Different Plugins are tuned differently

Heyo I'm new to LMMS. I am using sfxr and triple oscillator on the same song. When I play a middle C, they play different notes. It's not just a different note chromatically, where I could use that little green box to fix it, it is completely out of tune. This is the default preset of both plugins. Is this a known issue? Is this supposed to happen? :| :?

Welp thx everyone

Ouch

No, but sfxr is not really an instrument. sfxr is a effect generator I think it has been 'tuned' in an attempt to make both 'whushy' airy and metallic klonks feasible with a minimum of setting changes.
I dont think it has been tonal tuned at all.. But you want to use it as an instrument- You should be able to tune it with the PITCH dial

Either by ear, or use a graphical tool, of witch several free are available

I actually got interested in this ;p, so i did the footwork
The tonal settings for sfxr sine is:
base-note D#
PITCH -57 cent

Also, the base note was E, not D# when I tested it out. Thanks again! ;)
