Re: X-form and pitch shifting
SRC will give you 100% sync, whereas the time-stretching algorithms usually shift about to make things fit as they feel works best for them.
Users here have reported times being off by a frame or more.
I remember doing a shootout between different tools.
I preferred Nuendos realtime shift which is based on Elastique.
But a question: My main issue with all algorithms is a certain grainyness in the sound, esp. dialog. You could also call it rough.
Any tips on what might be causing this? Would be very greatful for anybody sharing!!
My findings: tools are either good for long, bassy or paddy sounds and grainy/metallic on transients, or they are better for transients but hiccup and blip on those bassy, long sustained sounds.
I once tried PitchnTime which wounded great on the mix up to when the music came in... it stares warbling the pitch up and down like a record left out int the sun and going oval shaped. Totally surprised me as the settings where clearly only shifting for pal to film, and I immediately lost trust in the tool. Thisnwas freelancing somewhere else, so no time to repeat yet...
