Topic: Resampling in Soundforge

[shane]

I've been using Soundforge 6.0 for quite some time in transferring and resampling DATs but today have a encountered a new problem.  I transferred the show @48kHz and then resampled it to 44.1 w/ the anti-alias filter on and interpolation accuracy on 4/4.  It resmapled it okay but now the musci sounds very fast and the vocals are weird.  I listened to it prior to resmapling so I know it happened during the process.  Any ideas why this would happen and how to fix it?  Thanks.

what soundcard are you using?

sounds like the soundcard was still set to 48k after you resampled to 44.1

I'm using an Audiophile 2496 USB soundcard.  To the best of my knowledge there isn't thing I have to change on that.  There's a setting for maximum sample rate and that's it.

havent used the USB Audiophile, but with the PCI Audiophile, you have to manually change sample rate.
it should be the 3rd(?) tab in the monitor mixer control

Sounds like it got recorded at the wrong frequency.  I'd re-transfer it and double (or triple) check your settings prior to recording.  Including those inherent to your sound card.

im a soundforge user as well, and i think darkstarjedi is right in his guess

if you transfered your dat and it sounded fine after the transfer...and then you re-sampled the wav/aif, then i believe you will need to open up the m-audio control panel and change the current sample rate of the soundcard to the rate you resampled.

if you transferred and it sounded out of whack before you re-sampled, then i belieive you will need to re-transfer

Thanks for all the helpo guys.  I'll messa round with it this weekend again.  I know the recroding is fine so it must have been something screwy w/ the re-sample.  It such a pain in the ass to transfer 110min worth of music only to resmaple it and ruin it and have to transfer it again.  Thanks again.
