When warping long songs, the bass frequencies sounds like it has vibrato or wobling.

Check the clip properties window for Beats Tones or Textures... I have yet to figure which one is the best algorithm to use. With Tones and Textures you adjust the grain settings which probably resolve the bass warbling....

If you play bass audio files more than + or - 3 or so bpm different from the original tempo, you get that warbling / digital artificact effect.

With some tracks you really need to play them as close to original bpm as possible. Deeper the base freqency, longer the cycle, the more the artifacts.
