Chipmunk audio

Not sure what happened here, but all of a sudden, my onboard audio plays all audio at hyperspeed.  My mp3's sound like chipmunks, windows login chime sounds like high bells, etc.  I had my system overclocked at 2480 (8x310) stably, and never had any problems.  Here's what I have done to try and fix this problem:
- Removed audio drivers and restored realtek drivers
- Tried NVidia audio drivers
- Restored known good OS image
- Disabled and reenabled onboard audio from BIOS
Still not fixed.  Is there something I'm missing here, or does this board need to be RMA'd?
Help!

True.  I'll probably go and buy one later today.  In the meantime, I've discovered that all my multimedia files play at hyperspeed, including video clips and movies straight from the hard drive.  CD's and DVD movies from the DVD-ROM also play the same way.  I've installed the latest video drivers for my ATI 9550 as well, to no effect.

  • FCPX Squirrely Chipmunk Audio

    I have a feature length documentary that sporadically but maddingly has the audio of random clips suddenly sound like Alvin & The Chipmunks, requiring me to delete the offending clip & reimport from original media. Anyone know what causes this & ways to solve and/or prevent this issue?

    Your timeline and inspector aren't cclear enough in the video to provide any clues. Post a screenshot of those windows.

  • Chipmunk audio in classic

    quicktime version currently is 7.04, have not updated to 7.1 yet and in classic it is 6.5. Running any classic apps causes the audio to be sped up and it is impossible to make any of it out. starting up the classic version of qt and manually having it open a file yields the same result. not really a huge issue, mostly kids games and such, but if any one has any ideas i'd be glad to hear them.
    thanks

    Hey did you find any solutions? I'm running into the same problems, would appreciate feedback and possible ways to fix this problem?
    Thanks!

  • Vado audio out of synch with video when I transfer it out of Vado Central

    Vado audio out of synch with video when I transfer it out of Vado Centralk I have a very important video I took that runs fine in Vado Central. However, when I try transferring it anywhere else (Facebook, Photobucket, iMovie) the audio speeds up and makes my son sound like a chipmunk.
    My computer is a MacBook OS 0.5.8, 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 processor, 2GB memory, which should meet the system requirements.
    I've been going back and forth with customer-no-service and their last suggestion was that there's nothing wrong with the camera or Vado Central and that Facebook, Photobucket and iMovie must all be independently having the exact same problem
    I'm very frustrated and unhappy. This camera is only 2 months old, but it's too late for me to return it and right now it's worthless to me. Worst of all, my very important video is ruined. Anybody have any suggestions

    Yes, it sounds the same (too fast) no matter what computer we try it from. I've tried burning a DVD every way I can think of and when we try to play it on our DVD player we still have chipmunk audio.
    I am BEYOND frustrated with Vado's customer-no-service. They keep insisting that since it will play in Vado Central I don't have a problem. I bought this camera so that I could share video with my family that's across the country. What am I supposed to do now, mail them the camera?! It's absurd!

  • No More Chipmunks?

    Theodore..? Simon..? Alvin..? Alvin? ALVIN!
    I just discovered one more new and great enhancement to GarageBand 08. I inadvertently imported a 22khz AIFF file. As HangTime was quick to answer, this used to lead to chipmunk audio. Not any more! GarageBand 08 automatically converted it to 44.1khz. Every day, GarageBand 08 looks better and better.

    did you use MIDI/software instruments or live audio? I had forgotten the style of your work.
    I'm so glad it sounded real. I am working toward educating myself in reproductive realism including convolution reverb and better sampling.
    My style of composing is much like that of P.D.Q. Bach. +The only original places in my music are those places where I forgot what I was stealing.+ Basically, since I cannot play keyboard that well, I scour the Internet for a piece that I like, then import the MIDI file into GarageBand and assign Garritan instruments. From there, it is a matter of tweaking to get it to sound real. Thanks to GarageBand 4, I can now adjust the tempo to change the flow--thanks Apple!!
    So to answer your question, there is zero audio files used. They are all Software Instruments via Garritan products.

