I think he needs to clean out the bong.... He uses the term HALF PITCH OR FULL PITCH is he talking semitones?? give me a break. Nice recording. Maybe when he transferred it to his USB TAPEDECK it got slowed down.......

The mastering deck is a D5 - analog - entirely possible this persons deck ran a bit slow...making the tapes sound a bit fast when played on other gear...

I d/l I Need a Miracle and it could have been ever so slightly pitched up. It is so hard to tell that it barely matters. Certainly not drastic if at all.

is it possible that the board pitch is slow? if he's stating this about multiple AUDs (assuming different sources) and using the SBD as a basis of comparison wouldn't that be the likely culprit?
