music pitch and tempo changed ..?

pollojk91 May 2, 2012 3:10 PM

Hi, I am currently working on a project in After Effects with pictures and other effects, as well as music.

It was working great, but for some reason the music decided to speed up and the pitch went higher as well.

Does anyone know why this might have happened or a way to fix it?

I have tried re importing the song multiple times, and I even tried a different song, but it was still high and faster than normal..

Thank you

Purge the media cache and check your audio preferences and settings.

thanks for the quick response. I tried both and it didn't change anything.
Does it matter where the cache is saved to?
if that makes sense..

Also what exactly under audio preferences would I be looking for?
Everything under audio preferences looks fine to me..

I just reinstalled everything yesterday as well.

Did you apply time-remapping on the audio file, or a precomp that contains the audio file? If not time-remapping, did you time-stretch the layer/precomp?

Hi,
honestly I havent done a thing to it, I just put it in. I'm not too knowledgable about after effects but I know some things. I did not touch the audio clip at all..

I've had this issue as well, although the audio was just there for reference and was replaced in a NLE. It's probably something to do with the type of audio file so that would be good to know

If purging the cache and resetting aufdio prefs doesn't help, indeed we need more info about what exactly you are doing and your system...

Until you come across with the information we need to make an informed diagnosis -- look at Todd Kopriva's link -- here's yet another shot in the dark.

Did you run the Adobe Creative Suite Clean Tool between uninstalling & reinstalling?