  • Anybody can make this simple custom component a complied clip!!!?

    Hi,
    I have a custom component that has this line of code in the
    first frame:
    trace(this.Num1 + this.Num2);
    where:
    Num1:is a Number parameter created via component definition
    window
    Num2:is a Number parameter created via component definition
    window
    when I convert this component to a compiled clip it dose not
    work because the parameters disappear from the parameter panel and
    the component inspector parameters.
    I have this trace"
    NaN
    anybody can make it work!!!!
    thanks a lot.

  • Okay, better explained here. If anybody can solve this you would be amazing, please.

    gopro hero 3 black + premiere pro cs6...
    I shoot at 720p 120fps.
    Premiere doesn't want to read that as 120fps, it wants to read it at 60.
    Video is slow while the audio remains okay but cuts off far too early.
    I can go into modify the clip to make it read as 120fps but then my audio is super fast.
    Tried unlinking audio and video beforehand but it still applies when the clip is dropped to the timeline.
    I used cineform to convert my files but it ends up turning 300mb into 1.5gb...
    I think I may need to figure a h.264 codec within premiere because that is what gopro writes with I think?
    How can I fix this issue this is getting to be obnoxious...

  • Chipmunk-like Audio Problem

    Hi folks
    I was wondering if anyone else has this problem; on my 2005 imac, the audio for older games is REALLY fast, and REALLY high, ALA Alvin and the Chipmunks. Does anyone have any idea if there's a fix to this problem?
    thank you very much

  • AE CC 2014 audio preview speed up error... "chipmunking" randomly

    I"ve been having an issue where the audio during a full RAM preview with video or even if it's just audio preview (no visual) will play sped up. Sometimes it will speed up after having previewed correctly once, but every subsequent time will result in "chipmunking". This has happened on two different workstations.
    These are wav files for the audio. The framerate is correct in the preview window.

    AE 13.1.1.3
    OS 10.10.1
    iMac(27" Mid 2011)
    3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
    32 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Using internal audio outputting through the headphone jack
    Wave files are 96 KHz / 24 bit
    The problem is not consistent. And there was a new development: It also played slowed down at a lower pitch during one amusing preview.
    Maybe this is an OS X error when other sound programs are used and then quit, and the machine had to play different types of audio specs. I also use Soundtrack Pro for quick audio editing and Pro Tools for heavy sound design. But both of those programs playback audio correctly 100% of the time.
    At this time, I had quit every program and left the computer for the night (but not a restart) and now it appears to be previewing correctly. But the odd thing is that this was happening on my laptop (same specs for the OS and software) in front of a client the other week (hitting the full RAM preview resulted in accurate video, but fast, pitched up audio that ended before the video since it was pitched up)
    This problem does not extend to renders. Only previewing.

  • Audio sounds like a chipmunk

    Once in awhile while recording audio and a demo at the same time, the audio will speed up and sound like a chipmunk upon playback. I have been using both Windows 7 and Windows XP and both seem to have the same issue. It mostly occurs when clicking from one function of a website or clicking within a software program while demoing. Any ideas as to what the cause might be?

    Hi,
    Could you please tell the version of your Captivate? any additonal details regarding recording mode, settings, devices etc?
    Please try-
    -- to use a different external device to record again, I believe you used same device on both XP and 7 machines?
    -- record just the Audio for a few slides -- Audio -- Record to Slides/Project
    -- Do a test record for a different application as well, just to confirm, it has nothing to do with website.
    Thanks!

  • Audio output using Logitech Clearchat Pro USB headset sounds like chipmunks

    I use a Logitech Clearchat USB headset for online meetings daily. On my previous machine (Black MacBook 2GHz) the headphones and mic worked fine. I just upgraded to a new 2.66 Unibody MacBook Pro and while the microphone works fine but the audio in the headphones sounds like chipmunks. If I switch the audio output to the speakers, the audio sounds fine.
    Logitech claims that since the drivers the headphones use are built-in, it's not their issue. I'm curious if anyone else has experienced this problem and how I might be able to get it resolved.
    Thanks.

