HI TEAM
I recorded a tour using an x32 on 48khz 24bit, the last show I had a different x32 that was set up in 441khz 24bit and i used the same project as I used a show file, however my project was set up at 48khz 24bit (like the other consoles).
What I have realized has now happened is that the speed and pitch has changed on the last recording as there was an obvious sample rate mismatch/clock issue.
is there any way to rectify this problem as the final show is the one everyone wants to use?
Create a new project with the desired sample rate (assume 48kHz?) and re-import the 44.1kHz files again, but choose the options to copy and convert the files (“Convert to project settings | Sample rate”).
You need to edit or rewrite the wav headers to correct the embedded sample rate information to match the rate the interface was set at. Then you can either convert as above or use in a 44.1k project.
On windows easiest option is this

Or in any Wavelab (elements or trial should be fine)
Import audio, in audio properties select the correct rate.
Save as and set the correct rate and bit depth in the save dialogue.
No, that will not work because …
… therefore the file was recorded at 44.1kHz, and must be resampled to 48kHz when importing to an existing project which is set to 48kHz.
If the files are already imported into one big project (!?) then the SR conversion can be done in the pool (Ctrl-P).
Nope.
The audio is 44.1k but it’s flagged in the header as 48k because that’s how Cubase was set when recording. If you try and sample rate convert that to 48k Cubase does nothing because it thinks it’s already 48k…and if you force a conversion you end up with wrong speed audio.
Once you reflag the audio as 44.1k in the header then you can use it in 44.1k project or sample rate convert to 48k. No other way this will work.
… in which case we need the OP to clarify, how, exactly, the …
… and …
How could that work?
If you change Cubase rate the interface should follow and if you change the interface rate with Cubase open it pops up a message about sample rate having changed and you have the option to change project settings or allow different sample rates…I guess they chose the wrong option!
