I want Vegas 5 to leave my audio alone!

Yes, I'm serious.

I pulled some clips into V5, and they are showing as Beatmapped, etc., and depending on how they are read, Vegas is automatically stretching or shrinking them. I've looked through prferences, and can't find a swithc to turn this off. I've got a a 60-second music bed recorded at 90bpm that is now 45 seconds long and have to go into properties to make it 60 seconds again. Do I now have to right click on EVERY audio file to set the clip properties to "NONE" because someone decided to try and make Vegas a lite version of Acid? I don't even see where I can set the "assumed" tempo of my video project (which shouldn't be assumed at all...).

Thanks in advance...

The project tempo is set under Project Properties/Ruler, but I don't see any way to make it not apply the tempo to the beatmapped files. I suppose that's why they are beatmapped, but I agree it would be useful to be able to switch it off for the whole project.

So I have to remove the metadata from anything I create in Acid so that it will always play correctly in Vegas, which now has a tempo setting that can't be turned off?

We need to be able to turn this feature off. This is a real pain to have to pre-prep all audio to make sure it's going to play corredtly in an "audio program."

It appears that any audio that contains metadata (wma, mp3, acid-generated wavs) will automatically do this. If you change one, right click it and copy, select all other files and paste attributes.
It is irritating, at best.

At least give us the ability to set the default audio clip proerty to NONE.

Grrr........

Yes, t'would be good. There's nothing in the internal prefs that can be set to ignore this either...
