Do you mean the octave? That's the only way I can fix the volume, since I have to import it into Audacity rather than record it from Windows Media Player. Or do you mean the timing is off? o.oPrincess Aleks link said:it's... off key...

Oh, I never knew that, I was just told that the change had to be under 12 notes. As for the volume, I haven't been trained to notice the differences between octaves or anything like that, so it just sounds like the volume has changed. I've tried to find out how to do it on Audacity, but no tutorials have helped, sadly.Princess Aleks link said:I dont understand how making it higher pitched makes it louder, you can just edit it lower. (even audacity does that,)
But I mean, when you change the pitch of a song from say C5 to lower, you have to do it by 12 notes even (1 octave). So C5 to C4. Putting it on another pitch would only sound good if you also pitched the song, but usually people can hear the difference.
It's the basis of music theory, and really just a rule-of-thumb. You can change octaves but don't pitch up or down randomly, always do it by 12 notes.
