Default Help!...

I've noticed that I just recorded some acoustic guitar tracks and I went back to playing along with the tracks and it seemed like the tracks have changed key. I recorded all guitars in standard 440 tuning but it seems like my guitar is now flat. Any ideas!!......

Did you change your clocking? Sometimes if the external clock is different from the internal clock the pitches will change (or if there is just something wrong with the internal clock).

If it sounds flat then it is playing a little slower.

If you recorded it using an ADAT bridge that was set to 48KHz OR just at 48KHz and then played it back using a sample rate of 44.1KHz it would give you this effect (sounding flat).

The only way to change the sample rate in a session is to have another digital clock controling it. I would create a new session at 48KHz and import the offending audio files. See if this makes a difference.

Describe all your equipment. Some folks use a digital preamp via SPDIF or Lightpipe but they only turn it on when they record(or forget) and this is exactly what happens
