v-vocal/Audiosnap weird noises

When I try to use audiosnap to edit some timing issues or v-vocal, after fixing the timing, the audio starts to sound wierd.
I don't know if I'm alone on this, or other people have this. I am not editing the time for percussion clips, rather continuous like an organ.

    It could just be the auditioning engine. If you bounce the clips, do they still sound weird?

    You have to be careful with audio snap. I find that sometimes the way it moves transients it sounds more like slurring then moving the transient points. Sometimes I have to create an extra node before the transient I want to move, in order to get it to move the transient the way I want.

    I've only used v-vocal for manual correction, which it is awesome at. For timing on vox, I always splice, nudge, and stretch in track view.

    If you post a sample, it might help.

    Cheers,

    I found out what the problem is, but don't know how to fix it.

    It speeds up the way the note changes and starts to sound wierd. and it also changes how fast the volume goes up and down with the pump because the instrument I am editing the time for is a pump instrument like an acordion.

    I don't know if this is relevant to what you're trying to do, but V-Vocal will only work properly on single, monophonic lines.

    Any attempt to edit poly material will fail miserably, as V/V wasn't designed for it.

    I don't think I've ever heard anyone complain that AudioSnap makes audio sound strange. It's more understandable with V-Vocal.
    What are you actually doing and does the exact same thing happen in both AS and V-V (hard to believe that could be the case)?

    If you change timing by stretching the audio instead of moving audio portions, then what you describe is logical. I don't remember the details and I'm not at my DAW. Does the pitch change? If so, shouldn't there be some kind of check-box to prevent it??

    If you stretch/shrink the audio, theres no way to prevent the vibrato or pump-effect from slowing down/speeding up. It's as if there was a vocal "da-da-daa", if you stretch the audio, you also stretch the gap between every "da".
    PS: BTW, Sharpdion, you have so much room dedicated for your signature, that you could as well write there some info that helps giving answers to your questions, like PC and soundcard specs.
