Just making the switch to Twisted Wave and a Mac from Adobe Audition 3 and.a PC. Having trouble figuring out how slighly lengthen or shorten a track without changing the pitch. In Adobe I just enter the length I want and "return"....When I attempted the same thing in Twisted Wave I got some kind of whining artifact even when trying to shorten a 30.7 second track to 30 sec.
Thanks in advance for any ideas.

I don't have your answer, however, did you know there's a Twisted Wave group on Facebook? They seem to cover important issues. Also, check YouTube for videos on Twisted Wave. There are many dozens.

It would be highly unusual for two totally different programs to work the same way...with the same keyboard shortcuts.

I see that TwistedWave does have the ability to do what you need...

"7.8 Change pitch and speed

This function allows you to change the pitch and speed of a sound file. It can be used to change the speed without affecting the pitch, changing the pitch and keeping the original speed, or any combination of pitch shifting and time stretching. "

Perhaps look here.

This is not exactly an answer to the original question, but I have found the "Change Tempo" function in Audacity to be very effective. I don't use Audacity for recording, but if I need to time squeeze something, I have found that I can speed up an audio cut by as much as 8 or 9 percent without any artifacts. When I'm done, I just export the file and re-open it in the DAW I use for recording and editing.

Well...the problem seems to have worked itself out. Most probably operator error. Embarrassed
