I just got a copy of the Stones 9/19/73 show in Birmingham, England. The sound is good for an audience recording but it runs slow. When I play along with the tracks, they're all a half-key lower than they should be. I've heard people talk about speed correction......is there anything that can be done with this??? I also have several shows that run too fast.

playing speed:

movies show 24 frames/second
videos show 25 frames/second

videos of a movie are faster than the movie and the tone of a video of a movie is higher! videos are earlier over...

ummm....I don't think you understand my question. The show I got is on audio cd. I don't have it on video or any kind of film or dvd. I saw a thread about this once before and have seen information about speed correction....

no problems too speed pitch it........

thanx j.b.goode.......anybody have any idea if I can download one of these programs for speed correction?

You need an Audio Editor like Sound Forge, Audition, Gold Wave etc. for that.
most of them are not free, but Audacity does the job as well and its free.

Birm Sept 19 1973- BROWN SUGAR

don't know if this is 1 or 2nd ? the speed seems to be correct...

...indeed I use GoldWave...there's a pitch control and you can play with it...just listen till it feels right and then apply and save...just try it!

PS...I think I did speed correction on my Birmingham as well (the Oh Boy one, I believe thats a first show)

Does anyone know the reasons for that speed problems? Because I have at least three Rolling Stones boot vinyl LP's that play studio tracks such as Claudine way too slow. They are "All Inside Our Crazy Dreams", "Honky Tonk Heaven" and "Some Tramps". It's very annoying. I would be glad to know the reason why because they look great otherwise, just "unplayable".

transfer them too hardrive ...

...well, back in the old days the used to record things on tape...it wasn't that bad but with playback or trasfering to CD or HD you had to make sure it played on the right speed...not always was this done in a proper way...

Many thanks rubycatgirl. It makes more sense to me now. It's just weird to me to make nice limited editions coloured LP's without adjusting the speed, as easy it really is.

strange they speed to slow ? ..many vinyl boots are tapes wind up..because to fit a whole record..i heard that with other artists too !!!!

Yeah, it's strange, and frustrating too. I paid a lot of money for these records. It's so slow that Jagger's voice is unrecognizable. But after I fixed it in my computer it sounded very good! Many great Tattoo You outtakes appeared in great stereo quality.

Thats when a record player with pitch control comes in handy.
I have an old Technics SL QX300 where you can adjust the speed.

But even in the digital world things can go wrong.
I had a DAT tape recorded in 48kHz and digitally transferred it to pc.
but when you burn it to cd, it must be 44,1kHz.
If you don't notice it right away, the speed will be slower^^

I think the 48kHz is for DVD's. But still, strange that it gets slower. I made the same mistake once but the speed didn't change. The sound was awful though.

thanx to everybody for their help....I downloaded Audacity but can't seem to figure out exactly how to do the pitch control.....I'm still working with it but the Effects menu has a list of things and none of them work........so I dunno what the deal is......

nevermind i figured it out..........thanx for your help guys
