Sped-up or Slowed Down Audio
- Setting your audio card to play at a sample rate higher or lower than 48000 Hz will either speed up or slow down the audio.[3] Higher sample rates will result in faster audio speeds and lower sample rates will result in slower audio speeds.
| Set your audio sample rate to 48000 Hz[citation needed] |
