Guys my music sounds great, but the voices all sound like alvin Chipmunk or donald duck? Anyone know what is wrong and how to FIX it? I have windows XPfor instance the deep voice of dean martin sounds more like the voice of a 16 yr old wayne newton!!!Do you have any software that manipulates sounds?
When did this problem occur?
What Operating System are you using?http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/knowledgecenter/mediaadvice/0067.mspx

Why does my music sound like chipmunks are singing?

Don't worry, small RODENTS haven't set up housekeeping in Windows Media Player. Instead, your sound card's clock most likely has a timing problem. To fix the problem, try reducing the hardware-acceleration level for your audio card by doing the following:

1. In Control Panel, open Sounds and Audio Devices.

2. On the Volume tab, in the SPEAKER settings area, click the Advanced button.

3. In the Advanced Audio Properties dialog box, click the Performance tab, and then adjust the Hardware acceleration slider control to adjust the clock timing for your sound card.

Keep in mind that, if your sound card supports multichannel (5.1) audio playback, turning off hardware acceleration (by moving the slider to None) will cause the sound card to play all multichannel audio in stereo (two speaker) sound.

If you can't fix the problem by adjusting hardware acceleration, check for updates for your sound card by doing the following:
• Check for sound-card driver updates.
• Check for Microsoft DirectX updates.Thanks so much BroniThe one time I didn't look in Google.What's the outcome?Quote from: Carbon Dudeoxide on July 13, 2008, 01:37:21 PM
