Longtime Tracktion user here, confronting a problem I've never encountered before. I just exported a song I've been working on for some weeks, and as soon as I started listening to the exported file, I sensed something was off. It seemed like the tempo of a Tracktion Delay plugin was wrong.
I went back to the mix, and checked. The tempo was set correctly, and sounded good. But it sounded different in the rendered version.
I conducted a short test, soloing the percussion parts that the delay was applied to. When I rendered this test section, the delay tempo is totally off -- it's much slower than it's supposed to be, and much slower than it sounds in the mix.
In 17 years of using Tracktion (I'm currently using 6.3.1), this has never happened to me! Can anyone offer any insights?

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried rendering at 1x speed. The problem persists. I've also restarted Tracktion and rebooted Windows, to no avail.

UPDATE: I seem to have fixed the problem. I was using Tracktion with Windows audio (because my sound card is old and prone to crashing, requiring a full Windows reboot to reset it). The Windows audio sample rate is 48 kHz. But I was rendering material from Tracktion at 44.1 kHz. When I switched to using my sound card, with a sample rate of 44.1 kHz, I was able to render clips with the correct delay tempo.
Weird.
