That's a time stretching fact - it shouldn't "lose" 2-3 beats, I know it will sometimes slide out...

Can you record a sample or three?

Yeh, I've been doing that for a while and wondered how many people actually put .calm instead of .com.

I do "calm" because some of the new crawlers are more intelligent and can read "dot com" but I don't think the script kiddies have made it look for "dot calm" yet.

Yeah, but I didn't see what the problem was... ?? Could you describe it a bit better?

What happens when you use the pitch effect onboard the mixer is it effects the ENTIRE frequency spectrum, the vocals, the bass, the highs ... everything. If you shift it by -6%, that's one semitone (same as going from a C to a B on the piano). For example, middle C on a piano is 440Hz, and a kick-drum may be down around 20-80Hz. The beats are being effected more drastically than the other frequencies because of the logrythmic nature of the audio spectrum, and some may sound like they "disappear".

It's not possible to link the pitch shifting to the BPM because there's nothing to really "sync" with a tempo. Are you wanting it to only apply the effect between beats or something? That would make for a weird warbling sound.

I hope I'm explaining an answer what you're asking, it sorta makes sense, but not completely.
