Every once in a while, when I burn an mp3 or wav file onto a CD-R, it comes out all speeded up, like the chipmunks. Even though other tracks burned during the same session onto the same CD-R come out at normal speed. Anybody else encountered this? Any idea why that would happen?
p.s. I must confess, it's kinda fun to hear my steel licks come out that fast! |

Jim,
Check the burning rate. If the burning rate exceedes the disk rate it provides a speeded up effect on the disk. It will not play on no player but, seems to play on the pc. At least this is what I found when this problem happened to me; I forgot to check my disks burning rate. Hope that helps.

Thanks, Fred. I'm back from Cleveland now. I'm working on a new solo CD, which is a combination of old rock/pop tunes and jazz/bebop stuff. Not western swing, really, but I hope you'll like it anyway. Should be ready in a few more months. Thanks for asking!

Hi Jim..other than selling them at Christmas, which is a great idea by the way..let me tell you what I did experience which totally baffled my little jello brain..at the time..
I had some MP3's that I burned onto a CD, some were fast and some were regular speed
( non- chipmonk) These were tunes that I recorded on the 8 track and it was driving me nuts..I refused to listen to anyone tell me what was wrong..cause it didn't make sense..thats where the jello brain part comes in..
Here's what I was doing and just maybe it is simialr to what you do..
I was transferring my digital workstation tracks to my PC as wave files, then converting them to MP3 with Musicmatch.
Here's what I found after actually reading a forum members reply to my dilemma.
I was recording some wave files at 48khz thinking I would get a better quality wave, which is true..but when you convert to an MP3 at CD quality 44.1 khz.....yipes..it was a mismatch..48 is not 44.1.
So I now have added the 44.1 khz wave recording format to my " This is how you do it " rule book and all of those speed issues went away.
Now I'm working on the actual music being played and trying to figure out how to fix that..but I can't find anyplace on the PC to to make a mouse click which will fix that .

Thanks, Tony.
The last time this happened to me, it was on a file that I had played out of a tape recorder (analog) into the soundcard and recorded as a wav file, then converted to mp3, as you indicated (or maybe I just burned it as a wav? I don't recall) But in any case, I don't think I know how to make sure it gets recorded into the sound card at 44.1 I'll look around, though, and see if I can figure it out. I use PolderbitS. |

Jim, on my PC , and probably many others, my wave record format is set at the Accessories/
Entertainment/Media rack . When I start recording a wave file ( after clicking on the record button ) the menu bar has a WAVE drop down menu and thats where I can set the wave file format. It may even be under sound recorder.
I am not at all familiar with your program but maybe it's just an upfront program using the default PC settings..
It shouldn't be to hard to figure out..it's just right there inside your monitor screen somewhere...
good luck
