OK guys,
I just want to know if I am doing something wrong here. For the record, I am a pro sound engineer who works on any record oriented DAW (logic, pro tools ,samplitude ,nuendo , bla bla), and that's the fisrt time I chose to work with Live, as a multi-send player for a theatre live set up (10 outs playing different things at the same time). For its purpose it's great, really convenient, but soundwise ?!?!

I am not using any warp (it is turned off), and am playing 16 bit/44,1.wav
no plug ins, nothing. Just routing the clips out of the RME Fireface 400, which I know quite well and doesn't sound like that at all.

And it's not a matter of levels. Hi's are clearly cut above 8Khz, bass enhanced around 120, and loss of dynamics and stereo spread.

The clips are classical recordings, really good ones (I discovered that with the CD!!)


I'll try the repitch thing ( but WARP is OFF !)

I am really surprised
