Pitch/Time Shift glitches in PT 7.4

[aperez]

Hi, first post here. I've searched the forum but haven't found any related post.

Since I installed v7.4 I get glitches in the audio when I use the Audiosuite pitch shift/time stretch tools. The effect is more noticeable when I pitch down than when I pitch up and becomes worse with higher values of pitch shift.

Being one of the tools I use recurrently, it is starting to become a real obstacle.

Has anyone had this problem or knows what might cause it?

Thanks!

forgot to mention...

I'm running PT 7.4cs3 in OSX 10.4.11 on a MacBook Pro with a 2,33GHz processor
Memory is 2GB 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM
and interface is Mbox2 Mini

cheers

Can you explain what you mean by 'glitch'? It's just that there are limitations as to what this plug-in can do without the processing introducing audible artifacts particularly where polyphonic audio is concerned (e.g guitar). It might be that the plug-in simply cannot do what you're asking of it transparently.

thanks for replying Phil. You are right my description isn't clear. By glitch I mean audible clicks that weren't there before. I don't mean the pitch bend artifacts that make things sound metallic but very short digital clicks that appear randomly.

As I said, I use this tool extensively and I never noticed this effect when running 7.3 ... I am even thinking on downgrading now...

(thought i posted this already but it hasn't come through)

It seems to be difficult to get a post read due to the huge amount of issues that people bring up. In a last attempt to put this forward...

The problem persists and I am now thinking of downgrading to from 7.4 back to version 7.3. Are there any known issues with this kind of operation? Is it possible to open sessions created in 7.4 with 7.3?

Any comment will be much appreciated

Thanks in advance!
