Logic Pro 9 Global key change affects audio vocal

[Hankfan]

I corrected the key signature in Global tracks, and three already-recorded vocals now sound as if I had processed them through a voice-disguising filter. I returned to the original key signature, and the problem went away. Inexplicable. Am I stuck with the wrong key signature?

What plug-in inserts are on your vocal channel strips?

 

[Hankfan]

Thanks for responding. The three affected tracks have no plug-ins inserted.

Hi George,

That is VERY strange. Really the only way any audio can/should be affected by the Key Signature track is if they are Apple Loops.

This _shouldn't_ make a difference either way in this case, but just to rule out possible voodoo: what happens if you disable the "Follow Tempo" checkbox for these audio regions in the Region Inspector?

And again, just to rule the extremely unlikely, is Flex Time off?

 

[Hankfan]

Eli, you are correct. I've turned off the "follow tempo" checkbox in each of the tracks, and the problem is solved. Many thanks!

there may also have been a rubber chicken on the track

Great! Glad it was a simple fix!

Rubber chicken ???
