I've had the Audio Animator for a while now, but haven't used the digitizing
option very much.  Tonight, though, I gave it a whirl and was a bit pissed-
off to find that the playback rate doesn't track the record rate.  What
happensis this:  I record at 24000 samples/sec, and set the playback rate
to match.  I record my voice, and the AA plays back my voice sat a somewhat
lower playback rate.  The net result is that music comes out transposed
half step down or so.  It's impossible to match the playback rate to the
record rate through experimentationn without a great deal of pain.

Before I call AE customer service on Monday, I was wondering if anyone
else out there had similar problems.  Any idea what the problem could
be?  I'm hoping it isn't a hardware problem.  Could it be the AA software
I have?  It is the 1989 "Audio Animator Program Disk" Version 1.3.
