Exported wav files "warble"

Started by Luke B, October 14, 2009, 04:09:03 PM

When I export a completed track to a wav file on my PC, it ends up noticeably a tone higher, with a distinct fluctuating pitch to it. While I'm a big fan of the Chipmunks and their musical genre, that wasn't quite the finishing touch I was after...

Is this something anyone else has encountered, and how do I fix it?

Warbling is a common problem with MP3 compression but you shouldn't hear any warbling with WAV format as it's not compressed. See this message. I can't imagine why the pitch would change. Are you sure it's changing? Have you tried other media players such as VLC or winamp?

Are you running any SRS - WOW software ( common with many systems and sound cards) ?

I find it causes play back problems.

Cheers guys. Compared playback with another computer, which sounded fine, so it appears to be something on my system - I did find some SRS software on the hard drive, so that could be the issue.

Case solved, ta
