interesting.

Full Bucket Frequency Shifter:

I think it worked to a degree with these settings.

Had to do each track separately to try and get a -7 HZ shift. I could only get a -6.8 HZ shift. Not easy to tune that fine with the plugin.

Someone else play with this to see what you get.

Just tried the demo version of Pitch Wheel and it seems to work the best of all.

There is a VST3 version for PC and MAC.

The cost is $40.00 for the full version.

It may be possible to convert A440 to A443 by using the BIAB Audio Edit Window's Edit Menu.
According to ChatGPT, the cents difference between A440 tuning and A443 tuning is calculated to be +11.67 cents

Selecting the entire file of a mono or stereo track, imported audio or RealTrack, the Transpose selection ranges +/- 2400 cents

This feature will transpose the tuning of either individual tracks (including RealTracks) or a stereo mix of a BIAB project corrected to a rounded +12 cents which may be sufficient for your use.

I’ve run into this problem, though infrequently. It’s annoying in the United States because some instruments I play simply cannot be tuned that sharp. Flute is the biggest problem; you can only shorten the pipe so far. The organ where I often play is at 442 Hz, assuming normal comfortable room temperature. My trumpet tuning slides are almost all the way in, leaving little room for further adjustment. Musicians in Europe, where in some places A = as low as 432 Hz not 440, have it easier tuning down.

Cents are different from Hertz. One cent in music is 1/100 of a semitone. That’s quite a small interval. Most people cannot distinguish a difference of less than six cents. I can get down to four easily, which is kind of a game I play with audio engineers in the studio. Charlie is correct: 440 Hz to 443 is a difference of 11 2/3 cents. Quite easy for any musician to be bothered.

If I need to adjust a file a few cents, like a backing track recorded on a tape recorder whose speed wasn’t perfect, I use a stereo audio editor as mentioned above. Then I record to that track.

ps: for a fun read, look up why some people want the mostly standard A = 440 changed to A = 432.
