Subject:Time Compress/Expand question...

I have Sound Forge XP 4.0. When I use the Time Compress/Expand function, it gives me a kind of choppy result. For instance, I had a violin sample that I wanted to expand to sustain the note. I set the Time Cmprs./Exp. for the Solo Instruments setting and increase the final length. The sample becomes longer, but it now sounds unsmooth, and choppy. Am I doing something wrong? Is there another way to do this?
Thanks,
James

Hi James

When ever you expand a sound file you are taking some small pieces of the file and inserting them into the original file, to create a longer file. Try this again but this time only expand the file by a smaller amount.
