Strange Tempo/Key Changes During Playback

Post by JackDULUOZ » Tue Apr 29, 2014 6:22 am

Hey, people. I was just playing back an old (not actually very old) recording I made in Live 9 and thought it sounded a little slow. I discounted that it actually was slowed down and assumed that it only seemed that way because I had not listened to the recording in a few days. I loaded up another recording I had made, and it is OBVIOUSLY slowed down. Not only that, but the key of the song has also been changed. I repeat: the song was not simply slowed down via strange phantom warping methods; the entire key of the recording is different from what is was originally recorded in, using real live instruments. I had nothing to do with either of these changes. Last night, I "updated" to OS X Mavericks. What a mistake. Not sure if this info is worth anything. I have issues with my sound drivers randomly cutting off, and now this. If anyone has had a similar problem, please give some input. I don't THINK I'm crazy, but I very well might be. Thanks in advance.

Edit: Just played back several more recordings to verify that there is actually something wrong. It is confirmed. Every song I have recorded in Ableton Live 9 has been slowed down and the key of each song has been lowered.

Edit 2: Now all songs are SPED UP and the key has been shifted UP. It's almost as if the songs I load take on the key and tempo of the previous ALS.
