How to render the previewed frenquency ?

Hello I might have a simple question for you guys but I asked around and couldn't find the answer:

On the below left of the window you can see a "Rate" bar that you can willingly adjust, the yellow arrow below it will change the frequency of the previewed video and/or audio. I would like to apply the same effect at an entire section and render it. You can already change the velocity of a clip or changed the properties to shorten it but none of that will adjust the pitch and it's quite hard to find the right frequency ; where you can simply put the yellow arrow at 1.50 it might be harder to accelerate a clip of 42.15s for the same result, let alone with a weirder frequency.

So in short I would just like to change the frequency of my audio the same as in the preview but I can't find how.

Thank you for reading.

The rate bar only affects the playback back speed when scrubbing - that is previewing the timeline - in Vegas Pro (assuming that you are referring to Vegas Pro as no product name or version number was given in the post). See Scrubbing in the user manual for more info. The scrubbing rate will not in any way change the speed of any video or audio (including pitch) when rendering the project.

If you want to vary the velocity of a video and/or audio event on the timeline which will render at the varied speed, use the Velocity envelope for the video event (R click the video event and select Insert/Remove Envelope from the context menu that opens and then select Velocity - see Event Envelopes in the user manual for more info about how to adjust the velocity); and to the audio event add the Audio Event FXs of Time Stretch and Pitch Shift.

In the audio 'Event' properties you can change the length and pitch and select the Classic or Elastigue time/pitch shift.
If you have Sound Forge Pro, you can change the sample rate, which will change the speed and pitch up/down, then resample back to the standard 48k, 44.1k. or whatever it was.

Yes since I'm on vegas site and I only use Sony Vegas Pro I didn't thought about mentionning, my bad. I don't have Sound Forge Pro but it seems it will give me the same result to have to tweak until I find the exact settings the change of frequency does.
Time stretch and Pitch Shift doesn't give the same result but it the close I'm getting so far, thank you both for the quick response !
