As I explained in my preceding message, Pitch Shift in Sound Forge is 
not the correct tool for Jamie's needs. He should use Pitch Bend.

I agree that the name "Pitch Shift" for speeding up or slowing down a 
recording is confusing. Actually, Sound Forge uses the same tool both 
to change the speed of a recording and to adjust the pitch without 
changing the speed (there's a "Preserve Duration" option that makes 
it do the latter). But when I'm explaining how to use a piece of 
software, I need to use the terminology of the software to avoid confusion.

I'm sorry that I didn't understand what Jamie needed in the first 
place. I hope I've cleared up any confusion.
