TOPIC: Noob Question On Tuning

Hi All,
Apologies up front if this has been asked before.

This is about tuning a sample and an instrument.
I have a sample that in sample view shows 60C. But the little cents indicator is to the right saying 30.
Now if i understand correctly that means the sample is 30cents above 60C.

Knowing this when I create an instrument that uses this sample what values should I put in the tuning (cents) table?
Is it -30 ?

Additionally, most of the tutorials on soundfonts dont explain this well, and often dont even put a cents tuning figure in.
I can only assume that there samples are bang on. Unless I'm not getting something ?

thanks,
Paul

follow the indicator, +3=+3, -3=-3.
you can check by placing the sample twice in your Instrument,
one with its Root key and +30 cents
and the other sample with the Root key + 1 semitone minus 70 cents
