Pitch Shift sounds like Phase Shifting
I have a narration track that stretched out by 10 percent (by using command J. I am not at my computer that has FCP, so I only know the keyboard shortcut) Obviously, this made the (woman’s) voice too deep. So I then changed the pitch with the Audio Filter ==>Apple filter ==> Pitch Shift (not sure if this is exactly what it is called). The voice now sounds right, but it also sounds like it is phase shifting. Any clues would be helpful. I have a 5pm Tuesday deadline.
thanks

A 10% change is actually a very large amount.
One can’t make this kind of change and NOT hear the “processing”.
Better to re-cut the voice-track with the talent, or to make cuts in-between phrases and create longer pauses in the track you have now.

i’d have to agree with Matte
run through your narration and use the blade tool to cut it at natural pauses, where you could extend the pause.
use some natural sound to fill the pauses, or grab some ‘silence’ off of the voice track, to replace the dead air introduced by the artificial pauses you introduce.in the long run it would probably sound better than pitch shifting the voice track
