random entire midi track pitch changes after recording track

[bitterkitten]

Ok. I noticed somebody posted this problem to the Mac pro tools area, and I was told that the fix was to "turn off pitch change" under Midi settings. I don't see the setting they're referring to.. however!

This problem has been going on for years. I think I've had it since 6.x, it would happen once in a while... but since I've had 8.x the last few months, it happens all the time. I can record tracks, save em... then I can leave the machine on overnight, do nothing, and when I come back the next day to play the thing, the chance that one of the tracks I previously recorded midi data to will now have mysteriously changed the pitch of the entire track up or down a step or two is pretty good. Sure, I can go in and transpose the thing, but then when I save it and restart, the pitch is wack because I've changed it from where it's "supposed" to be. The only fix I know of is to reboot XP. Seems to happen regardless of midi instrument I use, or no instrument and use an external synth/source for playback.

Anyone have any info on this? I know this sounds minor, but this is so infuriatingI'm thinking of chucking PT for good just because I use midi so much now.

Thanks very much PT-ers. I really appreciate your assistance.

e!

Im having the exact same problem, Unfortunately for me, my pitch has permanently changed. Seems like the whole eq of the track has been affected too. Im at a loss on this one, my midi track is totally garbage now unless I come up with a fix.