    ' orangehat I sincerely hope you (we?) get an answer on this one! I ordered exactly the same headset the same time I did my 17-inch MBP. Still waiting for everything to be delivered - so can't say as yet whether I have the problem too. Hoping not.
    ' Hoping there's an answer to your question anyways so I can get an idea of things before my kit lands (IF that EVER actually HAPPENS!!!)

  • Audio chipmunks - then cuts out completely

    I switched to an M-Audio MobilePre USB unit for good sound
    quality today. Now when I record narration, the first one or two
    frames are fine, then on frame 2 or 3, my voice turns into a
    chipmunk. By frame 20 the narration stops completely.
    I've changed the latency but it has had no affect.
    Please help. I have to record today!
    Thanks.

    I had the same issue when using the M-Audio unit.
    My solution was to set "Sound Scheme" to "none"
    For some reason when recording, when there is a system
    generated sound (like a click from a web page being loaded) it
    messes up the audio.
    It worked for me, I hope it works for you.

  • Importing Audio Files - Chipmunk voices!?

    Hi,
    I tried uploading an audio file to Garageband, but when I played it, it had reverted to a very high-pitched, fast, chipmunk-like voice. I don't know how or why this happened, or how to get my file back to normal.
    Anyone know what's going on or how to fix this? Thanks!
    PS --- the audio file is a simple voice recording (.wav)

  • Audio recording, chipmunk voice and stuttering?!

    Hi all, I use the Elgato Game Capture HD with my MacBook Pro to record gaming videos. I use a standard USB headset with a mic to record live commentary over the top, this setup has always worked fine for me, until yesterday.
    After recording my video, when I started editing it, I realised that in recording, the audio had caused my voice to go extremely high pitched, stutter and therefore out of sync with the video and then after about 5 minutes it just completely cut off.
    I thought at first this was a problem with the mic, so I used my more professional mic which is a Zoom Handy Recorder H2 and plugged it in via USB. Same problem. So then I thought, it must be the Elgato recording software. Tried using Audacity to record some audio, it was fine once and then same problems. Which makes me think it's something to do with my MacBook?!
    If anyone's had a similar problem or would even know how I would start to tackle this issue, i'd be incredibly grateful!
    Thanks in advance!

    I have a 5c, and here is how I was able to trim a test recording:
    1. Open the recording file in Voice Memos.
    2. Tap "Edit" at the bottom. It's between the arrow-up symbol and trash can.
    3. On the right side, near the bottom-right corner you'll see a blue box with a round blue dot at the top-left corner of it, and another one at the bottom-right. This is the Trim button. Tap it.
    4. You should now see the recording with the "wavelengths", a vertical blue line (with a blue dot at top and bottom), and on each side a red line (also with red dot at top/bottom).
    5. Touch the left red line and you'll notice you can touch/drag it to the beginning point of your desired portion of the recording.
    6. Touch the right red line and touch/drag it for the recording's end point.
    7. Hit the Play button to play just the trimmed portion, making sure it's what you want.
    8. Once it's what you want, touch "Trim". Up pops "Trim Original" or "Save as New Recording".
    On emailing it, go to the trimmed copy and click the arrow-up symbol, which will allow you to either message or email it.
    EDIT: I found you can name your recording file to what you want by tapping the default name of it. A cursor will appear where then you can delete and retype a custom file name. Great for emailing so you recipients will know what it is by looking at it.

  • Skype/Samsung TV Camera - audio and chipmunk/heliu...

    As has been posted elsewhere although not that i can find for this specific product, the Samsung TV (Skype certified) camera/mic combo CY-STC1100 has me sounding like a member of Alvin and the Chipmunks.  I've used Skype with my computer without an issue - this has to be a software issue however this device is specifically certified for use for my TV (PN59D8000 - Samung Plasma 2011). Thoughts?
