Gregg,

We have an update in the Download area you should get when you
have a chance. Acid is at version 1.0d so you have the latest there
but the CD Architect update gives you version 4.5b of XP and
includes some handy tools for editing samples for Acid.

The file in Acid that sounds strange is probably being stretched and
this is causing it to sound filtered. Highlight the file and go to
Properties. If you set it to One shot it will not be stretched. Or
for longer samples and tracks you might not wish to load into RAM,
use Disk-Based as type under Properties.
