The story online does not seem to match any authentic musical history about solfeggio that I learned in music college, and I want to build a 9 tone scale from them to find out what they sound like as a playable scale in realtime.

The frequencies are:

1. 174Hz
2. 285Hz
3. 396Hz
4. 417Hz
5. 528Hz
6. 639Hz
7. 741Hz
8. 852Hz
9. 963Hz

(Claimed to be tuned to a diapason of A=444Hz C=528Hz)



As far as I am concerned, I can’t make any coherent musical sense of these alleged 'ancient' Hertzian frequencies as a true consonant singing solfeggio, and it appears these tones create extreme inharmonic dissonance when played together. 



When I go to build a temperament from scratch using a 9 tone scale with 5000 cents under the full rebuild option and enter the numbers in PianoTeq, they automatically enter a decimal place afterwards, and then its so far out of whack that it does not sound remotely like a music solfeggio or workable temperament.



Would anyone know how to enter these tones/numbers into the Pianoteq engine and build all 9 tones around a diapason to A444Hz (C528Hz) without them defaulting to a decimal place?

Any help would be grateful?
