  • Sound quality on faster speeds

    Posted by JohnE on May 29, 2024 at 9:57 pm

    Has anyone else noticed the sound quality is strange (warbled and wavering) when playing videos at a faster than 1x speed? I have found this on my computer and phone on the 30 Days to Play play along videos.

    Yes, it is so on any device I use. But it is still functional for me.

    It didn’t used to be like this. I’ve been doing TAC for 3 years now and the distortion started this year. I have a Mac and normally use Safari. When I switch to Google Chrome, I don’t usually get the distortion.

      You and I are remembering differently. As long as the speed has been an option I clearly remember it being distorted in either direction fast or slow. I use Chrome. When the distortion bothered me I would switch to metronome. Sometimes I will slow it down to check something but, for me, the metronome is the better option, once I learn the sequence. There is more room to get better faster. Never never chase speed. Gotta sneak up on it so it does not know you are there.

        That’s so weird Jeff. I never had a problem with distortion until this year. I used to practice at varying speeds all the time. I wonder why it’s like that.

        I can’t do open mic online either due to distortion. It could be just my cut rate bargain basement computer running chrome.

    Just posted same question. Kind of annoying to not be able to change speed
