Default Sample Rate Conversion

For whatever reason, I have some spoken word cassettes that were

best way to digitally correct the tempo and pitch? Using Audition, I
recorded a segment at 88.2 and converted the playback sample rate to
44.1. Tempo and pitch are correct. Is that procedure the best way? Doing
them in software, at least using Audition, is not the way to go.


I assume that you cannot play back at 15/16 ips.

Sample-rate conversion should not affect the pitch or the speed of the
audio at all. Changing the header info will though, by fooling the
playback dev ice..

But you would be better to edit the playback speed in your editing
software, ignoring sample-rate as an issue entirely.
