Has anyone else noticed that Zebra 2 is sharp one semitone by default? If this is just me, does anyone know what could be causing this?

Nope, all fine here. Could it be that your default preset has Transpose parameter set up sharp?

Zebra is also perfectly in tune here by default.
Maybe what EvilDragon said, or some default transpose setting left within your daw ?

Yeah, I've gone into the wrapper settings and everything. I don't see anything off. It's really weird. I'll fire up Z2 in Ableton and see if I get the same problem. Then I'll know if it's DAW-specific.

I saw this behavior on mac once half a year ago. But never on pc.

I have heard it off before, but not by default.

Hmmm. We've never heard of anything like this.

Could be a detuned default.h2p preset maybe? What if you twiddle the pitch wheel?

Okay guys, I think it's just one of those weird internal hiccups that you get from time to time within a project file. When I originally had this problem, I restarted Z2 in a new project and it was still sharp. But two days later, after restarting my computer a few times, I just opened up FL Studio and dropped a fresh instance of Z2 into the channel rack and all is good. I went to the old project file that was giving me problems and it still sounds off by about 50 cents. But in a fresh project, it sounds just fine. It was a simple project. I'll just set it up from scratch and save over it.

That inspired a chuckle. I would laugh harder if you were correct. FL is solid.

I've had this happen sometimes, and I think every time it has happened is when I try to load it up while something else is already going (as in another plugin via wrap-around stand-alone or the transport in the DAW is still running). Seems to be tied to the controllers in my case, as if in trying to keep my two controllers separate, it bumps one to a different tuning.

If it's really a semitone (and not 50c), then it could be a MIDI-learned 'Fine' knob (see Global panel).
