I used the multitrack option to record a show (Pressed R for record on the track and the red button at the bottom- when I went to edit the recording it was about 150 percent speed of the actual conversation... and had crackling and hisses....

Does anyone know what caused this and if it can be fixed?  I am a beginner, but have recorded about 100 times and have never run into this problem,f

    I would say that your session sample rate doesn't match the sample rate that you recorded at

    eg session is 48k and the audio file is 44.1k

    The crackling could be that your buffer size is way too low - try increasing it

    Thank you SO VERY MUCH.  I especially appreciate your telling me exactly how to edit the buffer.

    What would you recommend?  I assume that "Latency" is the same as buffer?  That same screen says Sample Rate, but how do i find the other measure that you say may be off?
    Thank you again.

    Latency is affected by buffersize

    The fact that there are different speeds very fast then slower indicates that there may be an issue on that USB input


    What is the USB microphone that you are using? Is it's internal sample rate also 44.1k?
